I think it depends on your tour guide. Our tour felt rushed,and our tour guide swore a lot,which I didn't appreciate since there were kids on the tour.

Not too long and reasonable for kids. Educational and a good variety of stories. Nothing crazy that you couldn’t bring your kids along.

Fun experience! I went at the 4 PM one and wonder if it would be better after dark but also feel like the experience would be totally different taking photos so it just depends. Tour guide was full of stories and shared some photos of ghosts that others had taken on different tours. It was very interesting to learn about the history of Galveston.. I had no idea!
Response from Host, Feb 2025
Thank you for your review! We're so glad you enjoyed the tour and found Galveston's history fascinating. The 4 PM tour offers a unique perspective, and you're right—after dark brings a whole different vibe! We'd love to have you back for a nighttime experience. Happy hauntings!

Guide was knowledgeable but., didn't do anything to build a mood. Supposed 90 minute tour lasted 60.
Response from Host, Dec 2024
I'm sorry you were disappointed. The tour guide may have cut the tour short because of impending rain it was storming the day you came didn't want you to get caught in the middle of a rain shower rainy days are very difficult

This tour was so popular that we had to be broken into two groups! Of my five Galveston ghost tours this one was the most informative and the most frightful. Here we took to the residential streets, passing all these grand, old homes while hearing the chilling stories. Our guide even had a personal story of being pushed down a staircase at one residence. “I hate this house,” he said while showing genuine fear of the place. He also showed a photo revealing the spine-chilling tale of how a member of his tour suddenly got scratches on her back from just being at one of the haunted sights. If ghosts aren’t your thing, the tour was worth the time just to see all the cool, old houses on the tour!

I enjoyed every minute and because off season there were only
Four on the tour. The history was fascinating and the ghost stories were really engaging. Tyler was an excellent tour guide. At 75 and having some challenges walking, I was thrilled it was at a pace I could easily do.

Our tour guide was awesome. I can’t remember his name :( but glasses and beard. Super knowledgeable, genuine and gave a great history of the sites. I thought it might be cheesy but it wasn’t at all! Very interesting!
