    Fun short tour. A little walking with stories about criminales of note. Tour guide was fun and profesional.

    This walking tour was so fun! Perfect little path around Moore Square and the information about each event kept us invested the whole time. Andrew is clearly passionate about his work and truly made the experience worth it. Can't wait to revisit with my bestie :)

    Fun Night Out

    This was a fun night out. We had dinner before and ice cream after so it was nice to get out and walk a bit. I grew up in Raleigh and had never heard of any of the true crimes. Our guide really did his research going into details of each of the crimes. He also answered any questions we had.

    Great story telling!

    Stories were very interesting! I wanted to hear more about them. If only we had more time to learn more about them.

    A new tour worth taking.

    Andrew is a great guide and we enjoyed this tour greatly. Despite the rain, we learned about the crime stories he shared in an energetic and entertaining fashion.

    Fun for any true crime junkie

    Lots of walking so bring water. Super entertaining tour guide and VERY knowledgeable. Some less mainstream crimes that show personal touch and research.

    Amazing!

    Maria_R, May 2025
    Interesting stories. Fact based. Had we wanting to drive deeper into the stories and learn more! Amazing

    A unique date night

    Randy_A, May 2025
    Had a wonderful time and enjoyed the story telling experience. Not too gory or too much walking. Downtown Raleigh has its own characters but we were mainly left alone since we were engaged with the guide. I would recommend it.

    Response from Host, Mar 2025

    Hello, thank you, and I'm glad you enjoyed the tour. I am wondering what stopped your review from being 5-stars? Viator strongly rewards businesses for five-star reviews and heavily penalizes businesses for reviews of four and under. If you don't think this tour warranted 5-stars, I would love it if you could send me an email with feedback so we can know what to do to improve our tour.

    Enthusiast, friendly, fun

    Andrew was a very enthusiastic tour guide. You could tell he did his research and really knew his stuff. He was friendly and made the tour interesting while telling about 4 different crimes that happened in Raleigh.
