Booze & Boos in Old Town Alexandria! - My wife and I went on a tour with tour guide Magic. He was so much fun and charismatic. He had a lot of love and appreciation for the city of Alexandria's history and culture. The ghost stories and history rich experience was a lot of fun, we had a blast! As went from bar to bar, we would stop and learn about the different ghosts and stories about the the area. On top of that, our group was so friendly. We ended up making new friends during the experience!
10/10 would recommend. If you can, ask for Magic!

Best ghost tour ever! - I went on the Booze and Boos tour with my work mates last night. I’ve been going to DC for work for many years and I had never tried the Ghost Tour. It was hands down the most fun I’ve ever had on a business trip! Our guide Magic was amazing, knowledgeable and fun! If you want a team building event combined with fun, do this tour! It was awesome! Thank you Magic!

A little Magic in Old Town Alexandria - We took a drizzly Friday night tour through the charming streets of Old Town Alexandria with Magic and he was a fantastic guide: warm, engaging, and fun! He wove local history into tales of the spooky effortlessly. We were a group of childhood girlfriends taking a break from our lives and this tour was a fun start to our long weekend. The local watering holes were cozy and the ghost stories creepy, but the real magic came from our host and his welcoming way with people ✨

Ghost Tour - We set up a ghost tour in Alexandria, VA and our tour guide was Magic. He was super upbeat, super intriguing & all around a fantastic time! He was incredibly knowledgeable and had the best stories. We even got to share a little bit about ourselves with each other when we stopped by the bars. I will be back again to do another ghost tour with some family.

A Great Evening with Magic in Alexandria - We went on the Booze and Boos Tour in Alexandria with Magic on December 14 with two of our twenty-something sons. We had so much fun learning about the town and history, hearing some scary stories and sharing drinks and conversation but our guide made the tour for us! He was knowledgeable and very easy to talk with as he answered questions about the city and history as well as any personal questions we had. This tour is highly recommended and we really enjoyed our time in Alexandria!
