If you're in to Poe conspiracy theories, ask for Olivia!!! She was a treasure trove of interesting information! My 9yo was so engaged and you should of heard the questions he was asking!!! So deep!! She blew his little mind!! We had perfect weather for it, too, which was the cherry on top! We had dinner just around the corner at the Proper Pie beforehand, which made for a really great family evening!!! Would highly recommend!!! Just FYI, there's no sign at the meet up location. We met them in front of Richbrau Brewery. If you go the the bottom of the hill on 20th St, there's a fenced-in lot for the Holocaust Museum that you can park in!! Hope you see some ghosts!!! 😅🤣😅🤩

The FreeMason building was amazing to see. I absolutely loved learning about Edgar Allen Poe. The beautiful house the corporate man owns was nice.

Enjoyed our tour by Beth. Very informative about parts of Shockoe history. Interesting info about some resident ghosts. Wished we could have seen the tunnel up close but skies were getting dark.

Thanks for joining us for a tour! I’m glad to hear that you enjoyed your experience. It can sometimes be difficult to get to the tunnel entrance given its distance from our other tour stops, but if we can ever help point you in the right direction so that you can go view it, please don’t hesitate to reach out to us. We hope to see you on another tour!
