Great experience!!!
EJ, our guide, was outstanding! A great sense of humor and quite knowledgeable about local history and hauntings. For a tip, watch closely when you enter the Round Robin Bar in The Willard Hotel. You just might see a figure that looks strikingly like Ulysses S. Grant seated in a corner enjoying his cigar.

Our guide was great .it was just my wife and I but he gave us alot of his energy and I could tell he made sure he was giving us an experience. He was very informative and I knew he dodnt just memorize a script as he was able to answer questions. I would certainly do it again just because of our experince with him.

Great Tour Guide
Great Tour Guide! He was prompt and made the tour engaging and fun. Even in a larger group, he made sure everyone could hear him and see what he was talking about. We had kids in the group and they really enjoyed the stories and tour as well.

Fun night
Me and my boyfriend are actually locals and figured we’d do something different on a Saturday evening for a double date. Dena was an incredible guide—funny, thoughtful, and knowledgeable. She was a great storyteller and also was able to connect the entire group together. So much so, we actually hung out at the last stop all together for a bit. Couldn’t say better things! Thanks for a wonderful night, Dena!!!

Get the Puerto Rican dude
Our tour guide was awesome. “The Puerto Rican” guy. Really made the stories come to life. If you’re considering a walking tour or any tour on a trip do it. They create the best memories in your head. His service animal was a great actor too.
That’s the Blair House in the picture. Google it if you’re uninformed and then take a ghost tour!

Walking tours do carve unforgettable moments into your memory and we are extremely grateful you chose to make one of them with us. We are happy that your guide and his scene-stealing service animal made quite the impression. Next time you are near the Blair House or other haunted spots, you know who to call!

The tour with Scott was so fun, he was so informative and knew the spots so well! He is quick and funny! It was so neat to inside places I'd never think I could and see where the stories come from. I'd absolutely do this tour again and Scott was a great guide!
