Loved our guide and storyteller Katara. She had a lot of history as well as great stories. We were lucky enough to have a beautiful night in Cleveland to walk. I will definitely recommend this to friends and family. We have taken other ghost tours in bigger cities than Cleveland. This one is by far the best.

    Great Experience

    Michael_G, Oct 2025
    More informative than scary, but well worth the time and money spent. Our guides were great and very personable

    Not a great experience

    Sara_S, Sep 2025
    Not a great experience. The guide was nice but struggled with any kind of cohesive tour. Her stories a were hard to follow and the locations she had us stand were not ideal to hear her and the speaker system was not great. We ended up leaving the tour half way through it was so poor.

    Response from Host, Sep 2025

    Hello, Sara! We’re so sorry your tour didn’t deliver the enjoyable experience you were expecting. While it’s good to know your guide was friendly, the issues with storytelling, sound, and standing locations are concerning. Having to leave early shows just how disappointing this must have been. Could you email us at guestrelations@tourismo.com with your booking info? We want to review this with our team and do what we can to make things right.

    Ramble ramble ramble

    Jeanette_E, Aug 2025
    We really couldn’t wait for it to be over (rambling about people seeing ghosts over the years with zero context or site visits other than cemetery) and then they left the group a mile from where we started. Hard pass.

    Response from Host, Sep 2025

    Hi, Jeanette! Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with us. We’re very sorry to hear that the tour felt more like rambling than storytelling, and that being left far from the starting point added to your frustration. That’s not the experience we want for our guests. Could you please email us at guestrelations@tourismo.com with your booking info so we can better understand what happened and make things right?

    Lots of history on this tour

    Angela_C, Aug 2025
    Our guide was wonderful, shared so much history and information. Lots of walking, need to change your description of the tour to more like 2 miles.

    Response from Host, Sep 2025

    Hi, Angela! Thank you for your kind words about our guide and the history shared throughout the tour! We love knowing you had a great experience. We also appreciate your suggestion about clarifying the walking distance. Guest feedback is so valuable in helping us improve. Thanks again for touring with us, and we hope to see you again for another spooky evening!

    Fun but lacking

    Jesse_S, Aug 2025
    It was fun but lacking proof or details to validate the stories Tour guide filled the gap of story well but I feel like more developed stories with pictures or something would bring it better.

    Response from Host, Sep 2025

    Hi, Jesse! Thank you for your feedback. While we’re glad the guide helped make the stories engaging, we’re sorry the experience didn’t feel complete without more proof points or context. We’re always looking for ways to improve the storytelling, and your suggestion of adding visuals is very helpful. Please share your booking info with us at guestrelations@tourismo.com so we can look into your tour and follow up with you directly.

    Spooky

    Hector_G, Aug 2025
    Enjoyed it thoroughly. Great story telling and factual occurrences. Graveyard part was the most spookiest

    Response from Host, Sep 2025

    Hello, Hector! Thank you for your kind words! We’re so happy you enjoyed the tour from the storytelling to the factual history behind the hauntings. The graveyard is a guest favorite for good reason, and we’re glad it gave you that spooky thrill. We’d love to see you again soon for another adventure into the paranormal side of history!

    Fun, could have been better

    Kami_S, Aug 2025
    Lots of good info and stories. Just wish it was told in a more scary way. Guide didnt experience alot, more just what she heard.

    Response from Host, Sep 2025

    Hi, Kami! We really appreciate you taking the time to leave this feedback. It’s good to know you enjoyed the stories, but we’re sorry to hear the delivery wasn’t as chilling or immersive as you hoped. Could you send us your booking info at guestrelations@tourismo.com? That will help us investigate further and work on making things right for you.

    Horrible

    Stephanie_D, Jul 2025
    Very disappointing and not even close to worth the money. Tour guide was a horrible storyteller and my husband and I walked away from every stop wondering what on earth we just heard.

