The day we’re supposed to go it is pouring down rain and when a refund was requested they said we can pay $10 and reschedule. Absolutely ridiculous

The tour was super spooky and very fun! My sister and I had a great time learning about the grim happenings in Old Colonial Williamsburg and the unfortunate souls still roaming around. I can’t imagine having a better guide than Catherine, and I thank her SO MUCH for taking us around in the absolutely freezing cold weather. 10/10
