| Our tour guide did a great job, she was very nice and knew her stories well. Some of the tour was spent on the architecture and history of the city when I thought it was supposed to be a ghost tour, with ghost stories. We enjoyed it nevertheless. | ||||||

| This is a family friendly activity that is not scary but provides a lot of interesting history about people of Charleston's past. I would recommend the tour guide use a stronger flashlight, however. | ||||||

Great tour

| Very informative. Lots of interesting history. Guide was very knowledgeable and a good story teller. The tour took us through the Unitarian Church graveyard at night. There were a few children on the tour, and they seemed pretty scared. Wouldn't recommend it for anyone under 12 or 13. Not much walking, so it's not physically demanding at all. Some of the streets are cobblestone and could be a problem for an elderly person or someone with poor night vision. | ||||||

Informational tour mixed with ghost stories

| It was a fun activity that provided access to a cemetery that would otherwise be unavailable to the public. I actually did two tours and found the same stories to be told differently with different facts and details. (I wish that there was one official story told by all.) The guide would've made a great storyteller for children. Wasn't as effective with the adults. However there was adult humor in his stories and the walking part was fun. | ||||||

Ghost tour a waste

| The tour was long, boring and the guide was a jerk. He just thought he was so funny and actually waited at times for us to laugh at his witty comments and actually got annoyed if he didn't get the response he wanted! Save your money and enjoy a tour where you can actually learn something about Charleston. | ||||||

Very Disappointed

| I am in a family of 4, with 2 kids ages 12 and 9. We went on the 7:30 tour last Saturday, April 4th. No one in my family enjoyed the tour. It was probably the biggest waste of money that we spent in Charleston. It wasn't scary and really not even very entertaining. The tour guide was annoying. Not nearly enough stories were told. After standing outside the Smokehouse brewery for what seemed like a 30-minute boring narrative, I was ready to leave the tour; unfortunately, it had just begun. It didn't improve from there.

| It's a great family activity, but if you're REALLY into ghosts and want something a little more in depth and hands on, this probably isn't the tour for you. It's great for an overall history and walkabout and especially for families with kids. | ||||||

Boring ghost tour

| Tue, Mar 31 9:30 PM | kchandler13 | Female | 30-39 | Domestic Tourist(s) | Family With Children | |
| The tour guide we had was very boring and not very enthusiastic. From beginning to end very boring!!! I would not recommend this tour to my family or friends. | ||||||

Skip This Tour
|
|||||
| Tue, Mar 31 7:30 PM | stupidsite | Female | 40-49 | Domestic Tourist(s) | Family Without Children | |
| Had hoped for an engaging, scary ghost tour of Charleston. What we got was a perfunctory, canned speech at several stops over a 90 minute period. Guide was just "going thru the motions." All in our tour group (10 folks) were clearly bored and guide did not make any effort to engage the group or tailor his stories to the group. He had a prepared speech and delivered it. He was friendly, but couldn't mesh with his audience. (He seemed like he might be better on an architectural tour.) Unitarian graveyard was neat...but we were only there about 7 minutes...then he moved us on to the next stop on the sidewalk. Nothing scary about this tour and certainly not worth $40. | ||||||

Had a great time..Ian was a great storyteller

| My wife and I are ghost enthusiasts and this was our first ghost tour. We had a wonderful time listening to the stories that Ian told. He had a flair for the dramatic. He knew how to use his skills to make the story come to life. We were going to go on another tour the next night but it rained. We would definitely reccomend this to friends and look forward to doing this again when we return to Charleston | ||||||

| We had a great time listening to spine-tingling stories of Charleston's ghosts. The guide was very knowledgable and very scary serious. | ||||||

Great Tour

| Our family enjoyed this tour. It was recommened to me by a friend and I would definitely recommend it to others. I would like to go back and do additional tours (The Ghosts of Charleston 2, and the Pirates Tour) the next time we visit Charleston. My son (age 11) purchased the book "The Ghosts of Charleston" and read it on the way home. He loved the tour! | ||||||

Great Atmosphere. Lots of History

| Even the most skeptical will enjoy the history on this tour, and even the bravest may be a bit creeped out by the atmospheric, spanish moss-draped cemetary. | ||||||

Top Notch Presentation
|
|||||
| Sat, Mar 21 7:30 PM | mijsoup | Female | 30-39 | Local | Couple on a Date | |
| This tour has many positives - the story, the drama, the humor, and the city itself are all top notch. The meeting location, section of town toured, group size, and time are all perfect. However, what made this tour was the OUTSTANDING presentation by Ian. A truly professional appearance, approach, and presentation. Ian was dramatic at the right times, and funny when he needed to be. Friendly with all guests and contains a mountain of knowledge for the tour and the local area. The only negative - The end - The two hours we had was enough to satisfy the tour, but I could listen to Ian talk for an additional two hours - he is that good. | ||||||
