Traveller Tips


However, a nice time of night to listen to ghost stories.
All good if you’re looking for a museum-style walking tour, but wasn’t quite the fun “spooky” experience we thought we signed up for!

Don’t waste your money
January_S, Sept 2023
Our tour guide loved him the tour itself again not his fault was not worth the money. I will never do this again. Nothing really haunting or scary about it. Got bored halfway thru it.
Nice evening out for a walk with history.
Marcia_W, Sept 2023
The tour guides pictures of events and sharing stories from the dark history in the area. The dungeon is not well lit. You see only part of it, you don't go behind the big door that's leads into another area.
Would do it again!
Lynn_C, Sept 2023
The dungeon stories alone are so interesting! So much history! Great way to find out a little more about Charleston. Thoroughly enjoyed this tour!

We are so glad you had a wonderful time on tour with us! We hope to see you again the next time you are in town!

Going down into the dungeon. The photos show during the tour from past your participants was creepy.
Response from Host, Sept 2023
We are happy to hear that you had a wonderful time! Thank you for spending a portion of your trip with us!
More of a history tour than a ghost tour
Nitesh_P, Aug 2023
I thought this was a ghosts tour, but in reality it was more of a history tour of the city. Compared to previous tours taken in Charleston and other cities this was a huge let down.
History in the Dungeon
Blanca_T, Aug 2023
Amazing history very well told in such short time. Impressing especially the dungeon. Love the way everything was expressed and told.
Response from Host, Aug 2023
We are glad you had an amazing time Blanca, we hope to see you again in one of our tours!
Refund Tour $ if There’s a Severe Rain
Terri_A, Aug 2023
It was raining so bad that we ended the tour after the dungeon. Money should be refunded if it’s raining so bad that you can’t hear the tour guide over the sound of it.
Informative and spooky!
Chris_J, Aug 2023
Andrew was an incredible guide. His knowledge and passion for the city of Charleston is evident. He was attentive to all guests in the tour and made sure we all stuck together. It’s always refreshing to see people do what they love and it’s clear Andrew loves his hometown city. Thank you Andrew!
Response from Host, Aug 2023
We are so appreciative of your review and are happy that you had a wonderful time! Thank you so much for your comments!
Disappointed
Rachel_B, Aug 2023
I was disappointed this time. The tour was completely different than the tour we did a couple of months ago. No haunted pub, no blood alley, no warehouse story. I had told our friends about it but this was not the haunted tour we expected.
Good ghosts tour
Liz_C, Aug 2023
Fun tour. Dungeon was neat. Braxton/Bob did a great job. Wasn’t terribly scary but the stories were good.
Response from Host, Aug 2023
Your review has made our day! Thank you for your wonderful comments and we hope you enjoy the rest of your trip!
Very disappointing
Don_C, Aug 2023
Very disappointing tour. The guide was nice enough, but it wasn’t at all what we expected. During another trip to Charleston, we had gone on a highly informative and entertaining ghost tour with another company and had also toured the Provost dungeon during the day as part of the Exchange admission. This trip, we had one night in town with several other family members, so we decided to combine the previous experiences and go on this tour. It was a huge letdown. Instead of hearing about Charleston’s rich history and wide range of paranormal legends, this was mostly just a few pretty corny stories. The tour ended about 15-20 minutes before the scheduled end time, but we were honestly glad it was over. Hate to leave such a negative review because we love Charleston and ghost tours, in general, but this one just wasn’t for us at all. Maybe we caught them on an off night? On a positive note, the Bulldog office staff were very friendly and accommodating when we checked in.
Very good tour....
Victor_C, Aug 2023
Very good tour. Interesting stories, good amount of history, and more. Going into the dungeon was a great finale!
Response from Host, Aug 2023
We are so glad you had a wonderful time on tour with us! We hope to see you again the next time you are in town!

Sara the tour guide told ghost stories well, however that’s really all you got was story telling. A few minutes left of the tour it started raining and basically we were on our own to find our way back to our cars. The guide must have parked where we finished because she took off to avoid the rain.
Response from Host, Aug 2023
Thank you for sharing your feedback about the tour with Sara. We appreciate your kind words about her storytelling skills. However, we sincerely apologize for the disappointment you experienced at the end of the tour, where you were left to find your way back to your cars in the rain without assistance. We will address this matter with our guides to ensure a better experience for our future customers. Your input is invaluable to us, and we hope you give us another chance to show you a more enjoyable tour in the future.
Not as good as previous year's tours.
Catherine_H, July 2023
I have done this tour before but it had benn a few years. It was just ok, I remembered it being better than we had last night. They kept us waiting a long time before we started. The stories seemed a little flat. I was expecting more, a little disappointing.
Best ghost tour!
Rhonda_O, July 2023
This wasn’t our first ghost tour in Charleston but it was the best one we ever had!! Sarah was an amazing guide and story teller! Super fun for the whole family!

Amazing time
Daniel_C, July 2023
This was an awesome experience learning about the haunted places and our tour guide was awesome! Everyone has questions after the tour was over and she stayed and answered them.
Response from Host, July 2023
Sounds like you had a spooky time! Thank you so much for joining us for a night of spooky, Charleston history!

Steve_F, July 2023
A friend recommended a haunted tour while visiting family in Charleston. Very happy we did it. Great entertainment for Mr the history buffs in the group but equally as fun for the rest of us. Isn’t that spooky?!?
Response from Host, July 2023
We are so glad you had a wonderful time on tour with us Steve! We hope to see you again the next time you are in town!
Fun tour.

Karen_U, Dec 2022
The dungeon was neat to see at night. We felt like the tour was mostly walking as a group. There weren’t a lot of stories told. It seemed like a lot of money for what we received.
