The history was interesting to learn about. I was disappointed that we only got to look at the outside of the buildings.
Fun and informative.

When he was talking about one of empty houses a light that was on flicked low as he talked about a spirit that didn’t like the changes a contractor was making on the house. Not off. Just low. As if the electricity was being strained. It was creepy.

The history of Normandy Inn, the Browns family home, as well as the history of the island itself...my 13 y/o recommended this tour after seeing it online...although hesitant, I added it to her list of things she wanted to do before returning to school and there'sno regrets...

Good tour and guide. Even kept my teens’ attention for the 1.5 hrs. Large crowd though, we counted 45 people. The guide managed it well but if looking for a more intimate size, try on a weekday or do a different outfit.
Response from Host , Jul 2022
Sorry about the size of the crowd. Unfortunately the additional tour guide scheduled sprained her ankle. But I'm glad that you had a good time and thank you for the five stars. Please check out our reviews and our competitors reviews before you book a tour. You'll see we are the highest rated on TripAdvisor and on Google. For good reason. Don't be disappointed or intimidated by the size of the crowd. you'll still have a awesome adventure.
Informative and fun

Learning the history of homes and the Great Storm was great. I have been coming here for fifty five years and still learned a few more things about the tragic hurricane of 1900!!
Fun Family Time

We had a great time! This was a tour requested by my 11 and 9 year old. They loved hearing Jack tell the stories and enjoyed the limericks he had to go with them. Fun time all in all.
Exceptional, Historical and Haunting!

Wonderful tour filled with history and spooky stories! Jack was our tour guide and his singing and mandolin playing lightened up the atmosphere after his intense storytelling! Jack was an exceptional tour guide!

I brought my daughter and 5 of her friends to Galveston for a 3 day getaway. We did our ghost tour on Thursday night at 8! There was another at 10. Noel was our tour guide and she was awesome. Absolutely loved her energy and enthusiasm! You can certainly tell she absolutely loves this island and all of its history. She was very informative and awesome! She kept my group of 14 year olds very involved and they really loved it. The 90 minute flew right by and we definitely left wanting more! Can’t wait to take a different tour next time and dig deeper into Galveston’s history! Thanks again for a time well had! Until next time….

My mom caught a ghost on camera. The homes were beautiful and the guide had an extensive knowledge of the homes and the area. It was very fascinating. I wouldn’t recommend younger kids, though. The ones we had seemed pretty bored.
Jack makes this tour outstanding!!!

Jack was outstanding!! I use a electric wheel chair and as we began the tour. Jack was great at directing me to safe areas and ensuring I had a great view. He was very clear to understand and new his history very well. His ballads were so funny and had everyone laughing. If you go to Galveston you must do the tour with Jack.

We perform checks on reviews
You can only submit a review or rating of an experience to Viator if you were the person who made the booking through Viator. Before publication, each review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information for each of the following criteria: who, what, how, and when. If the system detects something that contradicts our publication criteria, the review is not published. When the system detects a problem with a review, it may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site. In some cases, we will also send you an email asking you to validate your review before it is published. All you need to do is click on the link provided in the email. After publication, our team checks each review reported to it as not meeting our publication criteria. Tripadvisor reviews that appear on the Viator site are subject to the same checks and moderation processes as set out above. It is not necessary to have booked an experience through Viator (or Tripadvisor) to submit a review of an experience to the Tripadvisor site.
