Fantastic tour! - This tour was awesome! Faith was so knowledgeable and told us about the history of the city that wasn’t part of the tour. We loved seeing all of the different buildings around town, and hearing their haunts. I would highly recommend this tour.

Cool tour even for locals - Our guide Josh was awesome. His own stories and knowledge of San Antonio added to the experience. The historical photos were a nice touch. The locals in our group also enjoyed the tour. We recommend the brisket before the tour.

Visiting the Ghosts of San Antonio - Our tour guide was Blake and he was amazing! We were the only ones on the tour, so Blake personalized the tour to match the information and details we were interested in. We had SO much fun! It was a very interesting tour and we learned a lot about the history of San Antonio, the buildings, and the ghosts! We will definitely tell any friends/family planning a visit to take this tour! Thank you so much to Blake for making this an experience we will talk about for years to come!!!

Entertaining Tour - We took the tour last night; it was cold and rainy, and we ended up being the only folks on it. So it was the three of us and our guide, Blake. He was nice and I do believe he enjoys his job. He walked us to various areas and told history along with ghost and/or murder stories. I’m a fact checker so looked up a few of the names he brought up; some stories sounded a bit more elaborated and the times were a little off, but for entertainment value, that’s understandable. He was new to the area still so he’s still getting the hang of it all. We’re staying at the Emily Morgan so he was nice enough to give us some extra stories about that; my 12 year old is now convinced she hears things at night at the hotel.. so the money was worth it LOL

Good tour… problems with logistics - The tour guide was interesting. The promotion gave us a starting and ending place and suggested it would be an hour and a half. Two hours later, we were quite a ways from our end point. I left with five teens in tow. The tour guide suggested a pick up point, but our driver could not get to it because of streets that were closed, and massive traffic jams were everywhere. We were able to connect with our ride close too interstate 35 at 11:30..

Our guide was not well... - Our guide was not well prepared. He seemed to be winging it. He had a few verifiable stories of historic events, personal ghost stories and some antic-dotes which added a personal touch but could not be verified. The presentation seemed thrown together in many parts and areas of the tour didn’t feel like part of the plan. A working IPad with well-planned visuals would have been good. His focus was not on the group but himself. Making sure everyone could hear and being more professional and prepared with planned visuals would have earned a higher rating.

Not a real ghost tour - It was more of a guided history tour. Could barely hear the guide, he needs a microphone. Was not at all what is described in the description
