Colonial Williamsburg, Virginia - Gracie was great! She had so much energy and her knowledge was exceptional! Gracie included us all in the tour, as she had us be the characters in her stories. The other people in my group were a lot of fun too!hank you!

We saw ghost!!! - Super tour, and we SAW ghost. I know I wouldn’t have believed it if I didn’t see it in person. Our guide told us to keep taking pictures of everything with the flash and we did, and as we were walking away from one of the taverns, we looked at the picture that we had just taken and saw what looked like face is staring back at us. It was so so good, creepy but good. I would definitely do this to tour again.

Ghosts, Witches, and Pirates - Dec 2025 - For the ghosts tour, our guide "Gracie" made it feel truly haunting. She really created atmosphere along on the streets of Williamsburg alone at night. Not too scary for kids. The tour is all outdoor so dress appropriately. It was pretty cold the night we went, but once the stories started, we never felt it. We were too enthralled. If tales of ghosts and pirates are your interest, this was great!

A fun night - Our tour guide "Gracie the Witch" was so entertaining. Not only did she teach us all about the history of Williamsburg and its "dead", but she made it very interactive and animated. A fun night!

Spooky Fun!!! - It was fun to hear the spooky stories of Williamsburg. Our tour guide, Lexi, was so cute and nice. She even walked us back to our car because we couldn't find our way back. We had a really good time.

What a joke - What a joke. We weren't really taking this seriously to begin with because afterall, it was just a silly "ghost" tour. But all we did was walk around public streets looking at buildings that supposedly were haunted while the tour guide showed us blurry pictures on her phone that she "swore" were real. I was embarrassed to be there. Oh, and she used the most fake Cockney accent the whole time for some reason.
