Old Louisville Ghost Tour recommandé par le New York Times @ 4th et Ormsby

Aperçu
March through November, daily; limited dates in the off-season!

Impressive Victorian mansions and quirky residents have earned national attention for Old Louisville, where bourbon barons, racetrack royalty, and titans of tobacco settled in the 1800s. This narrated walk comes from books by David Dominé, who often guides groups himself. Tales involve personal experiences and neighborhood gossip. The New York Times recommends this as the first thing to do during a visitor's "36 Hours in Louisville." You'll also learn about A DARK ROOM IN GLITTER BALL CITY, David's next book—out in October 2021!

Specializing in "America's Most Haunted Neighborhood," we depart from the corner of Fourth and Ormsby, at the transitional edge of the neighborhood. If you love old architecture and spooky history, this is the tour for you! If you do not like an up-and-coming neighborhood with a diverse racial make up, this tour is not for you! If you can't go 100 minutes without a bathroom, this is not for you!

Incredible! Brenda was great and it was beautiful. Worth doing for sure. It’s long, so might skip in bad weather. Pay attention to their warning, no bathrooms.

Angelique did a great job with the tour. She even brought us hand warmers which was so thoughtful. We had ages 12 to 56 on tour and all enjoyed it.
