The guide showed up at 7:58 when it states to be at the meeting point no later than 7:45. The guide was definitely phoning it in. We have done other ghost tours in other cities and this was by far the worst

Guide was very good. Animated, funny, entertaining, laid-back. Tour was easy paced. Buildings were fun to see in spite of protests and construction.

It was a nice walk with interesting facts about the various buildings. The tour guide Dena was funny and we enjoyed it.
