We had a great time! The tour started on time and our guide was awesome she kept everything lively n fun. We got to learn a little history of the places we visited took the final tour so we could get to the cemetery at night! Would recommend to anyone interested in the paranormal or just wanting to go out n learn something bout San Antonio!

This tour was fantastic! We had Lady Lux who was fun and knowledgeable…learned a lot about the dark history of San Antonio. I appreciated that we had an AC van because it was super hot! I highly recommend you bring bug spray because you will get out to a Cemetary where I was eaten alive! Also don’t wear crocs or sandals because you will be walking through the grass and all the sticker burrs will be hell on your feet.

Our tour guide was so informative . I found the information she was sharing was a very important history of San Antonio. She made it fun and at times kept others from joining our group which I appreciated, since some kids there were clowning around at the Menger hotel.

We had a great time with Dark Alley! She was excited to share and took us to so many great places! Definitely a great night

The guide Lady Lux I believe was amazing. She was informing and hilarious. The stops were interesting and the bus was very nice. I even caught a ghostly figure on my phone at the MENGER hotel. Very cool!
Maddie_G, May 2026
It was so cool! Dark Alley did not miss anything. She was the coolest and made me feel very welcome! I definitely recommend for ghouly folks ! And we saw GHOSTTTT!!!

We had an absolute blast on this tour. Autumn was fantastic and completely made the experience. She had the perfect mix of spooky storytelling, humor, and energy that kept everyone engaged the entire night. You could tell she genuinely enjoys what she does, and that made the whole tour feel way more personal and entertaining instead of just another scripted attraction.
The bus itself added so much to the atmosphere, and the stories about San Antonio’s haunted history were actually really interesting. There were moments that were creepy, moments that were hilarious, and overall it was just a really fun way to experience the city at night.
Honestly, this ended up being one of those experiences we kept talking about afterward. If you’re visiting San Antonio and want something different to do in the evening, definitely book this tour. And if you get Autumn as your guide, you’re going to have an amazing time.

The perfect mix of history and culture with a splash of true crime, Sister’s Grimm Ghost Tours being it all. The shopkeeper Lili is delightful. Tour guide Sean is a wealth of knowledge. This is a fantastic way to sit back relax and see the city. Bonus points if you book the night tour for a little extra spooky flair.
Kristina_D, May 2026
Our tour guide just wasn’t the greatest for our taste. She was a bit loud and obnoxious at times, trying to be funny but wasnt, and unfortunately it ended up being our least favorite tour during our stay. We still appreciated the experience and information shared, but the overall vibe just wasn’t what we were hoping for.

Great value and fun
Loved Lady Lex the tour guide the had great stories and history of the city. Robert the buss driver was great as well.
Pamela_S, Apr 2026
Lady Lex was beautiful as she escorted us with her bus driver Pete around Downtown, San Antonio. She elaborated on some of the ghost history in San Antonio at multiple sites. This was very informative and entertaining as she remained in character throughout the tour. Kudos to them both or quit thinking and keeping the show going when they ran into some driving issues due to Fiesta road blocks and road closures.
Nancy_G, Apr 2026
Awesome experience! Our guide, Lex, was amazing! The tour was fascinating and just scary enough! Highly recommend!
Michael_L, Apr 2026
What a fun and interesting tour!! Yukon Sean did not disappoint he was funny and very well informed about the spooky and chilling history of San Antonio. We really enjoyed the graveyard part of the tour the best!! Browsing in the Sisters Grimm shop was cool beginning while getting our wrist bands and the women was very nice. I liked Sean’s costume as well a perfect touch!!
Craig_G, Mar 2026
Great tour we learned about some of the not so wonderful things in San Antonio but it was fun! Very knowledgeable about some historic buildings, too!
Bumbblebe, Mar 2026
Lex was a great guide, funny and informative! Recommend the bus tour if you want to limit walking. There is still some walking, especially in the Graveyard.
Awesome tour!
May_E, Mar 2026
The tour guide new a lot of information and was very entertaining I give her five stars and I would give her more stars if I could
Roberto_R, Mar 2026
This is a great bus tour and historically informational and interesting for new visitors to San Antonio.
Adrian_B, Mar 2026
I enjoyed the history and the stories. I would never walk around in a graveyard on my own, so that was fun. There is power numbers,m; i didn't "feel" anything int he graveyard until the group was a good 10-15 feet away from me. It was a rush! Fun times! Highly recommend. A little out off at the end though with a request for tips. I already paid $220 for four tickets, but maybe that's normal, and I'm just old.
Haydeeanna_Y, Mar 2026
Lady Lex and Jeremiah were amazing. I loved hearing about the history, crime and spooky side of San Antonio.
Laurie_M, Mar 2026
It was great experience good history lesson. Sean was a hoot and dressed for the part and kept our attention
Connie_S, Feb 2026
Very informative and fun. 2 1/2 hours flew by and wished it could have kept going! History and spooky loved it!
Delicia_M, Feb 2026
Sean, our tour guide was very entertaining and knowledgeable throughout our tour. We learned a lot about the history of people who had ties to San Antonio. If you like murder/crime mysteries, you must take this tour.
Jennifer_P, Feb 2026
We had an absolute awesome time, we had Lex as our tour guide and Robert as the driver. We have nothing but wonderful things to say about them both. Lex especially does her job especially well. I highly recommend booking, and asking for her specifically. We drove 3 hrs to come to San Antonio and we added this tour as a bonus and Lex did not disappoint. Next time we come we will definitely do another tour, as I saw they had others!
Mark_L, Feb 2026
Fun trip and great history lesson including many ghost stories. I was hoping my wife would want to stay at one of the haunted place but oh no :). The host nice blond young lady was very knowledgeable and spoke very well. We enjoyed the trip and would go on another one with the same company again.
Wendy_C, Jan 2026
Our tour guide Laura was a great guide and storyteller! It was interesting and fun experience. The energy in the group was really good too.
ErinSenel, Jan 2026
Was great to hear snippets of history, ghostly sightings and unsolved murders of San Antonio! It ended in the oldest cemetery. I would recommend.
Brian_L, Jan 2026
Had a great time. Lexy was great and a perfect guide for this type of tour. Even though we had a “Karen” in our group, tried not to let it ruin our experience. Lexy made the whole experience very fun and entertaining!
Maxwell_S, Jan 2026
It was fun and spooky and so informative! Lexy ruled! Great locations and so much history and fun. Would do again!
Shelby_C, Jan 2026

Angie_B, Dec 2025
