Living in Staten Island and coming to NYC my whole life, I didn't know half of the things that our guide Jordan told us about last night. He was extremely knowledgeable and with a great sense of humor made for a fun night. We saw some beautiful and spooky sites while learning about important points in history. I definitely want to read up and visit these places again. Highly recommended for anyone wanting to get a new perspective of the Village area.

Hi Tracy, Thank you so much for your review of the tour you took with Jordan. It's always great when a local gets the chance to take one of your tours and learns new things. We hope to see you again in the future! -The Team at TopDogTours

Liz was great!! The only reason I am giving it 4 stars instead of 5 is becase it wasn't as "ghosty" as we were expecting. Liz was very knowledgable about the area and had some really cool stuff to tell us. She took us through some really neat areas of the Village. It was a lovely night and I would highly recommend this tour company and especially, LIZ!!!!

Hello, Thank you for taking the time to leave a review of your tour with Liz. We just wanted to make the structure of the tour clearer to anyone who may be taken aback by your 'not ghostly' comment. On the tour you visit 3 haunted houses, 2 haunted bars, a haunted theatre, a park that's a cemetery, a haunted library, and the haunted site of the worst industrial accident in American history. Though there is no way for us to guarantee you see or hear a ghost, we think that our tour is very ghostly indeed. It is true we visit several other spots in the village, but the overall theme of the tour is ghosts, horror, and scary stories. We are however glad that you enjoyed your time with Liz and had a great time overall. Safe travels!

I live in NY and have never done a tour before but this one has made me want to do more! The tour was fun and full of really interesting history of the village---so many stories I knew nothing about previously. It was also the right amount of spooky --- just enough to make the hairs on your neck stand up a few times. The guide was extremely personable and knowledgeable and it was clear she had a passion for history. I highly recommend taking this tour on your next visit to NYC.
