The historical aspect was good. Know it is a lot of walking from Trinity Episcopal Church to the Strand. Ghost stories were vague. Not sure if guide didn’t know details or what. But he genuinely tried and was very nice to all of us.

We assure you that we will look into this and see what we need to change in order to improve future tours. Thank you for giving us this feedback.

Stephanie our guide was great. She was very knowledgeable in the history of Galveston. Walking the empty streets of downtown at night was very cool too.
