Except for being a little cold, it was a very interesting tour. Tony was very a fountain of knowledge about the history of the neighborhood and the houses we visited. He had stories of ghost sightings at the various areas we visited. A very worthwhile tour.

Our tour guide Tony was very knowledgeable on the history of the neighborhood that he gave us a tour and learned a lot about that district Allowed us to use ghost hunting equipment which I thought was really cool Overall Tony did a great job with the weather being terrible Overall Tony did a great job with the weather being terrible
