“Highly recommend the Ghost Tour”

By UnaFee (a TripAdvisor Member) on January 4, 2014

I went on this tour last Saturday night 11/2/13. I had purchased the tickets on Amazon Local (2 for $25). I loved it. The tour guide Sean was great, he waited until everyone was together before speaking to the group. The group was quite large so he gave us trivia questions along the way to keep the group together. Along with hearing about the ghosts inhabiting certain buildings he pointed out many other points of interest along the way including the "Friends" building which I was particularly excited about. I know I will be taking trips back to a few of the haunteds bars along the route to try to experience a ghost 1st hand.
Great tour, great guide and interesting facts and history along the way. I highly recommend this. There is a lot of walking involved so do wear comfortable shoes.

“New York Ghost Walk - Fantastic!”

By drmike99 (a TripAdvisor) on January 4, 2014

Just did the New York Ghost Walk tour offered by Great New York Tours and had a fantastic time. Would highly recommend this to both visitors to New York as well as to locals interested in the history of New York (and/or ghosts!). Jackie our tour guide was very interesting and knowledgeable about the ghoulish stories behind the haunted buildings and areas of the neighborhood. She also did a nice job of engaging with all of the folks on the tour, which included a nice mix of couples, families and seniors. The tour itself starts in Washington Square park and lasts approximately 2 hours. So many interesting stories combined with a leisurely walking tour of some of the most beautiful and historic neighborhoods! Will definitely do this again with friends.

“Great NY Tours Greenwich Village Ghost Tour”

By Allan P (a TripAdvisor Member) on March 4, 2014

Even though it was frigid out we all had a fascinating time on the Great NY Tours Greenwich Village Ghost Tour. I thought I know NYC and the Village quite well but I learned more than a few things during this tour. Interwoven in the tour were quizzes on NYC history and pop culture. Marcy was our guide and she did a fine job keeping us entertained and informed - and keeping our minds off of the very low temps. We visited the Edgar Allan Poe home, the hanging tree in Washington Square Park and other points of interest related to the lives of Alexander Hamilton, Aaron Burr, Jimmy Walker among many others. Recommended........

“New York Ghost Walk”

By ksong777 (a TripAdvisor Member) on April 4, 2013

Had such an amazing time with ALEX, our tour guide, or as a male stranger walking by said (I'm paraphrasing) "THE MOST COOLEST LOOKING TOUR GUIDE EVER". I would've said "THE DREAMIEST LOOKING TOUR GUIDE EVER". His height, European accent, and laid back charisma made this New Yorker enjoy and learn a few things about her city. Very informative on the history and little tidbits about the East Village to Greenwich Village you would never have known about have you not been on this walking tour. The 2 hours flew by and with that the BEST GHOST WALK EVER!
