Relaxing riding with a mule - She was funny and told us very interesting stories about the history of the city and about hauntings. The mule was so cute and the ride was comfortable.

We booked the haunted... - We booked the haunted carriage ride a few hours before our tour. The booking process was easy and user friendly . It was a great and entertaining experience. Our tour guide Charles was amazing. He provided an educational and entertaining tour. If you’re booking during the summer I’d recommend bringing a water bottle and/or fan to stay cool. We will be back!

Not on time and no big deal! - I would never recommend this. The directions had us at the wrong meeting location and then even when we found the correct meeting location the ride was 15 minutes late. The organizer completely brushed all of this off and acted like it was no big deal. The driver minimized the issue as well. We missed our dinner reservations.

Not as advertised - Unfortunately our tour guide was a little off point. We didn't get much in the way of haunted history. We would have loved to have a more enthusiastic guide
