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.

Our roughly 2-hour bus and light walking tour brings San Diego history alive… one ghost story at a time. Be prepared for a combination of authentic history, genuine creepy moments, and cheesy joke laughs to lighten the mood. Be ready to experience an array of emotions and learn about the dark side of SD as well.

Join us on our tour, and you’ll experience:

Our proof that ghosts exist
Captivating history told in a theatrical way
Professional dramatic storytellers in costume

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.

Victoria was our guide on this tour and she was fantastic! We went to the Whaley House (just outside/not the inside tour), inside the Horton Grand Hotel (just the main lobby), the Villa, the William Heath Davis House (we actually went inside this spooky house) and finally the cemetary in Old Town S.D. It was an awesome experience, especially the William Heath Davis House! Victoria was funny but also had a lot of information on the sites. I highly recommend this tour! Just a note: If you buy tickets to the Whaley House, be sure to give yourself at least an hour a half before you embark on the Haunted San Diego Tour. Sometimes the Whaley House tours run late or over the expected time. We ended up having to leave the Whaley House early so we could make it on time to the Most Haunted Tour.

As an SD native, it's great to take a tour like this and discover bits of San Diego history I didn't already know. I was very much looking for a balance of theatrical and factual, and Victoria mixed the two perfectly. In the end, she'd totally won me over. The tour was very professional and you could the company cares about the accuracy of the history it relates, and deeply respects the sites it visits (enough that we were let in after hours at one location!). Of the many SD ghost tours, this is definitely worth the time and money.

What a great experience and a San Diego must! Victoria was an excellent host full of charmingly spooky tales riddled with factual accounts and historic rheotric. The tour bus was appropriately decorated with a macbre theme and entertaining musical selections that highlighted Victoria's creepy narrative. We truly enjoyed the insertion of San Diego legend and the mention of different historical societies that are working so hard to keep these delicate locations "alive". We really had a wonderful time and want to thank the team at Haunted San Diego for making our first trip to this beautiful city a special one.
