It was great! Very informative and fun! Our tour guide was awesome and answered all our questions, showed pictures and proof of hauntings, and personal stories. Would definitely recommend!
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ What an incredible experience! Since this was our first visit to Williamsburg, we thought a ghost tour would be a fun way to learn about the town’s history—and it ended up being one of the highlights of our trip. We took the 10:00 PM tour, and once the streets grew quiet, it truly felt like we had stepped back in time. Walking through the dimly lit streets, surrounded by centuries-old buildings, created an eerie atmosphere that made every story come alive. At times, it was easy to imagine the spirits of Williamsburg’s past still lingering in the shadows. Patrick was an outstanding tour guide. He was knowledgeable, engaging, and had a wonderful way of blending history with ghost stories that kept everyone entertained from beginning to end. We left with a much deeper appreciation for Williamsburg’s fascinating past—and maybe a few goosebumps, too! If you’re visiting Williamsburg, don’t miss this tour. It’s the perfect mix of history, mystery, and fun, and Patrick made it an unforgettable experience.
Patrick was a wonderful guide! My husband and i enjoyed our tour and would recommend!
Patrick was a phenomenal tour guide. He was quite knowledgeable about the local paranormal history. We were able to view some eerie unedited photographs taken by participants from previous tours. My BFF and I schedule a ghost tour in each area we travel to and this one, by far, was the most authentic. It's definitely a must for anyone's itinerary.
Booked a last minute ghost tour in Williamsburg. The guide told stories and provided a tour of the historic town.
Patrick absolutely made our experience ! His tales and pics were witty and funny. The admission fee was a perk $20/2 (TripAdvisor coupon). We had a snafu with our tix and ended up for the 90 min instead of 60 min and it was still worthwhile. I will say it was incredibly warm and the humidity was high, however, we were not disappointed in doing it at all. The walking was totally doable.
Our group was large! When photos on a phone were shared it was difficult to see them. Our tour guide, Patrick, was fine.
We had a booking for the 10 PM ghost tour. Unfortunately that was canceled. But viator was so helpful in getting us rebooked to the 9 PM tour instead. And even comped us for an extended tour with 4 additional haunted locations for free. Our tour guide was excellent. I’m sorry we don’t remember his name. He was an older gentleman and was very funny and very knowledgeable. Will definitely recommend this tour for everyone.
Great tour! We did the extra half hour addition for a few extra chilling stories at properties and we definitely captured a photo on our phone camera that spooked us looking back at it! The tour guide was fantastic and we had a very enjoyable experience!
We had the best time. Christine was SUCH a good storyteller, very animated and great at building tension in the best way. The walk was not too long or intense, and the time flew by. Will definitely recommend anyone to take this tour, and even better if they can get Christine!!
