William is really informative, I appreciated the history and photos to back it up. We could tell he took his time learning the history.

Guide was fun and shared a ton of local spooky lore. Highly recommend for the entire family. Make sure to wear comfy shoes for walking.

The tour was awful. Our guide started late and he basically just told stories that weren’t scary or really had much to do with anything. We left after 15 minutes very disappointed we’re frustrated that we wasted our time to do that. I hope the company refunds are money.

It was very informative of some history of downtown Austin. We loved that. The stories she told were very good as if you could almost imagine little Samantha on the stairway of the Driscoll. My daughter said she felt a cold sensation on the back of her leg. She kept looking for a fan or something but nothing was there. It would have been very good to have experienced more paranormal activity. Recommend this tour for sure.

Tyler was absolutely amazing, storytelling on an amazing level. The tour was on another level and hope to tour again with someone just like Tyler
