We have been to New York several times and have done the “usual” touristy things so this time we wanted to do something different. We decided on the Greenwich Village ghost tour and we had a great time! Our guide, Victoria, told us about the history of the area as well as all the ghost stories. We had a great time walking around and seeing the Christnas lights/decorations in the area while soaking up all the info Victoria had to impart. All of the “kids” from the 12 year old to the 26 year old enjoyed the tour and, of course, we parents did too! Thanks so much!!

We attended the Greenwich Village Ghost Tour with Victoria as our guide. First of all, Victoria was a superb guide, very knowledgeable, engaging, and friendly. In addition to acting as a guide, she was more than happy to talk to us about all things NYC which we really appreciated. There are ghost tours that try too hard to scare you without providing much substance. This tour was not one of those, rather it provided a really neat history lesson on the oldest parts of Manhattan with a ghostly and whimsical touch. It was great, for example, to see the building in which Edgar Allan Poe first introduced The Raven. We really did not expect to get as much as we did out of the tour. Thank you, Victoria!

James really knows his stuff. I learned a lot about Washington Square and many other areas that I had never heard of until our tour. Ha! No spoilers from me. You'll have to take the tour with James to find out all the spooky facts. Also weird things kept happening with lights we passed under or were near. At one point we asked James if he was actually a ghost. True Story.
