Lots of Entertaining Information Packed Into the Tour - Jenn was our guide, and she brought the knowledge of a longtime local to the tour. The stories were interesting to hear, and a couple of them were genuinely disturbing.

Philadelphia's Haunted History & Ghost Nighttime 1.5 Hour Tour - Joseph was great! He was knowledgeable in the history (and spooky side) of Philly! He was informative and funny, exactly what we were looking for on a late night walking tour!

Ghost tour - I’m sure this was an isolated incident but our tour guide was almost 30 minutes late and we only knew he was going to be late because one of the patrons called to see what was going on. The manager did everything she could to get him there and did apologize. He knew a lot of information.

No ghosts - You’d think Philadelphia would have more haunted stories but our tour was mainly a history tour. Lots of walking and few ghost stories
