We went for my friend's birthday to the Raleigh pub crawl and haunted adventure tour and had a great time. The tour was a very fun activity with stops at different bars and spooky locations. Our tour guide was the best!! Definitely recommend this tour. This was such a fun group activity.

Our host took us around Durham, telling us about the rich history. A few ghost stories after dark was very exciting. Great for a date night! It was a lovely evening!

Offensively bad and racist ghost tour. The tour claimed that enslaved people were hung at Moore Square - as someone very informed about slavery in Raleigh, this is not true. There is not a single reliable source on Raleigh history that makes this claim. To this company, Raleigh history may just be a prop to use as a cash grab, but for many of us it is our history and heritage. To exploit and distort the painful legacy of slavery, and intentionally misinform the public on such a sensitive issue just because they couldn't be bothered to learn about Raleigh's history is incredibly messed up.

My husband and two teenagers had an incredible experience on the tour on Saturday, July 22! We really enjoyed the stories and the history that Carolyn was able to share with us on the ghost walk through downtown Raleigh. She did a really great job explaining the sites and engaging the crowd. The only complaint that I have is that the tour went over the time stated (7:30-9:00pm). We had a babysitter who was expecting us home by 9:30, but instead we were home by 10:15 because our tour ended a little after 9:30. If we didn’t have someone waiting on us at home, it honestly wouldn’t have been a problem.

Overall, super fun and we enjoyed getting to see a different side of the Raleigh we know and love.

This tour was so much fun. We got a few spooky stories and introduced to some fun new bars we would have never found normally. Our tour guide had a great personality. I would definitely recommend the ghost tour and bar crawl. However, if you're looking for young party bar hopping tour, this isn't for you. This is more of an adult date night kind of thing. If you go, ask for Dave as your guide! He was seriously the best!!
