    Erin is a great guide!

    Just a quick review for Erin and the company. Our guide Erin is also a teacher, and her enthusiasm is contagious. The tour mixes haunted lore with the history of Georgetown. The tour finishes with the house and stairs from ‘The Exorcist.’ An awesome way...More

    Good tour of Georgetown

    Enjoyed this tour. Good tour guide. Knew the history and kept us engaged. Biggest issue is that Georgetown is pretty active, so the quiet creepy Ghost Tour isn’t what you get. Would be scarier if it were a bit deserted. :) Overall, still good if...More

    Ghost tour of Georgetown

    The Ghost tour of Georgetown was overbooked. Too many people on walk to enjoy. The guide walks more that talks. Stopping here and there. More history than ghost tour.

    We have done many ghost tours in many cities. It is something we love to do. We figured Georgetown would be a great place to try one. Some of the stories were cool, most just typical history. We are aware that a lot of these...More

    Lots of fun!

    We really enjoy the Ghosts of Georgetown tour. It is incredibly well done and well run. The only downside? Georgetown is so busy that it is hard to get a spooky feeling. We’ve done ghost tours in Harpers Ferry and a few other places that...More

    More History than Ghosts!

    The tour was a good way to walk around Georgetown but was not a good ghost tour! We did enjoy the history of the area and the beautiful homes.
