    Fascinating tour with an entertaining and knowledgeable tour guide (shout out to Josephine). The tour was full of spooky history and we actually got to go inside most of the places, which was awesome. Highly recommend!

    Not scary! But it was great look into history of the the Gaslamp district. Scope out parking garages ahead of time. Circled around a few too many times.

    It was a great fun experience. It was pretty good but not the best we have seen. But if your looking for something that takes less than an hour and a half of your time you will enjoy it. Cap off your old town visit with a little ghostly lore. This is mostly a history story of locals who have passed and supposedly continue to haunt the area.

    Getting to explore the historic buildings and hearing all the creepy stories was amazing. Our host Aiden did an excellent job escorting us and sharing her knowledge of each location we stopped at.

    Mina was an amazing tour guide! We learned so much and had so much fun experiencing San Diego in this way. She was super knowledgeable, answered all our questions, and even gave us tips for our own adventures after the tour. 10/10 would recommend this tour and Mina especially!!

    Michael is very knowledgeable and a great guide, this was a great tour and one I’d take again! Didn’t see any ghost and didn’t catch anything on camera but they were definitely there in the Cosmopolitan Hotel, the perfect end to the tour!

    We did the Paranormal Old Town history walking tour. Our Ghost host was Clara. This was our first time visiting Heritage Park at night since it is always closed. Ghost tours SD has permission to be there at night. We went to each house and Clara told us the stories and the history. Then she let us use some paranormal investigation tools she had. We picked up a couple of hits here and there. But just finding out the history on these beautiful Victorian homes is amazing. Both my wife and son were captivated by Claras storytelling. Spent about an hour at heritage park investigating and lurking around while listening to these stories. After we took a short walk to the Whaley house . Even just being outside our EMF readers starting going bananas. Pinging Red the entire time there. The activity is on another level. Afterwards we walked to the cemetery were we learned more about some of its inhabitants and their stories. Overall it was an awesome 2 hours spent with Clara. Worth every cent. We will be doing one of there other tours for sure now!! I highly recommend it for those that love spooky things and history!! Hopefully you get lucky and get Clara as your ghost host!

    Luna had a difficult time recalling specific details during the tour and was a bit all over the place. She was very friendly but very hard to follow along or be engaged.

    Loved the Ghost adventure tools and the explanation of the tools. Wish it was a little more hands on like our first stop on the tour. I will definitely go back and explore those points again. left so soon forgot to ask for the pictures our guide took UGH
