Not worth the money or time

The ghost tour was not what I expected. Very short on ghost talk and too much on just walking. Stories where not that interesting or even ghostly. I would suggest that you save your money and go have a couple of drinks at a Shockhoe bar...

Fun, believable and interesting

Our guide Marcia was lively, energetic, and full of stories that were believable. My whole family enjoyed the outing tremendously. By the time we hit our last stop, many of us were being to be wary of our surroundings. It was a great time!

We had a great time on our walking tour. We got a lot of local history, in addition to the ghost stories. Our tour guide Marcia was knowledgeable and enthusiastic.

Directions

You gave lousy directions to a place that wasn't marked good enough to see at night. I'm not from the Richmond area so I don't know right off the bat where everything is. Drove in circles to find the meeting point and ended up missing the start time. Would of liked to of gone but wasn't able to find it. Fix your directions page, that 4 blocks on the right crap isn't good enough.

I've been wanting to do more in Richmond since I moved here and this just seemed like something different and fun that I could do. The tour was great and I loved that not only did I hear about some cool ghost stories, but I also got to learn about some of the city's history, which has always fascinated me.

Good, but not great
Fri, Oct 24, 08   9:00 PM pattybeatman Female 50-59 Local Group of Friends
I really enjoyed our Tour of Haunted Richmond, but it could have been much better. Our tour guide was interesting, but spoke softly and was hard to hear over the hustle and bustle of a busy city. He also spoke with his eyes closed and never looked at the people in the group. His knowledge of the history was good, and he made me want to investigate several sites more. I didn't mind the walk and several of the haunted sites were unfamiliar to me. He just could have been more effusive in his presentation, which is sad because the material was very interesting.

Entertaining; could have had a little more "haunt"
Fri, Oct 24, 08   9:00 PM susanlo Female 30-39 Combination Group of Friends
This was a fun tour that I would recommend but it could have had more of a "haunted" feel. The best part of the tour was when the leader went into character and told the story of the tunnel collapse. More stories should have been told like this to give more of a haunted tour effect. At times it was more of just a history of Poe tour. I like lots of spooky ghost stories on haunted tours. I thought that part could have been done up more but I definitely enjoyed myself.

This tour was not what I thought at all it was more of a history lesson about Richmond and was very boring. Not scary at all!!!
