| If you want a haunted tour that includes a couple of beers, this is perfect. Not too detailed, but fun. I recommend. |

| I am fairly well-versed in the paranormal and expected our guide to be so also. She was extremely nice, but not enthusiastic about the tour. To her detriment, it was difficult to hear in many places so it most likely was difficult for her to communicate as well.
Perhaps I expected too much, but it was not as exciting as I had hoped; although it was a beautiful fall night to walk about. |

| After a deliciously satisfying dinner with friends at Galaway, what a wonderful way to spend an entertaining evening to celebrate our 14th Wedding anniversary. Nothing like checking out the skeletons in the Annapolis closets or should I say pubs. Our tour guide artfully pulled us in. |

Great Idea - Wrong Story Teller

| The concept of taking a walking tour of Annapolis while hearing stories about actual ghosts associated with local establishments is a GREAT one. Unfortunately, after paying and already into the tour, we learned the regular “story teller” called in sick and our guide would be the owner. We suspected we were in trouble when the first thing the owner told us is that he was no story teller. He could not have been more right. What could have (and should have) been a great night of ghost stories under a full moon turned out to be nothing more than a long and unsatisfactory experience. Don’t get us wrong, the owner is a nice guy; but we paid forty plus dollars for the ghost stories and felt totally cheated. The event was such a let down that we ended up leaving before the tour ended. |

| The crawl was fairly entertaining, but not as good as other ghost tours I have been on. Actual stories were not fleshed out at all. Just vague stories about objects being moved or missing. The stories about the people who were haunting the places were very sparse as well. Also, when they tell you not to be late, they mean it. Don't bother to call them like it says when you book the tour because they aren't going to wait for you. You may as well just show up and take your chances since you already paid for it. And go to the bath room before you leave the first pub, it may be a while before you see another one. We spent quite a while walking around down town between the first and second pubs. Overall it was fun and I didn't feel like I was totally ripped off, but I have been to better. |

| We had a good time on this tour. It certainly helps if you are with a fun group. Some of the stories are corny, but if you drink enough & your group is fun, you won't even notice! |

| For starters, the right hand didn't know what the left was doing. I will be brief and say that the tour people are on a different schedule than was provided at the time the tickets were purchased. There were four couples signed up for the tour, and two of them quit after the first pub. Part of the reason was because of the initial confusion, and part of the reason was because it was hard to hear the guide. I guess they thought it was going to be a private tour with no other customers in the pubs, or maybe they really wanted to take it seriously. If you plan to take it seriously, take a regular ghost tour and skip the "crawl". If you're doing it for something different and want to have a good time, then give it a try. It was a good history lesson, but not very scary. It was cool to hang out with the other couple that decided to stick around. All in all, like everything else in life, it is what you make of it. |

| After waiting outside the check in / meeting place or so we thought we decided to go inside and check in. The woman at the counter took our names gave us our bracelets and sent us to the actual meeting place. we met some other tour guest that were waiting for our guide. 15 minutes past the time the tour was suppose to begin we went back to the check in area and asked where our guide was? She showed up and led us to the first meeting place again. this was now a half hour after the tour start time. The tour guide proceded to tell us of one of the haunts that nobody could here her it was so loud. My date and another couple just walked away in disgust. So basicly I paid 44 dollars for 2 glow in the dark bracelets. And I now you won't print this!! Absolutly horrible. What would make me happy is a total refund or tickets for somrthing else that is more organized. |

| This was a blast!
Our guide was fabulous; the pubs were historic and fun, and we learned A LOT about the history of the area.
Our guide made this a very special and fun night, as we were celebrating
my daughter's 21st birthday.
I would highly recomend this tour!
I can't wait to do it again!!! |

| Very well presentation. Some good special drinks on the crawl. Interesting information, much of it followed information I researched prior to going out.
Only bad thing was a few loud, drunk people on the tour that wouldn't shut up while the tour guide was talking. |
