The ghost tour in San Jose, CA, was an enjoyable experience. Lexi, our guide, was cheerful and ready to respond to all our inquiries. Now, I will be more conscious of the potential ghosts in certain buildings I visit!
I had an incredible experience on this tour. Our guide was wonderful, and I gained so much knowledge. I highly suggest it, especially for the Halloween season.
The tour was enjoyable. The hotel where we stayed was actually haunted and featured on the ghost tour. It was family-friendly, although there was quite a bit of walking involved. We gained plenty of insights into San Jose's history and culture.
The experience was enjoyable overall, but I was disappointed that we didn't visit the Winchester Mansion, which had been advertised as part of the tour. I had been looking forward to seeing it.
Jesse was an outstanding tour guide, providing plenty of information along with some very amusing stories. He shared a wealth of history about San Jose that I was previously unaware of, making it truly engaging. I strongly recommend this tour.
The tour was extremely brief and the most disappointing ghost tour I’ve experienced. We paid $50 for two people, but the guide overlooked important characters and events, making it a lackluster experience. It wasn't worth the cost.
Sydney provided an incredible experience! She shared fascinating stories that I was unaware of and was very friendly and knowledgeable throughout the tour.
I reserved a tour for October 16th and wasted thirty minutes searching for the group. Despite using Google Maps and arriving at the address on my ticket, there was no one there. The guide eventually called but couldn't help much. When I reached out to the number I used to buy the ticket, the representative argued about the location and suggested I email management for a refund. The lack of clear meeting point instructions was very disappointing, especially since I traveled a long way to San Jose for this haunted history tour. I ended up going back to my hotel after missing most of the tour. A refund should be provided.
I chose to go on this tour in San Jose. It was just all right. I've participated in better tours, and the guide didn't appear to be very engaged with her own experiences or the tour overall.
This experience offered an engaging combination of local history, chilling legends, and an ideal level of suspense, incorporating true crime, tales from the old downtown, and the more sinister aspects of San Jose's history. The narratives surrounding historic structures and the city's hidden spots truly enhanced the overall experience. It was both spooky and enjoyable, featuring a supernatural element.
