My schedule didn’t allow me to take a ghost tour in the evening but I was very interested in learning the stories anyway. WalknTours to the rescue. I took the tour during the day and it was great. Another bonus of a daytime tour was that the Central Burying Ground is open during daylight hours so I was able to enter (not possible on an evening tour). I actually did the tour back-to-back with the Underground Railroad tour so it made for a fun and educational day around Boston. Another great thing about the tour is you can “relisten” to it after the tour is over. I couldn’t remember one fact that was told at the Athenaeum, so a quick “replay” refreshed my memory. I’ll look for WalknTours in other cities when I travel.
