My wife, daughter (8) and myself all loved teh tour very much. The lanterns were great. Orderering on line was easy and hassle free and so was givng the paper tickets to the tour folks. We had a blast. Go early and enjoy Plymouth rock area and the y have great local ice cream shops all within a 3 minute walk. "A+ and a thumbs up" is what my 8 year old said.

Excellent Ghost Tour!
Fri, Aug 22  7:30 PM eacarrill Female 20-29 Domestic Tourist(s) Family Without Children
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.

A fun and Informative tour!
Wed, Aug 20  7:30 PM littlesmyth Female 60-69 Local Family With Children
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.

Educational--not too scary, cemetary great
Thu, Aug 7  9:00 PM karenbplatt Female 30-39 Domestic Tourist(s) Family With Children
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.

An interesting approach to learning local history!
Sat, Jul 12  9:00 PM folger Female 30-39 Local Family With Children
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!!!

Disappointing tour
Wed, Jul 9  9:00 PM kellyschmidt Female 40-49 Domestic Tourist(s) Group of Friends
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, David Toronto, Canada

Lots of History mixed with the spookies!
Tue, Jun 24  7:30 PM genoa816 Female 40-49 Domestic Tourist(s) Family With Children
Our tour guide was wonderful. She happened to be the one who started the tours with a grant. She is an ex 4th grade teacher and was great with our kids. Our family enjoys hearing stories about historical places and the "people" who are still with us. The tour is an easy walk. The only challenge was getting up the steps at Burial Hill. But totally worth the effort! This tour is THE one to go on. Accept no imitations. This is the tour which gives you accurate historical information based upon real events that took place. If you only have one chance to take a tour, take this one.

Just OK

Tour guide was very nice but could have been more informative. $28.00 for 1 adult and 1 child was a little too much for what we got out of it.

Delightful experience
Tue, May 13  9:00 PM tweezette Female 50-59 Domestic Tourist(s) Family With Children
My husband, daughter and myself went on the Ghost tour while in Plymouth, MA on vacation. We enjoyed the tour greatly. It was the first time for that kind of trip for my husband and daughter and they were very suprised at how much fun they had. I had taken one in Ghettysburg and found this experience to be just as informative and enjoyable. The guide was a wealth of information and very pleasant. H e made the evening a huge success.
