Our guide, Ben, was informative, knowledgeable, engaging, and at times hilarious. He managed to keep a group of upper elementary age kids enthralled and asking questions throughout this tour....which is no small task. I would recommend this tour to everyone that wants to have a fun and educational evening time experience in Colonial Williamsburg.
Touchy tour

Rick did a good job with 40 plus people but during the course of the tour it bothered me that despite the downturn of Covid he put his hands on over half of the people in the group, sometimes on one or both shoulders, sometimes on the arm, arm in arm with two young ladies at his side - which required quite close proximity. I assume some people didn't like being touched - I didn't - and I thought social distancing should still be somewhat encouraged by the tour company.

Absolutely an amazing experience despite the cold Rick was able to keep our minds off of it with his Extraordinary way of educating us on not only the history, but the true events that happen around Williamsburg. Me and my mother had a wonderful time and she even caught a TWO BLUE orbs in a bunch of photos. An amazing, spiritual, fun, humbling and eye opening experience thanks to Rick!!! Thank you Rick!!! We will never forget you and your stories!!!

Our tour guide was amazing!! We had a super group of people on the ghost walk! The tour guide, I think his name was Rick, he made the ghost walk so exciting with his stories. He made you feel like you were there experiencing it as the story unfolded. He even shared some pictures and the people in the group was taking pictures and sharing them.
Awesome experience

Randy was an awesome story teller and engaged our preteens the entire time! We learned a lot about the history of the town and the ghosts that haunt the town buildings. We will definitely do this again!

15 minutes before the tour was to start while standing in the dark at the starting point I got a text that the tour was cancelled, because we were the only customers. Clearly they knew this fact for more than 24 hours and could have cancelled a day or at least hours before so we were not there at 8:00 for nothing.
Response from Host , Dec 2021
This is false and I was the person who was speaking with you through text. We will cancel the tour if we do not have enough guests sign up. I texted you an hour before the tour, not 15 mins. You may have checked your notifications 15 mins prior to the tour time but our company texted you an hour before. We clearly says in our terms and conditions that tours may get canceled due to low numbers in off season and to leave a good phone number in case changes are made. We do not know in advance how many guest will sign up for tours. Each night is completely different because of weather and/or many other factors that contribute to tickets selling. Guests buy tickets for tours in advance, throughout the day, and right up until tour time. We have no idea each night the number of guest that will sign up. We would never ever make a decision on a tour 24 hours before when type of business runs on a daily ticket sales. We are a small business!!!! All tours each night are evaluated at 6pm and a decision is made at that time whether or not they will run. Your 24 hour accusations are completely false and you have no clue the ins and outs on how a tour company runs. That is why in our terms and conditions it states "tours may cancel due to low numbers" We can not and will not send out tours that do not have enough guests signed up to pay the guide for the night!
We are very sorry for your inconvenience but giving false allegations online are simply uncalled for and not cool especially when we communicated with you. We try to make every effort but we just have no way of knowing how many tickets will sell each night. These are very hard working people that do not deserve your bad review that is not even honest. You not being completely forthcoming and making up lies about how we run our company. You continue to make bully statements through text on what "we better do" and now giving a bad review through a social outlet. We did not inconvenience you on purpose and apologized for the inconvenienced that was caused.
