Our guide Joe was great. Vert enthusiast and engaging. Some history mixed with some myths. I felt the tour had limited stops and was not worth the price.

Our ghostly host, Magic, was a delightfully entertaining spirit. We enjoyed his charming, yet creepy, stories which were all shared with a touch of wry humor. It was great to have an opportunity to stroll around Old Town after dark, and we even captured an unnatural orb on my daughter's camera as a spooky souvenir.

Nice experience. It ended 15 minutes early. I thought we’d go inside more historic buildings. It was all outside. Joe was well versed on ghost stories.
