On a whim, my daughter decided she wanted to take a haunted tour of San Diego, mind you, I had begged for years for her to go with me, so I was elated!
The price of the tour was reasonable by comparison to other tours I had taken, the bus was clean and air conditioned, which was greatly helpful as San Diego was incredibly hot and muggy Labor Day weekend.
The tour never lagged, our tour guide Dante kept us entertained with stories of history and ghostly nature.
The sites we had toured were ones in which we had never even heard of! Being guests of San Diego on probably more than 50 times over the past 10 years, we had never even seen these places and it was amazing to be touring something we had not seen in previous visits.
I would have liked to go into all the places we visited, but understanding that they are either closed for renovations/closed for business hours, etc. it was understandable that we could not enter Villa Montezuma or Whaley House. So I was not to upset about that, because we did enter two other venues, and quite enjoyed those sites. Horton Grand Hotel was an amazing site with fantastic history and as a avid Wyatt Earp lover, I was especially excited to visit there. The most exciting site was the visit to the former hospital, where some guests on the tour encountered ghostly activity with the meters provided on the tour. That was so fun!
Ending the tour at the grave yard was a perfect example of excellent planning! The ghost droppings were a great touch and we couldn't have been happier with our tour.
Thank you Dante!
