Mo was great. We enjoyed all the ghost stories in the Dueler’s Alley, outside of Saint Philip’s cemetery, and the Dungeon.

This tour is a lot of fun full on history and scary ghost stories. The tour guide Sabian was and excellent tour guide full of personality and interacted with the whole group throughout the trip. Be prepared for a decent walk and bring something to drink.

I wouldn’t call the a ghost tour. The dungeon was very neat, the tour guide was very knowledgeable and had some great stories, but in the end we were left still wanting a ghost tour. This was more of a history tour with a few stories. It wasn’t bad , it just wasn’t a ghost tour.
Response from Host, Nov 2025
Hello, we are sorry that the tour did not meet your expectations. When it comes to ghost tours, there are always differing expectations--some want more history while others want a lot less. Each guide find their own line between the two, so perhaps with a different guide it would have resulted differently. We have no problem offering a refund for the experience. Please feel free to reach out to me at andrew@bulldogtours.com to discuss further.

My daughter and I had a great experience on this tour. Our tour operator Jim did a great job telling tales and had a great knowledge of the Charleston area and all kinds of stories about different places. He encouraged questions and even spend time afterwards with us answering additional questions we had. We would absolutely recommend this tour totally worth it.
Response from Host, Nov 2025
We appreciate the recommendation!

Kevin was out of this world. His story telling abilities brought the past to life before your eyes. He was incredibly knowledgeable, created a suspenseful environment. We cannot recommend this enough. The added tour in the dungeon set the tour apart from all others!
Response from Host, Nov 2025
We appreciate the awesome recommendation. Thank you!
Buddy_K, Oct 2025
Was disappointed, only saw 3 places including dungeon. No alleyways or graveyards. Could barley hear tour guide due to size of party and the busy streets

Even though the guid was knowledge it wasn’t quite the experience I was expecting. Not very many ghost stories or history of ghosts.
Noelle_B, Sep 2025
Not overly scary, very entertaining. Mo, the tour guide, was very insightful and funny, and did a great job immersing the entire group.

Response from Host, Aug 2025

Alexus_G, Aug 2025
You should book tour the provost before the dungeon, and the tour would make sense. Love the tour for the historical haunted stories while walking to the dungeon. tour guide, Jack, was awesome and very detailed and always kept your attention. The tour company takes your safety seriously while crossing streets.
Response from Host, Aug 2025
Thank you for the 5-star review, Alexus!

We look forward to welcoming you back, Jason!
Leslie_O, Jul 2025
Not what I expected. I thought it would be just inside a dungeon. We had to walk a lot and it was hot. The stories weren’t that creepy it was more to do with history. The guide was really sweet and nice though.
Response from Host, Jul 2025

Loved hearing about the spooky history of the Holy City. This was our second time doing this tour over the years. Our tour guide, Sarah was phenomenal!
Response from Host, Jun 2025
We are thrilled to hear you had a great time on Sarah's tour!
Tammy_H, Jun 2025
Not very entertaining, would have liked to see more than just an alley and building fronts. We literally could have walked down any street and looked at the buildings and googled their history for free! our guide was very nice but did walk extremely way too fast. Parts of our group kept getting left behind after being cut off from other groups and pedestrians.

Had a great time with our guide Zoe walked around the city and saw places we may not have seen and learned things about the people and the city
Response from Host, Jun 2025
We are glad to hear you enjoyed your tour!
Justin_S, May 2025
The initial caller was a bit rude, although the tour guide seemed nice. But shortly after the tour began, someone in the back had a medical emergency. We tried to let the guide know, but she wasn't paying attention; at no point did she look back or check on everyone. My party ended our tour to ensure the guest received medical help. Unsat.
Eli_M, May 2025
My wife and I did the walking ghost tour with Drew, and had a great time! Drew made the stories come alive.
Response from Host, Jun 2025
We are so glad to hear you had a memorable tour with Drew.
Barb_B, May 2025
Not worth the money. There are better tours available. Description said would be dropped somewhere else when done.
Not being from area, we parked by address given as end drop. Guide said no. Same place. Heard some stories and saw very minimal historic sites. Passed some and guide didn't even comment. When over, guide just said it was over. Can follow her back or go on own. She didn't even go over places that we passed on our way back. Not scary, no cemeteries or even talked about. No churches pointed out.
Response from Host, May 2025
Hello, we are sorry that you were disappointed in the tour. Our tours very rarely end in the location from where they begin, but we do take guests back to the starting location. Your guide gave instructions at the end of the tour that she was going to walk everyone back, but if anyone wanted to go their own way they could at that point. Regarding the information, on ghost tours, we don't stop to discuss or comment on purely historic places. We have a history tour that does that. It is a ghost tour, so the stops are going to focus on ghost stories. We are more than happy to provide a refund. Please feel free to reach out to our Tour Guide Manager, Andrew Kuhn, at andrew@bulldogtours.com to discuss further.

Our tour guide Monty was fantastic. She was professional, knowledgeable and funny. We loved being able to tour the inside of the Provost Dungeon. That was a huge plus. We definitely recommend this Bulldog Tour

Did the late tour and had a great time listening to all the local stories with the family. The following day we were able to return to some of the sites and get to see them in depth.
