Great experience. Stories... - Great experience. Stories were fun and being able to go inside one of the buildings at night when no other tour was allowed was great!

A fun and informative walking tour. - We had a great time walking through the Gaslamp district and hearing the history of how the area developed. Our tour guide was very knowledgeable about the area and the histories of the building, and sometimes intersections, where things happened.

A fun time, even for us nonbelievers… - I would highly recommend this tour as it had a lot of history about San Diego and some fun ghost stories as well. I had an issue getting there based on the directions on Trip Advisor, so I wound up missing the first 15 minutes and had to start at the second stop. If you take the trolly, get off at the Gaslamp District stop on the GREEN line, not the 5th Avenue stop on the blue line. Other than that it was a great time and Kat did an excellent job as the host. Brian’s customer service was outstanding, he went above and beyond when there was an issue.

Disappointing - Not enough history, not enough ghosts - The tour was unconventional but not in a good way. The ghosts were an afterthought and instead our tour guide was focused on making jokes. It was fun at first but at the end of the day there just wasn’t enough history nor enough ghosts. Most of her presentation consisted of ridiculous impressions and jokes followed by “it’s also super haunted”. Some on the tour clearly enjoyed it but it definitely wasn’t what we were looking for. Additionally, she wasn’t very good at displaying the photos she brought with her and she walked extremely fast, often beginning her speech before most of the group reached the site.
