Response from Host, Oct 2025

History Rich

Natalie_M, Sep 2025
My group greatly enjoyed learning about Nashville’s hidden history in this tour. The “ghost tour” part, however, came off as secondary to the history lessons. This tour also requires a lot of walking, especially up stairs and hills. Participants with handicaps should be warned before purchasing tickets.

Response from Host, Oct 2025

Hello, Natalie! We greatly appreciate your honest feedback. It’s wonderful your group enjoyed the hidden history portion, though we’re sorry the “ghost tour” part felt less central than expected. We take your note about walking, stairs, and hills seriously, and will ensure clearer accessibility warnings going forward. Thank you again—we’d love to welcome you back sometime.

Teri_S, Jun 2025
Missy was very informative and personable. She was in touch along the way with people from my son in laws family. She could not possibly have known. We very much enjoyed the tour.

Disappointed

Wendy_H, May 2025
Directions & posted signage none, guide's voice not applified could not hear. It was very boring. We were extremely disappointed.

Response from Host, Oct 2025

Hello, Wendy! We sincerely apologize for your experience. We understand that the lack of directions and posted signage, combined with the guide’s voice not being amplified, made it difficult to hear and resulted in a boring tour. We are truly sorry for the disappointment this caused. Please reach out to guestrelations@usghostadventures.com with the name your booking was under, and we’ll be happy to assist you further. Thank you for your feedback and understanding.

It’s great for whoever...

Fernando_R, Jan 2025
It’s great for whoever loves ghost stories and history. We ended going on the tour on a rainy day so we had the tour guide to ourselves so that was a big plus! Easy tour very close to Broadway where all the city fun is!

Response from Host, Feb 2025

Thanks for joining us for a tour! We're glad you enjoyed your impromptu private tour, and that you braved the rainy weather with us. We hope to see you again in the future.

Incredible Ghost Tour with Alex

Barbara_W, Jan 2025
We had the most amazing tour guide, Alex. We hit the jackpot with him! He is incredibly knowledgeable of the area due to his personal research and experiences. I never thought that downtown Nashville could be so haunted. I would love to book another tour with Alex as our guide. We could’ve talked to him for hours. He was also nice and friendly. I have been on multiple ghost tours around the country (including several in New Orleans) and this is my absolute favorite by far!

Response from Host, Jan 2025

We truly appreciate your review! It’s great to hear that Alex’s knowledge and enthusiasm made the tour stand out as your favorite. We’ll certainly pass your compliments along to him. We hope you’ll join us again for another tour with Alex—we’d love to show you even more haunted spots in Nashville!

Jodi_L, Mar 2024
Griffin was very knowledgeable and friendly.. He asked everyone at the beginning where they are from, why in Nashville, Any paranormal experiences.. I have had several family members visit beyond the grave which I shared with him after the walk. He is a wonderful host!

AWFUL DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY!!

Teresa_E, May 2023
The tour started 30 min late so we could wait for a trainee. Tour guide Rese spent more time talking to trainee than guiding the tour and sharing stories. Tour guide walked too fast and when I stopped to take a picture he kept going. There were only two of us who showed up for the tour so he could have stopped for me. His stories were not interesting, entertaining or understandable. The trainee that we waited for seemed completely unengaged which was frustrating because we started late for him. I was bored after the first 15 minutes and we left early. WORST TOUR EVER AND A WASTE OF MONEY AND TIME!! I'm going to check into getting a refund!!

Response from Host, Dec 2023

Teresa, we'd like to sincerely apologize for the experience you had on your tour. It's unfortunate to hear how this was handled. Please reach out to us at guestrelations@wejunket.com with the name your booking was under, and we'll be happy to assist you further. Thank you.

Pick up areas were too far from downtown hotel. Unable to get Ubers to pickup locations. Walked thru some bad neighborhoods to get to pickup area.

Fantastic experience!

Kimberly_B, Apr 2023
My friends and I had an amazing time on this tour. Griffin was a fantastic guide who was both knowledgeable and entertaining. It was a great way to get to know more about the history of Nashville and its paranormal activity.

Response from Host, Apr 2023

We are so thrilled to see you and your friends had an amazing time on the tour! We are pleased to hear that Griffin was a fantastic guide and you learned a lot about the history and hauntings of Nashville. We do hope to see you all again soon on the next US Ghost Adventures tour!

Boring

Neil_H, Mar 2023
The guide was late. We were grouped with two other parties; a family of 4 and the a large group of kids under 12. They should have made them aa second group. We did not visit any of the stops on the tour page, but instead he took us to one abandoned parking garage and told us two or three smalls stories. Then we walked a little further to a second parking garage where he told us a few more stories. The stories were not engaging and he spent most of the time saying he has photos of all these ghosts and proof of it. We have gone on ghost tours in other cities and the best ones are when the guide tells a good story rather than trying to prove the existence of ghosts.

Response from Host, Apr 2023

Thank you for letting us know about your experience. It's unfortunate that you did not enjoy your tour and we will investigate the issues in your feedback promptly. We would love to have you message us at 844-757-5657, or email us directly at guestrelations@wejunket.com. to get more details. Thank you.

Reece the Grim Reecer!!

Kathleen_G, Mar 2023
Reece was a great Grim Reaper!! He was very knowledgeable and his quirky sense of humor was perfect! We all enjoyed the tour. However, I would not recommend doing this on a Saturday evening. Broadway is just too busy.

Response from Host, Dec 2023

Thanks for this great feedback!

10/10 would NOT recommend

Matthew_C, Feb 2023
The guy wasn't prepared at all and said "I don't know" a lot. It was honestly a horrible experience.

Response from Host, Dec 2023

We're sorry to hear about the experience you had on our tour. Our guides are trained and expected to provide an informative and professional tour, and it's unfortunate this was not the case here. Please reach out to us at guestrelations@wejunket.com with the name your booking was under, and we'll be happy to further assist you.

The tour guide was great...

Nicole_L, Feb 2023
The tour guide was great but the tour was over priced for a walking tour with only 3 stops. The tour could have offered more and more interaction

Response from Host, Dec 2023

Thank you for your feedback, Nicole. We're glad you enjoyed your tour guide's storytelling, but it's unfortunate you felt the tour was lacking. Please reach out to us at guestrelations@wejunket.com with the name your booking was under, and we'll be happy to assist you further. Thank you.

Mike was a tremendous guide.

Exploring some tunnels!! Overall history in the back alleys of Nashville. I did learn that Christmas is a sketchy period of time in the alleys.
