Best ghost tour I've been on - We had such an amazing time on the ghost tour! Mike and Nicole were fantastic guides — super fun and full of energy. The stories were really interesting and kept us hooked the whole time.The boat ride was super enjoyable too, especially at night. It was a great mix of spooky and relaxing. We highly recommend it!

Must do - Absolutely fantastic. Great ghost stories and Captain Mike and Vic were wonderful. From checkin lady (sorry don’t remember her name) to the end of the tour, everything was superb. This is a must do on your trip to Charleston.
