Fun Spooky Tour - Lisa was a wonderful tour guide! She was flexible and creative with her scheduling, and most importantly had some genuinely creepy and mysterious stories to share. Her stories were a nice blend of historic and personal, which made it even more fun. Highly recommend this activity for a different way to get to know Boothbay Harbor! We also really enjoyed Neat, the whiskey bar/speakeasy that capped off our tour. Great drinks!
