We took the Shadows of the Revelry tour. Our guide was Minnow. I would rate our tour a 5. It was so much fun...and creepy! Minnow was very knowledgeable and enthusiastic about the history of the area. She was able to answer any questions we had. I would recommend this tour for anyone looking for something different to do in Galveston.

The ghost stories were great, they were very informative and gave a lot of history on Galveston from pirates to brothels and the girls working in them
