| LONG! They advertise that it will be a 90 minute tour. Our tour lasted over 2 hours. Granite, we had 40 people in our tour so Im sure the Tour Guide wanted to make sure that everyone was getting the stories. We had dinner reservations at 9pm and we had to leave the group early because of that.
The stories and sites are great! You will not leave unhappy. If you are true believer in ghosts or not, this tour was entertaining and rewarding. Just be aware of a long tour. |

| This tour was very interesting, it should move along a little quicker, and maybe reduce it down to 1 hour. The ghost tour in Alexandria, VA is about that long and seemed to keep everyone attentive. |

| I've been on a Ghost walk before and had an idea what to expect, but not being from Annapolis or knowing that much about Annapolis made the walk that much more fun and exciting. Our host did a fantastic job. Her descriptions and enthusiasm made the walk that much better. Thanks for such a great job. keep up the good work. |

| We were late for our scheduled tour. The operator was very accomodating about letting us attend a later tour even though the paperwork says there are no refunds and no changes. The tour itself was an excellent historical walk of downtown Annapolis. The guide was very animated and seemed very knowledgeable. Highly recommended. |

Low on historical facts, high on repetition

| This tour could have been amazing If:
--the guide had a better script. Annapolis has numerous stories into which a few lines of ghostly myth and humor would have been enough.
--the guide was an actor. Surely there are talented actors who would find opportunity in this kind of work.
As it was our out-of-town guests and we, who have lived in Annapollis for 12 years, were bored and embarrassed that we were still there after the first 10 minutes.
Please let us know when you make changes. We would like a night time downtown Annapolis tour for our out-of-town guests. |

| The Ghost Tour of Annapolis, MD was attended by me and my four daughters. Their ages are 21, 18, 16 & 16. I would not recommend the tour for children that are less than 13 years of age.
My family is very intrigued with ghost stories and found the Annapolis tour a very unique method of learning the local legends and the current day bizarre happenings. We heard the historical stories in addition to the stories of people that are currently having issues with ghost from hundreds of years ago. The guide that was giving the tour was passionate when telling the legendary happenings, but also the knowledge about the historical aspects of the city was quite impressive.
During the tour, two of my daughters took pictures by digital cameras. After review of the pictures while still at the location, the picture showed children and adult faces staring through the windows. Staring back up at the windows, nothing was there! One house showed that all the lights were on when in fact it stood pitch black. I don’t know if it was ghost, but something definitely existed within the visited homes. Spoookkkyyy ….
I have recommended the tour to others and my entire family found it a very unique way to celebrate my daughters 18th birthday!
The only down fall was the parking! Not only was it difficult to find some (even in the parking garages), once it was found you had to figure out where you were it was in conjunction to the “meet up” location. Make sure that you leave yourself plenty of time before the arrival (no less than an hour!) Make sure you remember IT IS A WALKING TOUR – NO HIGH HEELS!
