Really interesting, and fun outing! - Jared was great! Still on script because he’s still new, but he was captivating in his reading and story telling. I enjoyed seeing the city at nighttime and hearing the tales of the haunted Capital buildings! We had a great time! Nice to see lots of other people on tour with us!

Ghostly good time! - Jared led our group on a chilly, damp October evening. Perfect night!! Jared was very good. He is still learning the script, as a relatively new tour leader. But his delivery was very good! Nice guy and a fun walk.

Great, very educational, performative, may not be best for people with short attention spans - Good tour and informative. Sometimes It's a little hard to imagine because you're only looking outside of about 5 buildings on the tour. But There's no other tour that is performative like this. This tour is best for people who are history buffs and really intersted in history. More at an upper high school and college level.

Okay - The ghosts of Albany tour was okay, it was a cool crispy night to walk around and it felt spooky outside.
I thought the tour was going to be an hour and a half long, but was only an hour. Our tour guide Jacob was nice, he said we were his 5th tour he's given.
In my opinion this tour was not really worth it for $60. (That's for two people). :/

Meh - The stories were very interesting, and the tour guide was very nice. But we started 10 minutes late, and were still done in less than an hour. For the price, I don't think it was worth it.
