Not as we thought it would be

Our tour guide was GREAT / Problem = to many other Ghost tours (from other companys) run into one another / walk thru as guide is talking / causes our group to miss out on talk on several places. This should be worked out , as stated before our guide (young lady ) was great . Thank You Roden Family

We have participated in other tours in Charleston, including other ghosts tours. The group leader was the weakest we have experienced; not particularly well spoken nor did she use antidotes to improve the experience. Had this been the first tour we had taken, it is unlikley we would do it again.

beauty , history & great ghost stories
Thu, Aug 2, 07   7:30 PM Litchfield Female 30-39 Local Family With Children
My family and I were amazed at the beauty and history of the downtown area. Then to blend that with the ghost stories left us with chills. We will definitely be doing this tour again. If you are considering this tour, be prepared to cover alot of the old downtown streets(wear the right shoes). Absolutely worth your time!

Fun Experience

Our tour guide was knowledgeable and enthusiastic. We enjoyed the walk and the information we learned. One recommendation would be to provide your guides with microphones. When there are several groups at the same site, sometimes it is difficult to hear your guide above the others.

tour was the greatest!
Sun, Jul 29, 07   9:30 PM judysas Female 50-59 Domestic Tourist(s) Family With Children
During our first visit to the area, we decided to take the Ghost tour on a sunday evening. A full moon lit our way through the city and our tour guide , Ben, was superb! We came back to Charleston the next day to visit several of the places on the tour and to enjoy lunch at Magnolia's. We fully intend to visit your city again, largely due to the enjoyable tour we had on a warm Charleston Sunday evening with a talented guide and entertainer!!! Keep up the terrific work!

Loved the book. The guide was nice but not a GREAT story teller so that was a little disappointing.

This is an enjoyable tour that allows you to see Charleston in a different light: an evening view with a touch of mystery and romance! Thanks, Julian, for an enchanting evening . . .

Loved the enthusiasm of our tour guide. The ghost stories & the history are very interesting. We will be coming back to Charleston to take other tours in the future.

Highly Recommend
Fri, Jul 27, 07   9:30 PM Sunbird21 Female 50-59 Domestic Tourist(s) Family Without Children
This was my very first ghost tour, but my daughter has been on quite a few in different places. We both felt that this was a very interesting and exciting ghost walk to go on in Charleston. Our tour guide, Ben, was quite good at story telling and provided lots of details and enthusiasm. He held everyone's attention throughout the entire walk. I would highly recommend this ghost walk to visitors in Charleston...and I would definitely go on another one in the future. The price was very competitive, also.

Over acted
Thu, Jul 26, 07   9:30 PM markreyland Male 40-49 Domestic Tourist(s) Family Without Children
I fully understand that the focus of such a tour is entertainment. However, try as hard as he did...Ben, simply over acted the part. It was really more a gore tour...than a ghost tour. More of the city ghost history and less of the ghoulish stories of fingers falling off would have made it a better experience. I think people wanted to believe they could see a ghost on the walk itself....not just stories of death in over acted detail. The other issue was with the facts, as presented, many of the facts were simply lies. The seats in the theater are not from the early 1800's. These stories were obviously designed to enhance the experience, but in fact they insult the listener by asking him/her to believe something that's obviously not true. Overall I Ben did a really enthusiastic job....and he clearly loves what he does....but his tour should be a bit more about ghost sightings...and a bit less about ghost stories. I can't say I would go again....we've been to many around the country and yours isn't in the top 10, but with Charleston to work with, and some focus, it could be.

very disappointed, waste of time and money
Sun, Jul 22, 07   9:30 PM cdistefano Female 30-39 Domestic Tourist(s) Group of Friends
Our "guide" was a terrible story teller and told brief ramblings of his interpretation of the history of Charlotte. Never any mention of ghosts or "spooky stuff" we had hoped to hear. We basically walked around downtown Charlotte, stopping every once in a while on a stoop and listened to his bad stories. I would hardly call it a tour. At one point we found ourselves in a bank parking lot listening to his bad jokes. We were then guided to their "theatre" for what we thought was the big finale but instead we watched him try to light a candle for ten minutes until another group arrived. Then we were just sent on our way. I sort of feel scammed. Huge disappointment.

BORING!
Sun, Jul 22, 07   9:30 PM shelldog Male 30-39 Local Group of Friends
Words can not say what a waste of time this was! Please Please Please take my advice and try a different tour! I truely believe in ghost and I had a very hard time believing anything that was told to us. The only interesting story that we heard was about a place we didnt visit! A total waste of time! The guide even yawned while he told the stories! I wish I could get my money back!
