Great tour! Lots of good historical information. Ghost stories were good great for a wide age range, especially the younger kids. Our teenager loved it.

When we showed up for our tour, there were way too many booked for our time period. There were at least 30 people. The tour guide said if anyone wanted to wait for the next tour, it had less people and would leave very soon. Our group wanted to help out, so we waited. The tour guide was terrible. He was a nice guy, but there were two main issues. First, he isn't a good story teller and it was very boring to listen to. Secondly, he made us wait over and over at each stop without talking to us or entertaining us in any way. People started to drop off out of the entire group until there was only a few of us left. My group wanted to leave half way through and we really should of. However, we all paid to go on the tour and didn't want to waste our money. Unfortunately, it was a total waste of money. Very unfortunate.

It’s extremely unfortunate your guide provided you with this type of tour. It is completely unacceptable, and we assure you that is not the standard we set at our company. We appreciate all feedback, and we assure you we will use this for future tour improvement. To make up for this, we would like to offer you free tickets to use in any of our cities, without expiration, in hopes of giving you a much better experience.

I hate to give a bad review, but this was my 2nd ghost tour in St. Augustine and it left much to be desired. My first one was years ago with a different company and it was much better. We walked through the streets, heard stories about various different inns that were haunted, and our guide was much more engaging. The few stories we heard by the fort and the two graveyards were just blah.
