    Lily is friendly, perfectly-dressed for the occasion, and an excellent story-teller. She mixed early Boston history with modern sightings to paint very vivid pictures. Definitely recommend! It's my first time in Boston, and I feel like I got to know the town really well in just an hour. Thanks, Lily!

    This tour is a great mix of history and modern ghost stories and so enjoyable! . Tour guide Jarrod is an incredible storyteller, very animated, passionate and professional (despite several rude hecklers giving everyone a hard time- he handled it professionally and made sure everyone felt comfortable afterwards). Jarrod deserves a raise for delivering such an incredible tour in 95 degree heat in a costume 😅😅

    Jarrod was great! He had great stories and knew the history of the sites we visited. He did a great job of tying in the haunting origins to modern stories. The tour had an excellent pace with plenty of resting places. It covers lots of locations without making you walk too far, which is nice after a couple of days in the city. Jarrod was animated and engaged and had answers to all of the questions. This tour is a must and if you can get Jarrod!

    My husband and I recently did a tour with Jarrod as our guide. He was really into character, and completely had us sold he was from those times. His uniform was historically accurate and taught us a lot about Boston’s history. He made us feel as if we stepped out of a time machine. Also enjoyed hearing his ghost stories, legends, and myths. I encourage anyone who is into spooky/scary history to do your tour with Jarrod.

    Decided to take the latest tour (10pm) during a girls weekend to Boston. Best decision!! Our guide, Michael, was amazing! Personable, knowledgable, and attentive throughout the entire tour, Michael would crack jokes about the traffic noise or point out some other historic buildings in between stops. If you’re looking to hear some ghost stories while also learning about this historic city, I highly recommend booking with Boston Ghosts! Great way to end our weekend!

    I had such a great time. Jarrod, our tour guide, made the stories come to life with his expert knowledge of history combined with superb story telling. It was worth the money and I recommend it for anyone choosing a ghost tour in Boston.

    Jarrod gave a great tour today! His energy was strong and fun, he showed an extensive knowledge of the history and we enjoyed hearing the tales he had to share. The tour was a good pace and we all had a great experience! I would recommend these tours to everyone, tourists and visitors to Boston, and even locals to take these tours and learn more about the history of the area!

    Awesome tour! Jarrod was exceptional in his story telling! It definitely gave me some goosebumps! Our tour was just around 90 minutes and covered some of the most visited sites and some we would have never seen. At each stop we got some brief facts, some fun facts, and of course...spooky "facts"! If you're looking for something to do at night in Boston, check this tour out! Thanks for having us!

    Interesting your, cool to walk around downtown, at night, and hear about the ghostly history of Boston. Our guide, Lily, was great! She knew her stuff, interjected her love of the area and humor in her presentation. We had a fantastic fall weather night for this too.

    2022: Jarrod was our tour guide and he was excellent! He was very knowledgeable about each of the stops on the tour, and I appreciated his energy and the effort he put into making each story compelling. I took the tour with my kids (ages 14 and 12), and we had a very good time. The tour was a lot of fun and very interesting. Thanks again, Jarrod. Update: We returned to Boston for another trip during Thanksgiving weekend of 2023. This time, Amber was our guide. We had a blast and Amber was fantastic. I highly recommend Boston Ghosts! PS: The tour does not go inside the Omni Parker, but I have included the photo for those in the know!

    Boston ghost tour was interesting and had a lot of history. Lizzie Borden tour was my favorite as we got to go into the Inn where my husband and I had a first time paranormal experience. Overall made a great addition to our trip.

    We did a tour with Jarrod this past Sunday evening. Jarrod was an excellent guide and I learned so much about the history of Boston as well as hearing some eerie stories about the darker side of the cities past. I highly recommend a tour with Jarrod for anyone who wants a dive into the paranormal history of Boston.

    Lily was fantastic! I booked this last minute for myself, my husband and our 6 year old. We added on the EMT reader so she could "track the ghosts" as we walked. She had so much fun! Lots of cool stories, history and landmarks highlighted during the 60 minute tour. Highly recommend!

