Great tour! You walk around with him and learn about haunted spots here in the city. He talks about factual events that took place in the city's history. He is entertaining and keeps you engaged throughout the tour. Its worth the money and time.

I am a conservative person, and was always hesitant to do one of these “ghost tours” but I loved this human!! He was great, very professional, attentive & knew a lot of historical facts which I loved since I appreciate the value of St. Augustine history. Worth every dollar, would do it again any time. Also felt very safe, regardless of COVID. St. Augustine is one of the few places that I feel at peace to go during this crazy 2020 time. Stay safe everyone. Blessings!!’ 💛

I really love the Sherif's Ghost Walk tour. The stories are exciting but also the Sherif is a really interesting guy. He really gives excitement to all of his stories with a dramatic flair without any silliness. He is engaging and entertaining while also being ironically funny. His tour is worth its weight in gold!

This tour was amazing!! He had the best stories to give throughout the tour. You could tell that he really loved what he does. The stories you hear here will be the best stories you’ll ever hear of St. Augustine.

This was an excellent tour with great story telling. I loved his energy. You can tell he very knowledgeable about St. Augustine and he throws in a lot of real facts. My husband and I were entertained. He did a wonderful job I would take his tour again.

We have taken this ghost tour twice and it was a blast each time. Not that it was different, we just shared it with the in-laws the second time. Fun, quirky, and unique this tour adds history and context to the ghosts and haunted corners of old St Augustine.

My friends and I were excited to go on a ghost tour of this old city, but it was only a matter of time before we found ourselves regretting the decision. The host spent much of the tour telling tangential stories that did not contribute to our knowledge of either the ghosts or history of St. Augustine. He did, however, find it appropriate to frequently grab the shoulders of participants on the tour. He held a contest for the "prettiest girl" on the tour, which he said would be judged by the ghost of a "cute, little fat girl" ghost named Sally (who, in fact, was a woman in her twenties who died a gruesome death after some men "had their way with her"). He had the women on the tour stand against the wall in groups of three for this selection to take place. Three women were given rings to take home after this strange selection. All in all, it was an uncomfortable experience. I would not recommend this tour unless you enjoy outdated and sexist humor.

We went on this ghost tour because it was #1 on trip advisor, but we were so confused as to why it would be. The tour was very long and the stories were not very scary. The sheriff talked for very long periods of time and it just wasn't very entertaining.
The scariest thing about this tour was the way the sheriff talked to and about us (a few teenage girls). His comments were borderline harassment and made us feel very uncomfortable. He held my friends hand and made her hug him in front of everybody on multiple occasions. Keep in mind this girl is 19 years old.
I do not recommend this tour, and if you go, make sure there are not just women in your group.

The Sheriff was a good storyteller, though nothing was particularly scary. This may not be his fault as there are always the sounds of the city as distractions.
As a single guy by myself, this didn't bother me: but I noticed he was a little "hands-y" with some of the women. If you're a woman who doesn't like extra attention, I would avoid this tour because you may very well get it. There was even a contest at the end for the best woman, (determined by the ghost "Sally", I think). All of the women ended up getting a ring. You may find it charming, but I thought it was a little weird and unnecessary. At one point b/c of a story (I don't remember the context), he asked the couples on the tour kiss. When one couple was hesitant to, they were basically peer-pressured into it. They were obviously uncomfortable with this, and I felt uneasy for them.

Is there a way to buy tickets in advance? How much do tickets cost?

The sheriff usually has a table set up at the meeting point starting at 7:45pm where one pays him in person only. no advance sales. Website prices are Adults $18 Kids $10. Hope this helps

He will take the tour to you and the tickets are free because you actually died horribly in the hotel and are not a ghost 👻 on the tour.
