Guide was both...

Tabitha_O, Mar 2025
Guide was both knowledgeable and fun! We had a blast with our group! Would recommend this tour to anyone who enjoys a good ghost story and a good drink.

Great experience.

Dakota_E, Nov 2024
Steven did an awesome job with the tour. We got to learn so much history while also listening to spooky stories. It was fun and the group was the perfect size as well. Bars were all amazing stops and something different. The bars themselves were filled with history.

Hard to hear

Jacob_L, Sep 2024
Very hard time hearing the tour guide. It made the tour less enjoyable as we only caught a few of the ghost stories.

Response from Host, Sep 2024

Hi Jacob, We are so sorry that you had trouble hearing. It can get loud and crowded in the bars on weekends, which is why we keep our groups small. Our guides are more than happy to speak up or gather everyone closer if you inform them that you cannot hear.

Great Time was Had by All

Elizabeth was great!! She was entertaining and had the best energy. It truly felt like we were hanging out with a friend and exploring the city and its spooky history. Definitely recommend

Amazing experience

Stephen was amazing tour guide! He made our first night in Washington DC incredible. More than what we expected! Stephen went above and beyond!

Amazing tour with Katie K

Keely_A, Feb 2024
Katie K was an amazing tour guide. Honestly she made the tour so memorable and we had a blast. Katie even stayed considerate of another person walking up and trying to derail her tour. Katie K is the reason we’ll be doing this in the warmer weather. She also took into consideration our comfortablity since it was freezing outside and kind of formed our tour around that and let us see the sites but then also talk about them in the warmth of a building. This tour was one of the highlights of our trip because she made it so fun and memorable.

A fun night

Michael_J, Feb 2024
The guide was charming, knowledgeable, and fun. It was definitely a fun way to spend a couple hours drinking and learning about DC

Awesome experience!

Uwe_M, Jan 2024
It was a really fun experience with unique and fascinating stories. The host was really friendly and charming.

A Bit Disappointing

Jen_J, Jul 2023
Tour guide was ok - quite knowledgeable. We only went to two bars, even though the tour stated four. First bar on the tour has been shut down for years! Tour ended quite abruptly, just under two hours, and without having a drink at the Willard, which was a highlight of the tour for me.

Pass

Kelly_E, Jul 2023
It was just an odd tour. Our host was very quiet and hard to hear. He was very disappointed that we all didn’t want to drink at each stop and while there were four pub stops advertised we only stopped at two. The whole thing ended with a longish walk with no stories or anything from the host and an abrupt end where he said well this is wheeled I leave you.

I didn’t feel welcome

Ashley_H, Mar 2023
The group was great, our guide seemed annoyed by us several times. He did not enter the 4th bar with the group and asked for tips before he left us outside the last stop.

It was a lot of fun! Our tour guide, Captain Kirk, had really fun stories. The bars had great drinks!

Wonderful walking tour!

Nancy_G, Dec 2022
Rooftop bar and interesting stories and beautiful weather! Would definitely go back with more family and friends.

My best tour NDC

Louise_S, Dec 2022
My tour guide was amazing I believe her name was Katie but she also referenced to herself as "captain Kirk" Knowledgeable friendly efficient I can't say enough just how charming she was! She had researched her data and told me things I had never heard before so that was a plus

Great experience but hard to hear guide

Bill_R, Oct 2022
The history was really interesting, but the guide was hard to hear. We were given plenty of time at the 2 bar stops to order and enjoy a drink.

History tour instead of a ghost tour

Lionel_D, Aug 2022
I wish there were more ghost stories. History lessons are good, but if the title of the tour has the word “ghost” in it, I feel the majority of the tour should be focused on that.

Great time

Sapphire_D, May 2022
An absolutely wonderful tour! We had an amazing time and our guide was wonderful. Would definitely recommend.

10/10 Would Recommend!

Jennifer_J, May 2022
This was fun for my friends and me. Our guide Katie (I hope I remembered her name right lol), made the tour a remarkable experience and the drinks were great! I would definitely recommend this to anyone in Washington DC, whether you believe in ghosts or not. You also learn the history of each location, a great plus if it's your first time in DC.

Ghouls and Booze

Jody_H, Oct 2021
So much fun and a great way to learn some history and gossip. Plus, you get to drink. Our tour guide was amazing!
