This is my second time doing the tour and I wouldn't mind even going a third time. Our guide was awesome and the entire thing was super informative! some of the things you learn aren't super well-known even as a local, I'd recommend this to anyone interested in the paranormal!

Fantastic Spooky Experience

Karen_C, Jun 2025
If you are a lover of the paranormal, ghost stories or even urban legends then next time you visit fort Myers you want to join one of these awesome tours of the downtown area. I’ve done multiple city tours claiming to be a ghost walking tour and this one by far was the best I’ve ever gone on! Chris Balzano is a professional and expert on this topic and a great story teller. We truly felt spooked and everything he shared was very believable.

Our tour guide, Chris,...

Heather_S, May 2025
Our tour guide, Chris, was very knowledgeable and extremely friendly and entertaining. We enjoyed the tour very much. Would highly recommend!!

Avoid. Not worth the time.

wendy_t, May 2025
We are great fans of Ghost and History tours. We have been on probably 20 or more. This tour had no real information with a lot of generalities that made it all appear to be made up. Typically in a good ghost tour, there are facts interlaced with myths but this tour had no specific information at all. We had hoped to come away with at least a little information about Ft. Myers history. We left early as guide knew nothing about the history or had any believable stories.

Perfect tour!

Danielle_R, May 2025
Chris was great! Fun tour mixed with scary stories and facts about Fort Myers. Chris was a great guide full of excitement about the subject matter!

Great Tour

Maureen_O, Apr 2025
The guide was very enthusiastic and informative. The stories were interesting! It was a nice pace, I pushed my son in a wheelchair and the route was flat and relatively easy.

Fun haunting history or Ft Myers

Sharon_R, Jan 2025
Walking at comfortable pace. Good for all ages, physically. Careful if you get the creeps easily. Good history.

No show

Douglas_W, Jan 2025
Unfortunately the guide was a no show due to a scheduling error. However the company offered a full refund with no questions.

Great time for the family!
