FANTASTIC Tour - Our tour guide was amazing!! She was very knowledgeable about Austin being a local herself and was a fantastic story teller! I really appreciated her historic references and photos that went along with each story and stop. She even went out of our way to take my husband and I to go see one of the moon light towers which was just so generous! I would highly recommend this tour even if the ghost stories aren’t your thing. This historic context that our guide provided enriched our trip so much!

Interesting ghost stories - These were very interesting stories. You must be able to walk quickly from stop to stop, so not for slow walkers. No seating until the Driskoll Hotel.

Fun! - Will was fun and knowledgeable. It was great time. Gave us some extra information that’s usually on the “murder” tour. Take that tour too. The info was thought provoking. Thanks for the creepies Will!

Very informative tour - The pictures mainly from 1800s & early 20th C that our guide used on his i-pad enhanced his talk. He was very knowledgeable & we could all hear him well. Throwing in some humor would have been nice.
