| The tour would be better if actual Ghost hunting was included. Use of EMF dectors and access to a medium would be much more exciting than telling stories.... | ||||||

| My husband and I took the tour and both enjoyed the experience. A lot of history and information packed into the tour. I, personally, enjoyed the Poe Museum Enchanted Garden...spectacular in the moonlight. I definately recommend this for anyone from the area who hasn't done it and anyone from out of town that likes history. BUT the tour took us 2+ hours, not the 75 minutes mentioned on the website. Our guide was a bit strange but did a decent job. Also, the hike from the Canal/Dock Street straight up to the Capital should be noted as a bit more than "mildly strenuous uphill walk" - just be prepared and bring a bottle of water. All in all, we had a good time and would recommend this activity. | ||||||

| The Haunts of Richmond Tour was really fun. Afterwards, we took the Widow's House Tour. That was fun also. Only one little problem. It was hard to navigate the rooms. You didn't know how far to go until it was too late. | ||||||

Good creepy history

| I have lived in Richmond for most of my life and have wanted to take the walking ghost tour since Haunts of Richmond started theirs. I was not disappointed! It is a great mix of the history of the city with some creepy stories thrown in. The guide was very personable and humorous and willing to answer questions, which is always a good quality in a tour guide. | ||||||

| Lots of historical facts to be learned along with a touch of the ghostly side. Oh and lots and lots of exercise. I learned a lot of the city's history, saw sights I hadn't seen before and heard the ghostly tales that surround some of the buildings in Richmond. It's a fun tour but not a good trip for small children or pets because there is a lot of walking up and down hills. The tour guide was interesting and took care to make sure the group was together with no stragglers getting lost or grabbed by a ghost. | ||||||

| It was really good. I think a lot of it was stuff we already knew from the Ghosts of Virginia books, but we definitely learned a few things we didn't know about. Also, walking around Capitol Hill was amazing, because it's so beautiful and creepy there at night, and I had no idea it was open so late. The kicker was being able to go inside the gate of Monumental Church; that's supposed to be one of the most haunted places in town. | ||||||

| The tour was "okay." It could have been better. The tour guide/story teller, although very historically informative, did not present the stories with a scary undertone. I guess it was because of the atmosphere (traffic and drunkards). It would have been really nice if she told the same stories inside of the buildings of which they are associated with, as well as change the tone in her voice to "build" the story. That would have been a bit more interesting and spooky. I would only recommend this tour for its historical rhetoric. | ||||||

| We both enjoyed the "widow's mansion". It kind of creeped both of us out at times. Liked how the rooms were based on "real ghost stories". Would like to do it again when you change it up. The walk was neat as well, a fun way to learn some history. | ||||||

| This is one of the best tours we have taken. Our guide was very personable and able to tailor her presentation to our interests. She encouraged questions and had a fine sense of humor. We could tell that she loved the history of the area. She was wonderful answering our questions about both the history and about the other places of interest that we should see while in the area. I recomend this if you are interested in history, ghostly stories, and enjoy a good walk. We had a wonderful evening! | ||||||

| So many ghost stories! Loved the reactions from the group! Beautiful buildings. Enjoyed all the walking and learning more about Shockoe's history. The haunted house was a great way to end the tour. | ||||||

| Our guide was extremely knowledgeable about both the ghost history and the "real" history of the Shockoe Bottom region and Richmond in general. We especially enjoyed the legend of the Church Hill Tunnel, but I won't give away the story here. The only complaint we had was that it was a bitterly cold and windy night -- unexpected for the first weekend in April. Otherwise, it was a lot of fun and educational too! | ||||||
