Hot but fun - Monk did a great job story telling and providing interesting history. This was one of the few tours available in this heat so we are glad he was willing to work and entertain us.

This was a fun, adventurous guided tour that gave us insight to the Wild West! We learned new, old, & haunted facts - We ended up having a 2:1 tour with Monk, we learned a lot of information about Tucson! It was also nice of him to give us food Texas for after the tour as well.

Best Tour, Ever! - Where do I start? Our guide,Sully, called me shortly after the arrival time to check in with me.. I was lost ( not too far off,after all) and couldn’t find the meeting spot. I told him where I was and he guided me to where I needed to go. When we met him he called my kids by name which immediately set them at ease. The tour was fun, educational, and thoughtful with lots of ghost stories and history, as well as stories of the incredible people who were a part of Tucson many years ago. My grandson couldn’t stop talking about it!! Thank you Sully from the bottom of my heart!

Very informative and... - Very informative and guide was very respectful and friendly. Was thinking there would be more stories of hauntings; most of the stories were more of historical events in Tucson. Even so it was very enjoyable.

Unfortunate third party miscommunication - We had a bit of a hiccup with this experience as we were sent an incorrect address by a THIRD PARTY as to where to meet our guide and by the time we got it all figured out as to where we were supposed to be, it was too late for our tour. We were very disappointed because we were aware that we missed out on an AMAZING experience. I want to be clear that the guide we were assigned to did everything he could to help us that night and even worked to get me a refund since we didn’t get to enjoy the show. This is why I’m submitting a 5-star review as our guide demonstrated that their company cares very much about their customers and works hard to deliver a great experience! I also want to make it clear that it was a third party who sent us the wrong address, not the Ghost Tours company itself. You meet at the Hotel Congress in Tucson, NOT IN FRONT OF THE PIMA COUNTY COURTHOUSE like we were told. Next time we go to Tucson, we’re booking this again and we’ll be much more careful to book it on the Ghost Tours website so that we get more reliable information.

Long tour - Been an a few of these tours and usually they keep you moving and interested. The guide was super nice but the tour seemed to drag a little and not much ghost as more of a history tour of the city
