Annie was great, very informative of the history of Pittsburgh as well as the buildings we visited. She had photo cards which really help you picture the scene, she even shows you where a speakeasy is. Overall great value and fun, especially if you like history or spooky stories. Definitely recommend!

Allen was a great guide on a beautiful fall evening! My friend and I were looking to learn more of the spooky history of Pittsburgh and left with a lot of new facts to share when guests come to town. Highly recommend for locals or folks visiting.
