Goosebumps and laughter - What a fun, educational, and tantalizing experience with the expert guidance of historian, Gracie and Mr. Pirate, we laughed, we wondered, got goosebumps and chills. The warm evening for March made it enjoyable and my pictures have some items of interest… incredible walking these historical streets in the uncrowded evening. Thank you for a once in a lifetime experience!!!

Fun spooky time! - Michael was a great storyteller and very knowledgeable. The tour lasted about 1.5 hrs and hit all the cool spots. Our grandson (10) is still talking about it but had no trouble sleeping. 1-2 miles of walking. Wear comfortable shoes.

Our guide spoke way too fast and didnt seem to finish one story before going to the next... - Our tour guide, Grace, didnt dress in colonial clothing. She spoke SO fast and jumped from crazy story to crazy story. She seemed to have messed up dates and times and acted like a crazy person half the time... I feel like we didnt learn much and just wanted to leave half way through. Even my two girls didn't understand what she was saying most of the time. Pretty disappointed.
