Fun way to learn the history of Old Town Albuquerque, and get a chill up your spine. Our guides were Charlie and David, who spun fascinating, true stories, then topped them off with the eerie, ghosty parts of the tales. They answered all our questions and never seemed in a hurry to get the tour over with. The groups are... More

I had been wanting to take the tour, especially because my co-worker, Jen was giving them. It was a very fun experience and got to know some cool stories about Old Town which now being a local, I should know and share! Will definitely encourage others to do the ghost tour :)

My friend and I really enjoyed our ghost tour; however, we found our tour guide's presentation really cheesy. He was trying way too hard to be entertaining with getting in your face with "scary" messages and walking on the tour with the "scary" laugh. He had a female assistant with him that, when he allowed her to speak, was way... More

We had a blast cruising around Old Town Albuquerque looking for clues on our scavenger hunt. We got to see so much more than we probably would have- we were learning as we explored. So many friendly people along our journey. Three hours was not enough time but we definitely will have to do this again. The whole family was... More

"It was a dark and stormy night"...sorta. It was truly cold and really windy and this was STILL the best bet for a good time on a Saturday night. The Tours of Old Town offers a delightful Ghost Tour that is a must for locals and visitors. Our tour guide, Charlie, was sensational. Not only was he highly knowledgeable about... More

The walk around Old Town at night was very cool and interesting. They showed you a totally different side of everything. The spookiest place by far was The tiny... More

Very entertaining and thorough with ghost stories and local folklore. Good tour of back alleys and places you wouldn't normally go to. Guide was very knowleageble and assistant was great with computer visuals. I would recommend and will probably do the history tour next. No ghosts seen.

I will never forget the few days I spent in Albuquerque in mid-February. I took both Old Town tours. The History Tour was very interesting. I took pics. Meredith was great with her knowledge and storytelling. I'm still intrigued by that small church. The Ghost Tour at night was especially fun and scary! The chilly night made it even more... More

My husband and I took a long weekend recently and visited Albuquerque. Neither of us knew much about New Mexico and it's rich history. Pat was our guide on the Old Town tour and we couldn't have lucked out more. What an informative and fun tour guide. He was incredibly knowledgeable on the history of the town, had many visual...

I called these folks mid-January as I had out of town company who wanted to do the scavenger hunt. I had done the hunt before and it was a fun way to tour old town. My group was not interested particularly in the competition nor the prizes, just a fun way to look around. The funny part is that I... More
