Worked with what we had - My guide Elizabeth did a phenomenal job bringing the ghosts of DC to life. It was a bummer that we couldn’t walk through Lafayette Park or in front of Blair House because of the black fencing, but Elizabeth did the best she could regarding that hindrance.

Family friendly ghost tour - Dina (sorry if it's spelled wrong) was a great guide and very accommodating - we were worried about incoming thunderstorms, and she made sure she was prepared with ponchos and kept time in mind so we could beat the weather. She was very knowledgeable and shared great tidbits of history along the way!

Ghost tour - We had a fun time on our tour, and we learned many interesting facts about DC. I would recommend this, as I felt like some of the ghost stories would not be public information. Our tour guide, Elías, was very friendly, helpful, and easy to talk to. We enjoyed the tour and the little ghost stuffed animal! I also thought that our tour guide did the best he could with all of the blocks closed down for the 250th anniversary. And we still had an enjoyable experience.

Fun Experience - It was a fun evening with a friend. We got to learn history about the buildings that we would have not known. Our group was small and not very interactive but would have enjoyed it more if they got into it.

Not doing that again. - The tour was great for the seedy and unexpected darker history of the sites, and the guide was funny and knowledgeable. However, the "ghost detector" app someone was using on the tour gave my name. I do not know that person and had not given my name. That was unsettling. If it was a gimmick by the tour guide, that is a poor decision. I was very upset by the experience and probably will not ever do another ghost tour. Next time, just tell the dark history stuff that is entertaining, and don't try to scare the customers.
