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!

Owner will attack if you write a negative review call you a liar or racist. Point blank I understand it’s a small business but do not go alone or be prepared for a rough area. Go ahead David get mad it’s true

Hello, this sounds more an attack on the neighborhood then the actual tour. You didn't show up and didn't leave any messages to the guide except that you wanted a refund from a tour you didn't attend. You were also granted a refund. You agree and pointed out a review below that was a man who refused to come to the area because their are people of color here. Why would our neighbors be telling you it's bad? We live here. I'm sorry it scared you but taking it out on the business when you are afraid of the neighborhood from something you heard? There was a whole group on the corner and another group across the street arriving back. Maybe direct this to our Mayor then the citizens trying to make a neighborhood better, would be more helpful.

The old Victorian homes were incredible and the ghost history behind them amazing. Quinton was a great guide and I would recommend this tour to everyone.
