Took the 7:40p tour last night and had a wonderful time. Our guide, Samantha, was patient, kind and passionate about her tour. She answered all of the questions on the tour, helped me look at a photo (that maybe had a ghost!) and handled an intense situation with care. We even had the chance to use dowsing rods after the tour- I ended up buying my own because it was such a unique and fun experience. 100% will be going back on a tour as soon as we can. I’d recommend this tour over any other tour in St Augustine. Everyone on the staff we interacted with was wonderful.

March through November, daily; limited dates in the off-season! Impressive Victorian mansions and quirky residents have earned national attention for Old Louisville, where bourbon barons, racetrack royalty, and titans of tobacco settled in the 1800s. This narrated walk comes from books by David Dominé, who often guides groups himself. Tales involve personal experiences and neighborhood gossip. The New York Times recommends this as the first thing to do during a visitor's "36 Hours in Louisville." You'll also learn about A DARK ROOM IN GLITTER BALL CITY, David's next book—out in October 2021! Specializing in "America's Most Haunted Neighborhood," we depart from the corner of Fourth and Ormsby, at the transitional edge of the neighborhood. If you love old architecture and spooky history, this is the tour for you! If you do not like an up-and-coming neighborhood with a diverse racial make up, this tour is not for you! If you can't go 90 minutes without a bathroom, this is not for you!

Inclusions: Guided Tour

Exclusions: Private transportation

I highly recommend a 2 1/2 walking tour of the charming city Charleston with Ann Garris 843 224-7817. Ann was amazing and filled with enormous amounts of history of the city, beautiful homes and all points of interest . Ann was very responsive from the very first phone call until we had the pleasure of meeting her and followed up with more wonderful sites and restaurants to see after our tour. Ann was raised in Charleston and is very knowledgeable and passionate of her beautiful city. You will not be disappointed touring with Ann.
