Ghost Tour on the Strand

We had an awesome tour guide! Very knowledgeable and fun to listen to. You can tell he enjoyed doing it. It was
a really nice and easy walk, and the town was very cool and historical!
A fun, very informative and spooky evening in Galveston

The Ghost Tour was a lot of fun, and very informative. My husband and I are in our 50’s, born and raised in
Houston, and we’ve been to Galveston a million times. We learned so much about Galveston during the Ghost Tour. And, will definitely highly recommend to our family and friends!!!
Two thumbs up to Andrew

Andrew was outstanding! He was very animated and engaging. He kept everyone well informed along the tour and took great care of us. The mass grave under market square was new information to me. 5 star experience!
Believable ghost stories in the making of Galveston

We called Viator and spoke with an agent so we could pick a tour that had an inside portion because of the weather. We were told this tour went into the railroad museum and the opera house. We didn’t even talk about those two locations and the tour was completely outside.
Response from Host , Jan 2022
I'm very sorry that via tour misinformed you. They completely missed the boat. As all of our websites indicate , our tours are conducted outside and we don't go into any of the buildings. They should have paid specific attention to your request. Please call via tour and ask for a refund and I'll approve it sorry for your inconvenience John 832-245-0492
Good time in the cold

Was a very active night, and we had a fairly large group. Unfortunately some of the group kept having to go get a drink or bathroom, causing the tour to be a bit shorter than would have liked. It was freezing, but still had fun, and even caught a few good ghost pics. Would do it again.
Historic Galveston Ghost Tours are AWESOME!

Our guide, Josh, gave us a fun and informative tour, despite it being frigid out. He did an excellent job of providing a mixture of history and haunted happenings. We learned a lot that we hadn't heard before. Josh was funny and very engaging, and made sure that we all stayed safe throughout the tour. Thanks for a great tour!!!

Super fun! Noel knew her history. Learned a lot and got a great work out. I had been on a different tour before and learned so much more this time! We were spoiled and intrigued.
We perform checks on reviews
You can only submit a review or rating of an experience to Viator if you were the person who made the booking through Viator. Before publication, each review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information for each of the following criteria: who, what, how, and when. If the system detects something that contradicts our publication criteria, the review is not published. When the system detects a problem with a review, it may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site. In some cases, we will also send you an email asking you to validate your review before it is published. All you need to do is click on the link provided in the email. After publication, our team checks each review reported to it as not meeting our publication criteria. Tripadvisor reviews that appear on the Viator site are subject to the same checks and moderation processes as set out above. It is not necessary to have booked an experience through Viator (or Tripadvisor) to submit a review of an experience to the Tripadvisor site.

Sorting, ranking, and search results
Viator wants to make your searches as relevant as possible. That’s why we offer many ways to help you find the right experiences for you.
On some pages, you can select how to sort the results we display and also use filter options to see only those search results that meet your chosen preferences. You’ll see explanations of what those sort options mean when you select them.
You’ll see some experiences with a “Promoted” badge, which means that the operators of those experiences have agreed to pay Viator more to have their experience highlighted.
If you see an Experience Award Winner label, the award is based on average review ratings, share of bookings with a review, and number of bookings through Viator over a 12-month period.
The importance of any one factor over any other in a sort order varies, and the balance is constantly being reviewed and adjusted. We’re always updating our systems and testing new ways to refine and improve your results to make them as relevant as possible to meet your needs.
