Haunted Boston Ghost Tours — Local services in Boston

I booked this tour with my dad as we had never been to Boston before and I wanted to get a better lay of the city before spending the week there. He had never done a ghost tour before but this is probably the fifth one I’ve done or so. For only $21/person, I would say this tour is well-worth the price, especially if you’ve never been to Boston before or just aren’t familiar with Boston history. I am not a fan of super gimmicky tours where the guides try to be too theatric or the tour has costumed actors so this tour was perfect for me. Our tour guide, Zach, did wear black and have a battery powered lantern which was just enough and he was such an engaging storyteller. You could tell he was passionate about the tours he gives and has so much historical knowledge of the area, which is what a lot of the tour was. The tales had a spooky flair, of course, by explaining the circumstances around which many of the ghost sightings in Boston could result from. I feel like we also got some historical knowledge that we wouldn’t have gotten otherwise. The tour group itself was a nice mix of different age groups, probably about 15 people or so. Since I was pregnant, I kept good company with the older adults and my dad who walked a bit slower but there were lots of breaks after walking and most of the walk was fairly flat. We even finished the tour outside the Omni Parker House Hotel, home of the Boston cream pie, and my dad and I had a great time going inside and exploring. Plus, we each got a piece of pie and my dad got a Boston cream pie martini. Overall, a wonderful tour and exactly what I was hoping...

This is a great tour. No cheesy gimmicks, costumes, or jump scares. Darren was our guide and I couldn't have asked for a better one. I have gone on multiple haunted tours in multiple states, Darren was by far the best I've seen. His stories were all based in fact, no embellishments or exaggerations, just creepy, true stories. The historical aspect was awesome and very informative. Darren is considerate of the entire group, he stops to speak, so everyone can hear, he stops speaking whenever traffic, planes, or whatever else makes loud noises, so everyone can hear. Not to mention this tour is much smaller groups with much mor affordable tickets than "the other guys". A+ would recommend to anyone visiting or even...

Very good tour! Katie was a great story teller and kept everyone engaged and intrigued as we walked. She is a wonderful speaker and has a fun sense of humor that brought quite a few giggles and belly laughs out of everyone. When she said we were heading to our last stop, I couldn't believe nearly an hour and a half had gone by! I personally didn't see or feel any ghostly presence, for those of you worried this will be too scary, rest assured it will not be. Thank you for taking us around Boston and telling us about the ghouly, gross, and grizzly history of this wonderful...
