Book the tour and have a great time - Our guide was Lizzie and she was funny, dramatic, a little campy, and definitely showed a zest for doing the tour. We had a fairly large group of 18 separate people and our group of 4 really had a great experience

Great fun on our first night! - This was a great way to get to know the area on our first night visiting birthday Harbor. Our guide was wonderful and very animated as she told the ghost stories. We all had lots of fun and made new friends. Be aware the tour takes place at night and there is a lot of dark on lit and uneven ground.

My husband and I had a... - My husband and I had a great time on this Ghost Tour. No jump scares. No gore. Just some fun, amusing, interesting, spooky historical accounts and locations of restless spirits and hauntings. Our tour guide was fun, lovely and a great storyteller! The tour, itself, was a generally leisurely walk... nothing too physically taxing...with an unexpected bonus, fun, relaxing pit stop for a tale or two. Overall, we really enjoyed the lighthearted, laid back, mildly spooky, yet history layden tour. Would definitely recommend it!

Very disappointed. - My wife and myself were on our wedding anniversary in Boothbay Harbor and wanted to do something special for our last night there, so we made tour reservations for 7:00PM that night. We did not make any other plans for that day as we were looking forward all day to taking this tour. Less than two hours before the tour was to start, we received a text stating that they cancelled the tour, due to their tour guide falling sick that day. They also stated that we could reschedule for another day or receive a refund, which we opted for the refund. Now I understand that things happen in life and people unfortunately get sick, but why wait for less than two hours before the tour was to start at 7:00 PM to notify us when the guide fell sick that day. This is especially true when their own cancellation policy states they will give refunds, only if you notify them at least 24 hours in advance. In addition, when I received the text it went out in a group text, with two other phone numbers attached. It makes me think may they didn’t have enough people signed up, just saying is seems funny. Also, not very professional to include other people’s phone numbers. Finally, what gets me the most, is that as of four days ago, I have not received my refund, when they were very quick to take the money, but not return it. As I said before, vey disappointed.
