Greenwich Ghost tour - Vince was an amazing guy. Friendly and knowledgeable. Weather was terrible and cold but he powered through. He needs a raise!

Fun and Factual - This tour was incredible! Our guide was Vince, who was super knowledgable and kind. He touched on all the spooky ghost stories of the village, but also catered the tour to our interests in literature as well. Definitely go, and ask for Vince!

In the twilight the places seemed really haunted, even, of course, we saw no ghosts. The tour took us to magnificent streets in the West Village and we learned a lots of interesting facts about the history of the neighbourhood.</p>

Tour canceled by operator. TripAdvisor refunded. 866-322-5942 - Tour was canceled by operator on the day off but TripAdvisor took care of the refund after we called them. It was a pain finding the phone number but the actual call was painless.

Maybe something along the lines of Historical NYC Walking Tour with reference to possible hauntings in the area. Not sure, but the name isn't the best. Also, there were quite a few kids on our tour, and they looked really bored. I don't think it was meant for kids at all.</p>
