Spooky Fun in Austin - Our haunted tour of Austin was fantastic. Our guide, Will, was so knowledgeable, and was a great storyteller. Learning about the history and the ghosts of downtown Austin was fascinating and creepy.I especially enjoyed that he included extra stories and tidbits, and used accounts from real witnesses that he’s met. Definitely take this tour. You won’t regret it!

Fun insight on Austin haunted history. - Fun experience with a guide on our short stroll in down town. It will take you on sight of several incidents that made this city famous and through the Driskill Hotel. The only reason I gave it 4 stars and not 5 is because Austin is filled with homeless people and I had to keep my guard up with my family. Keep that in mind.

Nice tour - Like that they included history. Length was perfect (had my 4 yo grandson w/me). Amount of walking was good. Not too much but not too little. I’ve had both knees replaced and I had no problems
