Veteran of multiple Ghost tours (Gettysburg, Savannah, etc) and this was by far one of the finest we have been on. Guide was knowledgeable, witty, and entertaining. Highly recommend this tour above all others and the conclusion was completely spine tingling.

did not like the guide, was very dramatic and the first ghost story was very long. Need to get the point and move on to another location. This tour could have covered many more locations for your buck.

Informative but not scary

The guide was very knowledgeable but it seemed very fake and overly dramatic. We didn't really get to go inside anywhere except for the graveyard. The graveyard was fun but the guide was storytelling the whole time and it was hard to just sit back and take it all in. I was a bit disappointed in the tour.

A pleasant educational experience

our guide was very informative, as far as the "ghostly" part of it, it truly matters about the group. if you get around a group that is already gloom and doom, im sorry. but if the group is into it then you are in for a good time. seriously, very good value, the unitarian grave yard is amazing.

Phenomenal Time

I have done many tours in cities of every size across the globe and this one is my new favorite. As most tourists will tell you, the guide is what makes or breaks a tour; and our guide, Ian, was phenomenal. He superbly integrated his encyclopedic knowledge of Charleston into an exciting and perfectly paced walk. His enthusiasm in storytelling was only matched by his "punny" sense of humor. We didn't see any ghosts (nor did we expect to) but don't let that stop you from taking this quirky history lesson.

Good tour

This was a good tour. The guide was informative & entertaining. We learned not only about alleged ghosts but also got a good history of Charleston & saw many interesting sites. We really liked the night tour especially through the Unitarian cemetery. I would recommend the tour especially after dark.

Not as good as past tours

This is the fourth ghost tour we have taken in Charleston. While we really like this company the enjoyment of the Tour really comes down to the guide. Ian was not the best guide we have had. He went more into the history of Charleston and told fewer ghost stories than we have heard on past tours. He was also somewhat rude and disorganized.

charleston is a lovely town but at night you got to be afraid of all the ghosts that live there. don't believe in them? well... you just gotta take the tour and you will.

This was an enjoyable experience overall. Not as hands on creepy as i thought it may be. The tour guide was quirky and funny. I'd like to have gone in some of the haunted buildings.

Excellent!!

The tour guide was very familiar with the history of Charleston. He was an excelllent story teller and had a great sense of humor. There was never a dull moment. Living in the Charleston area for my entire life, I learned things I didn't know. You get to see and hear the best harleston has to offer. Highly recommended. I will be taking other tours from this vendor in the future.

Ian the ghost tour guide was amazing. I was skeptical at first because it was a ghost tour and I expected it to be silly. I ended up having a great time. Ian gave us plenty of historical context to go along with the ghost stories and it made me feel more "in the moment" than I otherwise would have, he is smart, knows what he is doing, and doesn't take himself to seriously. All in all a great experience I learned more about Charleston in the 90 minute tour than I would have ever expected.

My group very much enjoyed this tour. Our guide, Ian, had a great personality, which was well suited for conducting the tour. His in-depth knowledge of the history of Charleston made the tour even more enjoyable. I recommend this tour to anyone who has the chance to take it.

enjoyed the ghost tour

Our tour guide was very enthusiastic and because of his knowledge of the city and the ghost stories, he made the tour not only fun from the spooky side of things but also interesting from the historical side. I grew up in the Charleston area and still learned a little, while having fun. I would surely recommend this trip as a mandatory activity for a visitor from out of state to gain a little knowledge related to the spookier side of the city's already rich history.
