Galveston Haunted Pub Crawl Walking Tour

Whitley_V, Mar 2026

If you’re looking for a...

If you’re looking for a fun, unique way to experience Galveston at night, the Haunted Pub Tour is an absolute must. This tour perfectly blends local history, spooky storytelling, and laid-back bar hopping. Our guide was fantastic—super knowledgeable, engaging, and just the right amount of theatrical to keep things entertaining without feeling over the top. Each stop had its own eerie backstory, and it was fascinating to learn about the island’s haunted past while actually standing in some of the locations where these stories originated. The pace was great, giving us enough time to enjoy drinks, explore each spot, and soak in the atmosphere without feeling rushed. The pubs themselves were full of character, and it made the experience feel even more authentic. Whether you’re into ghost stories or just want a different kind of night out, this tour is a perfect mix of fun and chills. I’d definitely do it again next time I’m in Galveston!

We had an amazing time on the Galveston Haunted Harbor Tour! It was the perfect mix of spooky and fun, with just the right amount of history woven in. The guide was fantastic—super engaging, knowledgeable, and had a great way of telling the stories that kept everyone entertained the entire time. Hearing the haunted history of Galveston while actually being out on the harbor made it feel even more eerie and memorable. The views at night were beautiful, and the whole experience felt unique compared to typical ghost tours. It was well organized, easy to enjoy, and something I’d definitely do again. Highly recommend if you’re looking for a fun and slightly spooky activity in Galveston! 👻

Red Light History at its best!

We had a phenomenal time on the Red Light District tour tonight. Our guide, Rob, was incredibly knowledgeable about the history and events of the area and shared it all in such an engaging way. We’ve done many tours over the years, and Rob is truly one of the best guides we’ve ever had—well-spoken, friendly, and full of fascinating insight. He made the entire experience enjoyable and memorable, and we highly recommend him.

Always a fun and new experience! I’m sure I’ll be back for more!

This was my 3rd time to do this tour led by Annette. As usual, Annette was welcoming, easy to engage, and focused on everyone’s enjoyment and wellbeing. I love hearing the stories, and getting to capture pictures of orbs and other phenomena. We enjoyed ourselves!

The Historic Galveston Ghost Tour

Get your scare on

We had a wonderful experience. We had our granddaughters with us and they got enough “scare” without experiencing nightmares. My grandparents lived in Galveston and hearing the story of Robert Durst and seeing his house was the best part of the trip Dave knew so much about the 1900 storm that the horror of it became a reality The question/answer was just enough. Dave continues to educate himself in the mystery of the island and I can imagine that if you repeat the experience (and we probably will) you will learn new facts.

Great tour

I lived in Houston my whole life and didn’t know anything about Galveston. We came to Galveston for the weekend to celebrate my wife’s birthday and she’s a history buff and she truly loved it! I was very impressed how knowledgeable our tour guide was! It was a very interesting experience and I can honestly say it was worth it!

Spooky Strand Ghost Tour

Sue_F, Apr 2025

Top notch presentation - learned so much Galveston history

Thomas was an excellent guide. His presentation was engaging with so much detail about Galveston’s history and development as a city in the 1800’s. Their port was a critical part of their businesses and for a while Galveston was the capital of Texas. But when the 1900 storm hit Galveston, it devastated the city and changed its future. The worst natural disaster ever in the U.S. Thomas told us about the long recovery of Galveston and that ghosts are part of their city. One fascinating fact after another throughout the tour! I highly recommend this tour.
