I booked a tour for October 16th and spent thirty minutes walking around trying to find the tour group. I used Google Maps on my phone, and when I reached the address listed on my ticket, no one was there. The tour guide finally called me, but wasn't able to offer much assistance. When I called the phone number that I used to purchase the ticket, the representative argued with me about the address and said I could send an email to management and request a refund. DO BETTER with your meeting point instructions. This was a big disappointment for me since I traveled across the country to visit San Jose and was looking forward to an evening of haunted history. Eventually, I gave up and went back to my hotel after missing most of the tour and being unable to find the meeting point. A REFUND should be honored!

The tour was very short. This is the worst ghost tour i have done. We had to pay $50 for two people and the guide forgot some of the characters and incidents which did not make the tour an interesting experience. Not worth the money!

Jesse was an amazing tour guide! Very informative and had some really funny anecdotes. There was so much history I hadn't known about San Jose, that he really brought to life. I highly recommend this tour!
