Nice walking tours of downtown areas. Nighttime viewing. Interesting tales of ghostly haunts.

I have been on my share of ghost tours in my travels, and I have to say this was definitely one of the better ones. Nope, no supernatural occurrences. No chills running up and down my spine. But the guide makes the ghost tour. And I thought that our guide Ian, while eccentric, was a hoot and a half. As... More

My wife and I went on our honeymoon in Charleston and decided to "kill" some time by going on the Ghost tour and after many flyers and research we decided with this one. The tour guide, Ian, was VERY well educated and witty along with a spooky sense of timing that made this the best ghost tour we've been on.... More

I took 3 of my kids on the tour, one of which is 8 years old. She absolutely loved the historical perspective of the tour! The guy who took us was a fast talker as well but I was impressed with his knowledge and passion as a tour guide. If you are looking to be SHOCKED this tour isnt for... More

This is the first time I've ever posted a review on tripadvisor, but after reading some other comments for this tour I felt I had to throw in my own two cents. I recently took this tour with my youngest son. We were in Charleston for a few days and I thought this looked like fun. Our tour started off... More

We chose this tour because the previous negative reviews all complained that there was too much history and not enough ghosts and that sounded perfect for us. They mostly were very complimentary about the guide. Unfortunately, we found almost the opposite. Our guide (Ian) was very... dramatic, at the detriment of the tour. He talked so quickly, and in this... More

I've done other tours in town over the years, but this one is above and beyond. Our guide was a gifted storyteller and extremely knowledgeable about the city. The Unitarian churchyard at night was amazing. I took the 9:30 tour that met at Waterfront park. In my experience, the later tours have fewer people which I like. I passed another... More

Took The Ghosts of Charleston tour for my 23rd birthday with family members. Now I've been on close to 100 different ghost tours all around the nation. I'd have to rank this one close to last. The tour was too much about history of the buldings. Most of them having nothing to do with ghosts. Save your money. Take a... More

Let's get this out of the way first: it wasn't scary, it was edifying. I think many people go on these tours anticipating some sort of paranormal encounter -- a brush with the other side, even if completely fabricated -- and they're disappointed when such never materializes. We all found the tour to be very interesting, and it covered an... More
