Great ghost tour in the VillagetammydK6087YH
We have been to NYC many times but had never done a ghost tour there. Kat did an exceptional job. We started in the village with many historical buildings and a discussion about the previous tenants (who have never left). A nice touch was having pictures of the buildings from the past so you got a real feel for the history. We ended in NYU area. The tour was the an easy walk that lasted just over 2 hours. I would highly recommend booking a tour through I’m Walkin’ Here Tours.
Great time and great stories!606katlinh
We had a wonderful time! Kat was funny, informative, and really nice. She did really well at integrating the spooky feeling into the history of the city, while handling the city's tragedies with respect and care. She also kept us at a good pace and no minute was wasted, nor did I feel like the tour was dragging.
Come for the name stay for the history638alainam
