The tour guides were knowledgeable and answered so many questions. They did an awesome job making it interactive and fun. I would like to check out their other tours as well that include food!

We really enjoyed this tour. It was a great combination of history and serial killers, with smaller side tours mixed in. It is lengthy, at almost 3 hours, but we definitely enjoyed it and really got a lot out of the tour. Ted, our guide, was the highlight of the afternoon. He really knows his stuff and added a lot to the history side of things. We learned a lot, were grossed out by some of the serial killer stories, and would 100% do it all again. Highly recommended.

This was a great tour with the wicked minded adult in mind. Awesome history with the creepy side. Will definitely try other tours and refer to others. Great book takeaways and awesome experience.
