Sara_L, Apr 2024
It was 6/10. It was very buggy outside, which was not anything you can do. Overall again 6 out of 10.
Great experience!
Patti_G, Apr 2024
Our tour guide, Cass, was excellent and gave many ghost experiences to share. She was very knowledgeable about the many haunted aspects of Charleston.
Wonderful family ghost tour
Rachael_H, Apr 2024
Kathy was such a gracious and knowledgeable person! I loved learning so much about Charleston and its vast history. My teenage boys and parents loved it as well and Kathy even pegged my Dad as the life of the party and silly one. He enjoyed interacting with his grandsons and teasing them with some of the spookier moments. Great memories were created, and we can’t wait to do another tour next time!
Kathy was great!!! Would...

Kathy was great!!! Would definitely do the tour again. I wish we had time to look at other headstones.
Bulldog Walking Ghost Tour
Francis_S, Apr 2024
Fun tour. Our guide, Katie, was full of history and facts, and presented them with a dramatic flair.
Really fun
Jessi_S, Apr 2024
The tour guide was very friendly. He infused some history into the tour. Had plenty of time for photos.
Great times!
John_V, Apr 2024
It was so cool to hear the other side of the history to the city. Earlier that day we walked the same tour with the pretty details it was great to get to the darker side.
Underwhelmed
AD_B, Mar 2024
It was neat to enter the graveyards; however, outside of that the tour was underwhelming at best. Our guide seemed very nervous and unsure of what she was talking about.
Ghost tour, Cemetery and Full Moon!
Carol_T, Mar 2024
Walking through the cemetery with a full moon! Great fun! Our tour guide was great and answered all our questions and suggested other historical sites to visit in the daytime.
Ghost Tour Bore
Michel_R, Mar 2024
I have done multiple ghost tours in several cities and enjoyed the experience. This tour was boring. Our tour guide walked too fast and was very short with the ghost stories. We were very disappointed.
Highly recommended
Samantha_S, Mar 2024
Would strongly encourage folks to do this tour. Great for kids and adults alike. Just enough spook for everyone, entertaining and historical.
It was neat to hear about...
Kim_F, Mar 2024
It was neat to hear about the history. Not scary at all. Our guide was awesome and very knowledgeable of all the history.
Perfect balance of history, storytelling and spooky
ELIZABETH_M, Mar 2024
The visit in the cemetary and the accompanying stories was the highlight for me. The cemetary itself was haunting and beautiful and the stories of the people buried there was fascinating
Great time
Dianna_A, Mar 2024
We had a great time everyone needs to do this tour. we needed to schedule a different time and they really work with you and I love the lady that walked us through the tour. She was awesome.
Our tour guide, Angie,...
Cynthia_I, Feb 2024
Our tour guide, Angie, grew up in the area and was very authentic and knowledgeable. By using Bulldog tours, it was nice to have access to get into the cemetery that some of the other tours don’t have access to.
Nice tour a must do
Karen_F, Feb 2024
Excellent tour - worth the trip good story great time very interesting and informative Bulldog was great - Ashley
Just Enough Intrigue
Sherry_R, Jan 2024
Tour guide was lively and interesting. She kept the tour moving. Being in a graveyard added to the fun. A good way to see/hear the ghost stories of Charleston.
Great tour
Carrie_M, Nov 2023
Exclusive access to the graveyard was a nice touch. Entertaining and knowledgable guide, Sarah, answered all of our questions.
Worth doing
Suzanne_K, Nov 2023
Tour guide was a little bit too preachy about her personal views but the tour overall was great. Would recommend.
Nice tour great history
Clyde_S, Nov 2023
Liked the history and interesting facts about the city including the spooky parts. The group we were with were fun to be with and that is mostly due to Yates’ rapid fire tour presentation. Really well done.
