Ghosts & History - Jon was very knowledgeable on the history and events that occured. He took his time to explain and asked the group if we had questions. I didn't expect to learn so much history on a ghost tour. I was pleasantly surprised!

Great Tour Guide - Our tour guide on May 23 was very attentive to the group needs. We were able to make a pit stop and grab water as well. He was very descriptive in his story telling and guided us safely around the city. The tragedy that stood out was definitely the Maxwell House, the Dr, and the heated argument in the capital.

ABIGAIL IS THE BEST!!! - Highly recommend!! This tour was so much fun and laid back!!! There weren't very many of us on the tour, but she made sure everyone was engaged to their comfort level and was very knowledgeable. I also really enjoyed the seaways she made for each topic she was going to start talking about.. the only thing I would change was the time of day I went.. this was my very first walking ghost tour or any tour for that matter, and thanks to Abigail, it definitely won't be my last!!! Again, HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!

More history than ghosts - Was not what I thought it would be based on the description online. It’s less of a ghost tour and more of a history tour. The guide was very knowledgeable about Nashville.

Not at all what I... - Not at all what I expected. I’ve been on ghost tours before and this one was boring. Guide talked to much and took away from focusing on stories
