What a fun and informative evening! Jake was a great guide that held our attention the entire tour despite it being quite cold. Organized, on time, and full of information! Highly recommend for anyone not only interested in listening to ghost stories but also anyone interested in learning more about Portland’s history and lore.

Thank you, Grace! We're so glad you enjoyed the tour and that Jake made it both fun and informative. We appreciate the recommendation and hope to see you again soon!
Informative experience with some weird stuff happening over the years. Some Portland history included. Not intended to be scary.
Response from Host, Oct 2026
Thank you for joining us! We’re glad you enjoyed the mix of Portland history and intriguing tales. We appreciate you sharing your experience and hope to see you again!
Dress warmly. Wear comfortable shoes. Not good for the hard of hearing. More talk tales than a ghost walk.

Compared to other ghost tours we have been on in other cities, this one was more basic storytelling and not much to show/see. The walk is easy. The tour guide did ok. The content was mostly boring, save for the first couple of boat stories. Would be improved with actually getting to walk the space you are telling the story about.

It was boring so we left and had more fun enjoying the soccer match. The person leading it was blah and not worth sticking around.

It was more about history and the buildings that have sighted ghosts. Jordan did a good job telling the stories though. Just wasn’t what I expected, but it wasn’t bad.

Thank you for sharing your experience! We’re so glad you had a great time on the tour even with the rain trying to steal the spotlight.
We did the ghost walk with Jeff as our tour guide. As it was not during peak travel season, we were one on one with him. He was very personable, knew a lot of information about Portland, and told exceptionally spooky stories! The night was completed with fog as well. It was perfect!
Response from Host, Apr 2026
Thank you for such a wonderful review! Getting a one-on-one tour is definitely a special experience, and it sounds like Jeff made the most of it. He’ll love hearing that you enjoyed his storytelling and deep knowledge of Portland’s history.
Our tour guide, Jeff, was phenomenal! It was a perfect way to spend our Halloween night and it was great way to become oriented with some of the cities landmarks while learning about some spooky happenings!
Response from Host, Nov 2025
Thanks for spending your Halloween night with us! 🎃 Jeff will be thrilled to hear this. Glad the tour helped you get to know the Old Port and its spooky secrets. Hope to haunt the streets with you again soon!
