Overview
Go inside!! We Are the Only Tour Entering Locations! Covid willing.
On our OFFICIAL Haunted San Diego Ghost Tour, you will hear spine-tingling stories about real people, history, folklore, and the ghosts that make San Diego one of the most haunted cities in the west.

We are the #1 highest reviewed SD ghost tour on TripAdvisor, Yelp, Google and Facebook.

Additional Info
  • Service animals allowed
  • Public transportation options are available nearby
  • Suitable for all physical fitness levels
  • Our Haunted Guided Tour is small and intimate. We have only 14 seats available per tour. As such we require at least 8 people/ghost hunter in our to run. If for some reason it looks like the tour will not go (this is rare but does occasionally happen), we will personally call you with a tour update 2-3 hours before your tour is set to go. If your tour does not go, again very rare, we will refund you or move you to another date. Feel free to call (619.255.6170) us or email us with any questions or if you just want an update on how many have signed up so far. If we don't pick up immediately we will get back to you shortly.
  • Please make sure to be at the plaza 15 minutes before you tour embarks. We operate out of and pick you up from Plaza Guanajuato | 2415 San Diego Ave, San Diego, CA 92110. It is the plaza across the street and down a store front from the Old Town Graveyard (El Campo Santo Graveyard official name). You'll see our purple bus.
  • Please make sure to use the bathroom before your tour. You will be going to historic locations which have no bathroom access, and your party definitely should use the bathroom before joining us. Bathrooms can be found in the neighboring restaurants and businesses. There is a public restroom at the back of Cafe Coyote a block away. Just walk to the very back of their plaza.
  • If you are driving, please show up early to get parking.
  • Service animals are allowed provided they are small and do not disturb the other attendees. If you have a larger animal like a German Sheppard you would need to purchase an additional seat and may not be able to enter some of the locations as there are antique and very valuable, fragile historic artifacts in them.
What To Expect
1
Gaslamp Museum at the Davis-Horton House
You will enter the house that the San Diego Ghost Hunters, tell us is currently the "most active", location in SD. Even more active then the more famous ones. Entry is included! This is the house where people would come to die as it was a hospital of sorts with a dramatic history. Our guests have experienced being pushed around the house with a hand on their back when there is no one behind them and catching mysterious shapes on camera, lots of orbs here as well. Bring your camera! While we can't employ ghost or guarantee something will happen, things can and will occur we just don't know when.
2
Villa Montezuma Museum
You will go on the premise of the Villa, a museum that is closed at night. But don't be fooled, if you read our reviews, this location is one of many people's top, our presentation there is very well received and plus lots of eerie things have been captured by our guest lens. You will see this location, which is haunted by 2 people who once lived there. Strangely enough, they say, it is the first person to live in the house and the last to live in the Villa Montezuma. Perhaps you will hear music from beyond or see a haunted artifact move.
3
Whaley House Museum
You will go on the premises of the Whaley House. Find out how it all began with Yankee Jim and it's other doomed occupants. Get the, for lack of a better word, "Greatest Hits" tales at this location.
4
El Campo Santo Cemetery
What is a haunted tour without a graveyard? You will enter this location and be told the stories among the tombstones. Back to where it all began. Old Town San Diego, El Campo Santo Cemetery has a long history of the macabre. Ghosts there are disturbed as their burial grounds have been disturbed many times. Strange figures still appear seemingly to glow and float above the ground.

This was a reasonably priced and informative walking and riding tour. Our guides Archie and Rebecca were very knowledgeable and engaging. Our driver Ken made sure we made it safely to our destinations! We really enjoyed the historical facts mixed with witty puns to add humor to the tour. We were so lucky to have a group of strangers that gelled and seemed like quick friends. The tour is a bit of walking and some riding in the awesome themed bus that definitely drew attention from folks on the street. I won’t give away any of the secrets from the tour, you should experience it for yourself! 5 Stars! I wasn’t able to capture any phenomena on this tour, but each experience is different! I’d love to try it again! 👻

My 14 year old daughter is kind of a goth, so I was looking for something creepy to do for our weekend in San Diego. I read reviews and this haunted tour was the one that everyone liked and rated highly. We went on this tour last night and were not disappointed! It was the bomb! We both had a great time. Our tour guide was Rosalinda and she was fabulous; to add authenticity, she wore a black Victorian costume - my gothy kid was trying to work up the nerve all night to ask her where she got it (turns out she made it!). In addition to being entertaining and fun, Rosalinda was very knowledgeable. Make sure you film the haunted key experience. I was fiddling with my camera and missed part of it - my daughter will never forgive me. Overall super fun. Glad I didn’t take my 10 year old daughter though - not only were certain parts a little scary but some of the content is better suited for a more mature audience (stories about the old red light district and a famous madam). Next time we’re in San Diego, we will definitely do it again!

Yes Rosalinda is an amazing seamstress - she does all her own costuming, just very. Thanks for noticing and commenting on that, she'll be proud. Reach out to me via our website if you go again. Appreciate it and yous - Brian
