Not this ghost tour!
LisaA
, Jun 2022
I would not recommend this specific ghost tour. Although the carriage ride was pleasant, the stories were told too fast, without inflection and poor presentation. There were many children on the tour so perhaps we received a G rated version. In this historic city, I am sure that it could have been more interesting.
Response from Host , Jun 2022

Shannon and Jason were great. We were here for a girls trip, and decided to do the haunted tour. Shannon was so knowledgeable and then afterwards it made us even go see one of the graveyards. Would highly recommend it. Shannon was so beautiful and southern charming. Jason had his one speed but I loved it. It let Shannon pack more information in and enter act with the group.

We perform checks on reviews
You can only submit a review or rating of an experience to Viator if you were the person who made the booking through Viator. Before publication, each review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information for each of the following criteria: who, what, how, and when. If the system detects something that contradicts our publication criteria, the review is not published. When the system detects a problem with a review, it may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site. In some cases, we will also send you an email asking you to validate your review before it is published. All you need to do is click on the link provided in the email. After publication, our team checks each review reported to it as not meeting our publication criteria. Tripadvisor reviews that appear on the Viator site are subject to the same checks and moderation processes as set out above. It is not necessary to have booked an experience through Viator (or Tripadvisor) to submit a review of an experience to the Tripadvisor site.