    Response from Host, Sep 2025

    Hi Stephanie, thank you for sharing your experience with us. We’re truly sorry to hear that the tour did not meet your expectations, especially regarding the storytelling, which is such an important part of the experience. We’d love the chance to learn more about what happened and make this right for you. If you could kindly email us at guestrelations@tourismo.com with your booking info, we’ll look into this right away and do what we can to make things right.

    Much like any ghost tour,...

    Andrew_M, Jul 2025
    Much like any ghost tour, if you are new to an area and you wanna learn a little bit about the city’s history, there’s not a better way to just quickly get a feel for the city. Plus, you get to see a lot of where the nightlife and interesting buildings are right away. The guide seemed very knowledgeable and friendly.

    Response from Host, Sep 2025

    Hello, Andrew! We’re so happy you enjoyed the tour! A ghost tour is indeed a fun way to discover a city’s haunted past while also seeing its nightlife and character come alive. We’re glad our guide’s friendliness and knowledge helped make the experience even better. Thank you for joining us, and we’d love to see you on another tour in the future!

    The perfect way to see the city

    Elin_S, Jul 2025
    This is a great way to see the city and learn facts that you would never know otherwise. It was a very enjoyable evening!

    Response from Host, Sep 2025

    Hello, Elin! Thank you so much for your kind words! We’re thrilled to hear you had such an enjoyable evening and that the tour gave you a chance to see the city in a new light. Our goal is always to share those hidden stories and little-known facts that make the city special, and we’re glad you found it both fun and memorable. We hope you’ll join us again soon for another adventure!

    Good historical tour.

    Annell_L, Jul 2025
    A great history tour. The tour operators were very knowledgeable about local history. The stories were more interesting than spooky. Would have been better in the dark....I will keep this is mind when booking during summer. The operators were very friendly and answered questions. Would have liked more theatrics (costumes and such). Overall a good tour!

    Response from Host, Sep 2025

    Hello, Annell! We’re so happy you had a good experience with us! It’s great to know that you found the stories interesting, our guides knowledgeable, and the team welcoming. We truly appreciate your suggestions for adding more theatrics and agree that the setting can make a big difference. If you’re able to join us in the evening next time, we think you’ll really enjoy the added atmosphere. Thank you again for sharing, and we hope to host you again soon!

    Cleveland history with ghost stories

    Tina_R, Jun 2025
    The tour was represented as a “ghost tour” but we did not feel that was our experience. We did get caught in a big rain storm but the ghost stories fell flat and didn’t make sense. The tour should focus on the historical aspects of downtown Cleveland with ghostly anecdotes. We were shown many historical sites and told great stories about the history of the area but the “paranormal” didn’t make much sense. The history and the details of the buildings and the cemetery were very interesting and these ghost stories could be incorporated. I would not book a “ghost tour” again but I might consider a historical tour of downtown. Finding out the A in Moses Cleaveland was dropped when the City was named for him, the stories or the buildings, Native American burial sites, statues on square were all informative. Our guide seemed to know a great deal about the history of the area and he should focus on sharing his knowledge. Both guides were very nice and we enjoyed walking the downtown area with narration.

    Response from Host, Sep 2025

    Hi, Tina! We’re sorry to hear that the ghostly side of the tour wasn’t what you were hoping for, even though the history was enjoyable. Your feedback on incorporating both is very helpful. If you wouldn’t mind sharing your booking info at guestrelations@tourismo.com we’d like the chance to review this and make things right.

    Interesting, But Bad Audio

    Justin_T, May 2025
    When you could hear, be that in the busy downtown areas or the quiet cemetery, the local history and ghost stories were interesting. There was something off with my tour guide’s mic and the sound kept getting cut off whenever my guide wasn’t facing us. So if you do decide to attend this tour, hope that the sound works.

    Great Time

    Christian_M, May 2025
    We had a great time! The witch and her minion taught us history and places of Cleveland that we never knew of.