    This was a very interesting walking tour. My husband and I were in Boston for the day and decided since it’s October, let’s book a ghost tour so we booked just hours before the event and so glad we did. We had Jarrod as our guide and he was not only knowledgeable but very animated in his story telling which made the stories all the more interesting— plus he is so knowledgeable of the history of the buildings, the people and the time periods.

    My boyfriend Bruce and I really enjoyed Jarrod’s tour. He was great, an excellent story teller, and he was so patient with us. We arrived 40 minutes late due to traffic and parking, and he was very accommodating. Going as far as catching us up on what we missed. Would recommend to anyone 10/10 experience

    The Boston True Crime tour was excellent. Alexander our tour guide was friendly, personable, and dealt with the fact that some of our tour mates didn't show up on time expertly. He is a great speaker and story teller making eye contact with every member of the audience and speaking loudly and clearly. I would recommend this tour to anyone who enjoys true crime stories.

  • 5/5 Ana H. 2 years ago on Google
    I really enjoyed my ghost tour with Jarrod! He is incredibly knowledgeable about Boston and the scary stories of the town. I loved that Jarrod implemented both facts/histories of Boston as well as more modern ghost stories. This is an excellent tour and I highly recommend! On another note, there was a group of younger individuals bothering our tour group alongside another for a portion of our tour. They were screaming at both groups and Jarrod handled them very professionally EVEN when they threw food at him. It was wild and Jarrod was sure to ask everyone how we were after we were no longer bothered. Jarrod is a rockstar!

    Amber was amazing, fun and lively on a cold night. This ghost tour was a short walk to some great historical places. There was a mix up with our reservation and they immediately came up with a solution and made it right. Great customer service and I would definitely recommend them. Thank you!

    No access to graveyards but still a great tour! Our guide Lily was very enthusiastic and her stories were very really spooky. Happy I chose this tour!

    We really enjoyed the tour, Lucy was lovely and accommodating, making the tour fun, enjoyable, and informative. Good times and beverages. Thank you Lucy!

  • 5/5 Shirley J. 8 months ago on Google
    We had the best time! Lily is a great tour guide! It also didn’t hurt that we were the only ones on the tour. Lily is very engaging, very knowledgeable about the haunted history of Boston. No theatrics, no costumes, she just lets Boston at night tell the stories. We had a very enjoyable tour on a Monday night.

    Jake was a wonderful tour guide. He was warm, friendly, and had a delightfully witty sense of humor- not to mention he was a fantastic story teller! The stories were very interesting and there were a good mix of different kinds of stories ranging from eerie to bloodcurdling to just plain odd. I’d love to take another, in the Boston area or otherwise!

  • 5/5 Kimberly W. 2 years ago on Google
    My friend and I took this tour with Tag and he was so interactive with the group and you could tell this was something he loved to do! Very great stories! It was nice to learn the supernatural side of Boston! 😊

  • 5/5 Cathie C. 2 years ago on Google
    Michael did a great job, he was left to handle two groups but barely batted an eye at the overwhelming number of the groups! He gave detailed information with humor!

  • 5/5 Hector C. 2 years ago on Google
    Would definitely recommend to friends and family! Nice walk and very interesting stories and some history! Kai was our guide and did a great job. Walked at a nice slow pace, spoke nice and clear.

  • 4/5 Linda D. 2 years ago on Google
    We went to great places and the stories were really fun. The delivery from our guide felt very canned and rehearsed. While the stories were interesting, because of the storytelling, they weren’t very scary

  • 5/5 Ashley D. 2 years ago on Google
    We were the only two people on the tour tonight and Michael was attentive and a great tour guide. We learned so many facts about Boston and heard so many stories that piqued our interest. Anyone doing a pub tour in Boston would be lucky to have Michael as their tour guide!

  • 5/5 Victoria S. 2 years ago on Google
    Jarrod gave the best ghost tour I’ve been on by far. Super informative and interactive as well as quick witted and entertaining. Wonderfully rich in history and the paranormal aspects, it exceeded my expectations for the night. A whole new appreciation for the city of Boston!
