Danny was a great guide! He was incredibly informative in terms of the historical aspect of the city, but also intertwined the paranormal aspect in a fun way. I went with my 12-year-old son and we visited various spots in the city that we would not have otherwise seen. It’s a great experience!

We had Alan who gave a wonderful tour. Interspersed with the history of the city were some good ghost stories. The pace was good for the walking but it was nice to be able to cop a seat here and there. Definitely recommend this tour.
