Additional Information

Delve into the shadowy history of San Francisco with a real ghost hunting experience down its historic lanes.

You will be using contemporary ghost hunting equipment, including a personal EMF detector throughout your journey.

Starting near the renowned Transamerica Pyramid, your ghost hunter guide will lead you down spooky lanes, through enigmatic districts, and around heritage-rich street corners. Stand on ancient Gold Rush graveyards, hear tales of mysterious deaths leading to supernatural events, visit sites of famous brothels, learn about hauntings from the Gold Rush era, and how the gang wars in Chinatown transformed the city.

However, this is not just a ghost tour – additionally, the tour includes stories of unaccounted deaths, outrageous murders, the former red light district, and more…

The suitability of children’s participation is at your discretion - the tour does involve some scenes of violence and the eerie, but it is generally deemed suitable for families.

The tour is designed to accommodate wheelchairs and strollers, although there will be two moderate hills - kindly inquire if you have any doubts.

Ghost Hunt Tour Review - My two kids and I were on Jamie’s Ghost Hunt Tour last night. Jamie was an entertaining tour guide - answered all the questions my kids asked. He was respectful of the guests (and the ghosts), and knew a lot of cool stories about SF Chinatown's spooky history/folklore. Would recommend this for a fun night out.

Fascinating SF history fun for everyone - Been in SF since 1992 and learned some really cool fascinating facts. My 15 year old son who was making fun that we were doing a tourist attraction but he ended up having a great time. It took you back in time in SF. The stories were so interesting. The tour guide did a great job keeping it lively. Loved the ghost hunting tools provided and used. Highly recommend this to learn about SF history and explore some of the oldest streets here.

Best tour I have taken...ever - Aliya was the best tour guide i have ever had, and I have done a lot of tours As a sceptic of paranormal, i do these for fun. But she was perfect blend of historical fact and explaining energy forces in a plausible manner. Our family had a blast
