Reviews
This experience was fantastic and offered excellent value. It was quite affordable, and we thoroughly enjoyed our time learning about Madison.
It was truly fantastic. Our guide Lisa had a wealth of knowledge and was humorous and entertaining throughout. She shared some wonderful stories, and I definitely plan to do this again.
The narrative of Frank Lloyd Wright, along with the fascinating history and folklore associated with the buildings, made for an enjoyable experience. Maddie was an exceptional tour guide—knowledgeable, articulate, enthusiastic, engaging, and entertaining.
If you're in search of a fun, eerie, and historically rich ghost tour, this is the perfect choice. Our guide, Lisa, excelled in storytelling, bringing the “dead” to life while sharing insights about Madison and the wider Wisconsin region. It's an excellent opportunity to learn about the city and its spirits. I highly recommend it for older kids, particularly those in their pre-teen years and up, as the themes may not be appropriate for younger children. Lisa has a remarkable talent for engaging her audience and narrating a captivating tale.
Lisa delivered an engaging and impressive presentation filled with interesting facts, showcasing her commanding presence and humor. I highly recommend her as a guide—definitely a ten out of ten experience.
Our evening was delightful. Lisa, our guide, maintained our engagement throughout the tour. This was an enjoyable and unique way to explore Madison. She was considerate, ensuring that everyone could hear and fully participate. My mother uses a wheelchair, and the tour was entirely accessible; Lisa went above and beyond to check on us and ensure we reached everything. I would highly recommend this experience.
Maddie was fantastic; she provided numerous intriguing stories about Madison's history, including its hauntings and other supernatural occurrences.
Lisa, our guide, was charming and well-informed about the intriguing histories of downtown Madison.
There’s some walking involved along with a blend of history. While there are ghost stories, we didn't see any ghosts. Our guide, Mattie, was excellent.
It was an enjoyable and unique experience, but it lacked substantial ghost stories. We picked up some historical context and details about locations associated with sightings, but there was little about the origins of the ghosts or why they haunt those places. I was hoping for more depth.
