Sara was an awesome tour guide! I will definitely come back when I don’t have my kiddos and ask for her for a more “grown up” tour. She was very patient and knowledgeable when my kiddos and I asked questions. Believe me my kids asked a lot! I definitely recommend her as a tour guide!

Thank you for joining us on our Ghosts of Galveston Tour. We're happy that you had a good time with Sara and even happier to know that she was patient with the kiddos. We would definitely love to have you back for one of our adults on tours!

Strand District Ghost Tour was on Thursday evening. There were only 2 of us on the tour. Our Pirate John was running a few minutes late. We met outside of Patrick's bar on Strand. The tour was supposed to be 90 minutes. He spoke very fast and stumbled on his words. He didn't walk next to us, but rather we appeared to be chasing him down the street. The history of Galveston was interesting! The pirate jokes were lame. One of the buildings we were supposed to have access to was locked by a security guard and our tour guide seemed lost. Our tour lasted 60 minutes and he left us outside the Tremont Hotel. Our next trip we are planning on taking The Red Light District tour and hope it is better.
