Fun Ghost Tour - This was a fun tour! Dain, our guide, was knowledgeable and very skilled at walking backwards to keep the story going between stops. I learned things about Sacramento’s history and enjoyed the ghost stories.

Fun History - Alexis was a great tour guide, the best on the block! We learned a lot of Old Sacramento's history and it's ghost stories. I would definately recommend if you are looking for something to do on a night out. The tour is approximately 1 hr and you can extend it for an extra fee.

Fun way to experience Old Sacramento - I did the Boos and Booze tour. Fun stories about ghosts and Sacramento's history, yummy cocktails in old, haunted locations, and Jack keeping us moving along at a good pace.

Horrible History - So wrong! Our guide was 20 minutes late and then proceeded to tell us it is only a 30 minute tour even though our ticket said one hour. He focused on history of Sacramento, but so much of what he told us was wrong. There are NOT tunnels running under the streets of Sacramento!! The few ghost stories were just added in and poorly told. I do not recommend this tour. Even our tour guide more than once told us to take the underground tour at the museum. Don’t believe anything this tour tells.

Don't waste your time or money - This was the worst tour I've ever been on. The guide knew little to nothing about Sacramento or California in general. I've been on several "ghost tours" in various cities around the country and most the time, it's some cool history stories mixed in with some spooky legends that make for a fun evening walk around the city. This was not it. I would not recommend this tour at all.
