Always a great time!

We have done this tour twice now and we enjoyed more even the second time. The value of information and experience you get is better than other city tours we have done in new places over the years. We are locals and I'm sure we will do this tour again. It's a great mix of some time to explore some cool buildings and amazing historical facts.

One of the best ever!

This was absolutely amazing! So much history and we actually went inside two of the most haunted locations in the city. Our tour guide Steve did an incredible job. I have been on haunted tours all over the world and this was one of the best!

Great Tour and Can't Wait To Go Again

Steve was an EXCELLENT guide! His story telling skills and knowledge of the history of Tampa was amazing. It really added to the tour being able to go inside of the buildings. My EMF meter went off several times to red walking around and especially in the theater. Steve also gave us advice on where to take videos and pictures. I would HIGHLY recommend this tour and would HIGHLY recommend Steve. It was a very enjoyable evening. Steve was also very thoughtful to make sure we knew how to get back to our cars and July 4th evening was a little crazy in Ybor. Thank You Steve!

The dead come to life through their stories

Steve is an excellent story teller, very knowledgeable in not just the local haunts but history in general. You can tell he has passionately memorized each space even down to how many steps each place has as you travel through mostly dark spaces and is sure to highlight walkways for safety. While each space is magnificent in its own right, Steve’s cadence really brings you back to that era like you’re hearing about the current gossip on the town. With the right touch of spooky, the nightlife noises around you only add to the imagery of what these spaces could’ve sounded like when they were in their prime and really add to the feeling of a lawless age for ybor. Being someone who has been to these spaces and heard mentions of the buildings history by others, it was a great in depth experience for anyone new to the area as well as locals looking for a great night through an old city’s haunted past.
