I paid online. I printed my tickets. I paid for a cab ride to the meeting place. Nobody showed from Fried Green Tours. Nobody answered either of their published phone numbers. I lost an evening of my vacation. Now I have to fight for a refund. More

My friend and I recently enjoyed a wonderful walking tour of Charleston as well as a tour of Magnolia Cemetary. Both of these were led by Ed Macy. We spent almost two hours with Ed enjoying his interesting stories of the historical area of this beautiful city. His love and knowledge of Charleston is very apparent. We never felt rushed... More

My boyfriend and I went on this tour over Labor Day weekend and were the only ones on it, so we were lucky enough to get a "private" tour! I asked Jordy--our tour guide--a ton of questions and he was extremely knowledgeable about answering each and every one of them. I cannot recommend this tour and this company enough! Our... More

We were booked for a 9:30 tour with Fried Green when they called to advise us that there would be children on the tour and to give us an opportunity to switch to the 7:00 tour. When we chose to do that we discovered that we would be the only 2 on the tour. Ed Macy, the guide, still gave... More

This was our first trip to Charleston and if I had to do over again, I would not take this tour. The guide was very sweet and talked alot but in general the ghost stories were just boring. Part of the problem was probably that my husband and I were the only ones on the tour this night, but the... More

April, our tour guide, did a wonderful job! There were only three of us on the tour so it felt like having a private guide rather than being on a cattle call (the way we felt on a Bull Dog Tour). This tour takes you, among other places, into the university and the old citadel. We did several ghost tours... More

This was my first haunted tour in Charleston, and I based my choice off of TripAdvisor. Bulldog was supposed to be excellent via pamphlets, but Fried Green rated higher on this site. Part of me wishes I had done a Bulldog one to gain a better comparison. April, our host, was as lovely as ever and did a great job... More

This tour was really wonderful and Ed Macy is an author of 3 Charleston ghost books and an excellent story teller. This does a different area then most of the other tours so if you enjoy this type of thing, going on 2 different tours might be fun if you have the time. We had a great time on this... More

April was a great story teller and tour guide. The stories are interesting and have historical background, so even non-ghost believers like me can appreciate the tale without feeling like its all baloney. This is about the only ghost tour I've been on that I think would be appropriate for families with children - granted, it is the only one... More

We went on the Haunted Tour of Charleston, and April was our guide. We have two boys - ages 9 and 5 - and April did a terrific job of including them and paying them some attention. We had a small group - only 6 of us in total - which was especially nice. You get to see some great... More
