Spooooooky Catalina - It was our first time to Catalina Island and since it was my birthday, I made everyone in my party go on this ghost tour with me. It was so cool to walk around the main part of the island while learning the history and get some readings on the EMF readers! Our guide Oliver was so nice and cool. Definitely worth it for people who have never been to Catalina Island and want a guided tour with a spooky twist.

Ghostly Tales of Avalon! - Fun way to explore the haunted hot spots of Avalon! Our guide shared his knowledge & stories from the locals and encouraged our party of four to shate ours. Definitely got chills listening as we walked around and tried out EMF meters. Great evening, and we came back with cool stories to share with other travelers at our hotel. Definitely recommend! 👻💀👻

Interesting Night Walkabout! - Lots of history of Avalon, some active EMF spots, headphones a great addition to not miss any of the stories if not in earshot of tour guide. John was great!

One of the best ghost tours we've had - John was our guide and we commented that 1+ hours went quickly. Luckily we were the only ones on the tour which made it personal, it was like spending time with an old friend. We were able to share stories and experiences. We enjoyed the history of Avalon and the Island, learning many new things.

Fun experience - Jess was great, very knowledgeable and genuine. We had a couple of drunk folks on the tour that were pretty annoying, but that's not her fault.
