We hit a ton of traffic and couldn't find the location. Nobody answered the phone number listed (we called over and over for help) and we missed the outing and lost $48 on the tickets!!!

Excellent tour by a knowledgeable guide who knew a lot about the history and haunts of historic Philadelphia. We did the tour on Halloween night and it was perfect weather, atmosphere and everything all decorated for Halloween added to the ghost tour!

Laura_A

The tour stops and stories were very interesting. Our guide, Josh, had a great voice and solemn presence that made the stories more entertaining. We live in the city and never did a ghost tour before, so it was also nice to gain some historical knowledge of the streets and parks we walk every day.
