Enjoyed a walk around the Distillery District Friday Nov 6, 2020. Sarah was a most enjoyable host and storyteller! Hearing some of the tales of hauntings in some of the historic buildings was a little freaky but so well done.

Ghost tour exceeded my expectations, I was making fun of having to do a ghost tour for my 40th but I am so glad I went on it. Conor our tour guide was really engaging, informative and he knew his s#it !I am big fan of history, so was really glad to chat to a history major, getting to know Kingston, the architecture and the stories behind. Really 10/10 experience , the windy, cold weather added to the chilling stories. God and Conor really had our heart strings and we let them. My girlfriend and I loved spending the night walking and listening to epic tales. Really have to give it up for Conor, just an amazing story teller and entertainer. Thanks for a great 40th Kingston and the ghost walk team. We will be back next year for spooky season, so we can do the Fort Henry walk !!

My husband and I decided to take this tour on a whim. I study history and have always found the paranormal interesting. We bought tickets about 5 hours before the tour. Because of covid there was a limited number of tickets available. Out of 12 available tickets, we were the only ones who purchased any for 9pm so we got a really personalized experience and had a great time chatting with our tour guide, Allie. If there is any possibility for a positive in this really crazy time, it’s getting a more personalized and intimate experience. Allie did a great job not only explaining the ghosts that haunted this historic city, but giving us a cool history lesson along the way. I absolutely recommend visiting, especially with the limited group sizes.
