Customer Reviews
Just went on a ghost tour tonight, it was great! Our tour guide Mary was well versed in the ghost history and really made the past come alive. It was very enjoyable and next time I'm in town I'd love to take one of their history tours during the day! Big bonus there were cats that accompanied us for part of the tour.
What a fun experience! It was cool learning about the places I had visited only feeling the energy around. on this tour, i captured this image……is it someone’s lost soul? Thanks to Mary and Erika! Will definitely recommend.
First visit to Albuquerque and I’m glad I booked this tour. Emily is a great storyteller and the tour included lots of stories and facts about old town. Andy was also very helpful managing our group. I highly recommend this experience. No ghosts spotted but saw a shooting star and enjoyed the spooky vibes.
