I have been on many other ghost tours before, but they all pale in comparison to the Ghost and Lantern Tour in Plymouth. I believed going in to the tour that it would be like the rest where you walk around and here stories. That is true but the tour is so much more. In this 90 minute tour- which is a good length. My Dad and I took the 7:30 tour because we had traveled 9 hours that day to get to Plymouth and thought we would be very tired. It was very nice, only my family and one other family with children. I was very impressed with the fact that we hiked up to the cemetery and stayed there for what seemed like a half hour in the dark with lanterns hearing ghost stories. It was great. Our tour guide Vicki was excellent and I loved her own personal stories and the pictures she had to share. I wish I could attend this tour again. A must for those staying (or passing by) Plymouth. |

My husband and I have our grandchildren for a week each summer and always look for something different to do with them. We took them to Plymouth and saw a poster for the Lantern Ghost Tour and decided to try it.
We were throughly entertained, as were the children. Our guide was a delight and did her job nicely.
I would not recommend the tour for children under the age of eight. Our eleven year old was fine but the eight year old slept with us that night! He did enjoy it though and said he would do it again.
Thank you for affording us the opportunity to learn more of Plymouth's ghostly stories and legends. We highly recommend it. |

I enjoyed the learning that happened on this tour. The stories of the ghost sightings and other strange things were interesting (particularly one about a more recent murder). It was a good combination of history and learning about the area with some stories about strange happenings. The tour through the cemetary at night was really great. The tour was long and I appreciated that because it was well worth the money. It lasted almost 2 hours. Doing the tour in the dark made it better. They let everyone carry a real lantern with a candle which is also fun and makes it feel more authentic.
I would recommend it. Nice for families but may be a bit long for any child under 10. |

Our tour guide had a wonderful personality. You could tell she has a sincere interest in Plymouth's ghost history.She was extremely entertaining , funny and most of all she was very knowledgeable. She not only told the ghost stories, she acted them out with such passion that the group couldn't help but want to gather closer. I brought two 11 year olds and one 13 year old and they said it was exciting and scary all in one. They each said they experienced something strange.They couldn't wait to get back home to tell their friends what they had experienced. But I won't tell... you'll have to try this tour youself to see if anything spooky will happen to you. I'll tell ya, my hair definitely stood on end!! As a local myself I was surprised to have learned so much history as well. I highly reccomend this tour if ghost stories don't scare you. Wear good shoes and be able to climb some steep steps. I wouldn't reccomend the late tour for kids under 8 who might still be afraid of the dark. Nothing at all gory but enough to be scary in some of the real dark spaces. Try the earlier tour when not so dark. I can't wait until All Hallowes Eve!!! Thanks again ghost tours. We will definitely be back!!! |

We thought the tour would be 90 minutes. We left after the two hour mark. The cemetary was interesting but we found the guide to be boring. She did go into character as a witch (I think) a few times but her voice just wasn't believable and her personality was strange. .
We felt bad leaving the tour with her to carry the lanterns but we asked for it to be the end of the tour and she kept going on with boring stories. There were 7 in our group, 4 in their early 30s, 2 in mid 40s and 1 mid 60s.
I would not recommend the tour. |

The tour was terrific...especially walking through Burial Hill (cemetary) in the dark with lanterns. The tour guide (Barry) was fabulous, very knowledgable, and had a good sense of humour. As a result of this tour, we learned a lot about the pilgrim voyage, stories behind certain areas of Plymouth, and places that are haunted.
I highly recommend this tour over any other in Plymouth. There may be others out there offering similar tours - but this group was very well run, especially if you are staying at the John Carver Inn.
Sincerely,

MY GROWN CHILDREN AND I THROUGHLY ENJOYED THE LANTERN TOUR. OUR GUIDE WAS EVERY ENTHUSIASTIC, WHICH MADE THE TOUR A LOT OF FUN FROM START TO FINISH. WE ARE FROM PLYMOUTH AND HAVE ALWAYS BEEN TOLD WE ARE DESCENDANTS 0F JOHN ALDEN. WE LEARN SO MUCH ABOUT OUR TOWN. I CANT SAY ENOUGH GOOD THINGS ABOUT THE LANTERN TOUR. I WOULD HIGHLY RECOMMEND IT EVERYONE.