    Spooks in the Snow

    Katharine_Y, Feb 2025
    We had a ton of fun and as locals learned a lot about the City that we didn’t know! It was a wonderful tour! Valarie was a fantastic guide as we battled the awesome Ohio winter weather. 😁👍

    Response from Host, Feb 2025

    Thank you for sharing your experience! We're so glad you had a wonderful time and were able to learn something new about the city. Valarie truly makes the tour special, even in the midst of an Ohio winter! We’ll be sure to pass along your kind words to her. We can’t wait to have you back for another tour soon!

    Spooky and informative!

    Michelle_M, Nov 2024
    Eileen was great and my kids had a fun time learning about Cleveland’s haunted history. We had a great time!

    Response from Host, Feb 2025

    Thank you for your fantastic feedback! We’re so glad to hear that Eileen made the tour enjoyable for you and your kids. It's great that you all had fun learning about Cleveland’s haunted history. We’ll be sure to pass your compliments along to her. We hope to see you again soon for another spooky adventure!

    Very Disappointed; DO NOT recommend

    Roxy_R, Nov 2024
    Been to Cleveland multiple times and thought we would give this a try. Very disappointed. Started off by being told the EMF detector that was supposed to be included, per there web site, was not. It was one of the reasons we booked so it would keep my 8 year old entertained. Showed them our booking and where it was stated and they didn't care, they just shrugged us off. Then we were Introduced to the guide, but couldn't tell you our guides name bc her accent was so thick, which also made it hard to hear/understand her stories. The stories were plain, she had a hard time getting them out and didn't seem very enthusiastic. It also felt like most of them were the same thing. We were NOT impressed and others that we spoke with in person were not impressed/happy with the tour either. We would NOT recommend this tour.

    Response from Host, Feb 2025

    Thank you for your feedback, and we truly apologize for the experience you had on the tour. We understand your disappointment, especially regarding the EMF detector, which should have been included as mentioned on our website. We’re sorry for the miscommunication and for not addressing your concerns properly at the time. We also apologize that you had difficulty understanding the guide and found the stories less engaging than expected. We take your feedback seriously and will use it to improve future tours. Please reach out to guestrelations@wejunket.com with the name your booking was under, and we’ll be happy to assist you further. Thank you again for sharing your thoughts, and we hope to resolve this matter to your satisfaction.

    Fun time. The event was...

    Eric_H, Nov 2024
    Fun time. The event was closer to 90 minutes with multiple stops at location with proposed supernatural testimony.

    Response from Host, Feb 2025

    Thank you for your thoughtful feedback! We’re happy to hear you had a fun time and enjoyed the multiple stops and supernatural testimonies along the way. We’ll definitely pass your compliments along to the guide. We look forward to having you join us again for another exciting tour!

    Spooky season

    The guide, Star, was very informative and lively. She also let us know where we could find more info about the stories she told.

    Loved learning a little...

    Paulette_G, Oct 2024
    Loved learning a little bit of Cleveland's history. Was hard to hear on account of being right down town in the midst of a home Guardians game, but overall was good!

    Cleveland Rocks

    Kevin_L, Sep 2024
    Brilliant tour, great company. The guides went beyond what was expected. Interesting information to follow up on

    Great tour!

    denee_m, Sep 2024
    Elizabeth was a great guide. We enjoyed all the historical information and ghost stories. Even enjoyed bit of extra detail on our way to our hotel.

    Ghost tour adds highly enjoyable local flavor!

    Greg_P, Sep 2024
    Valarie was a great guide, lots of local knowledge of history and ghost sightings. personal tour, courteous and professional. would recommend!

    Fun ghost tour!

    Victoria_M, Aug 2024
    Really glad that I booked this ghost tour. Star was our tour guide and she couldn't have been any better. She was very informative, fun, and listened to you as well as answered questions you may have had. Learned a lot about the city and the ghosts. Didn't actually see any but the emf detectors that we each had were all doing different things so there was definitely something around especially in the cemetery. My son felt something touch his shoulder and got pretty spooked by it. I also liked how even though the tour ended she walked back to the starting point with us. Felt very safe during our adventures and had a blast doing it. I highly recommend this tour.

    Too much for too little
