Old Louisville Ghost Tour recomendado por The New York Times en 4th y Ormsby
Descripción
¡Como se ve en MURDER IN GLITTERBALL CITY de HBO! Las impresionantes mansiones victorianas y los residentes peculiares se han ganado la atención nacional para Old Louisville, donde los barones bourbon, la realeza del hipódromo y los titanes del tabaco se establecieron en el siglo XVIII. Esta caminata narrada proviene de libros de David Dominé, quien a menudo guía a los propios grupos. Las historias involucran experiencias personales y leyendas del vecindario, así como la historia en el corazón de A DARK ROOM IN GLITTER BALL CITY, ¡las memorias de crímenes reales que inspiraron la serie de HBO! Especializados en "El barrio más encantado de Estados Unidos", partimos de la esquina de Fourth y Ormsby, en el borde de transición del vecindario. Si te gusta la hermosa arquitectura y la historia espeluznante, este es el tour para ti! Si no te gusta un barrio diverso y emergente, o no puedes pasar 2 horas sin un baño, ¡esto no es para ti! The New York Times recomienda nuestros tours como la primera cosa que hacer durante las "36 horas en Louisville" de un visitante. Propiedad y explotación locales desde 2004.

Itinerario
Recomendado por The New York Times, Louisville Historic Tours se ha especializado en caminatas guiadas por el "Barrio más embrujado de Estados Unidos" desde 2004. Una vez hogar de barones de bourbon, realeza de carreras y titanes de tabaco, este vecindario de transición tiene una gran riqueza de fantasmas que atrae aficionados sobrenaturales de todo el mundo. Centrado en el Parque Central diseñado por Olmsted y el encantador enclave residencial de St. James Court, este distrito histórico de 40 cuadras está repleto de grandeza de la Edad Dorada y cientos de mansiones victorianas espeluznantes. El autor más vendido, David Dominé, adora mostrar el vecindario y compartir historias sobre sus casas supuestamente embrujadas favoritas. ¡Ven a ver de qué se trata todo este zumbido! NOTA IMPORTANTE: En nuestros recorridos, es posible que vea cosas que vería en cualquier ciudad más grande de los Estados Unidos; Esto incluye a personas sin hogar, mendigos u otras personas que no se parecen a usted. Si no te gusta un vecindario diverso, este no es el tour para ti.
Terminada en 1905, la Mansión Ferguson solo vio a una familia residir allí en su capacidad prevista. En la década de 1920, se convirtió en una funeraria conocida y permaneció como tal hasta la década de 1980, cuando "The Filson" trasladó su sede allí. Póngase en contacto con su recepción para averiguar cómo entrar.
Construido en la década de 1890, el "Castillo de Conrad" es una impresionante mansión románica de piedra caliza de estilo Richardson que tipifica la Edad Dorada de Kentucky. Si se inscribe en uno de sus recorridos (¡muy recomendable!), Tenga cuidado: puede encontrarse con un fantasma, o cinco.
Diseñado por el mismo genio detrás del famoso Central Park de la ciudad de Nueva York, este espacio verde de 14 acres es el corazón del Viejo Louisville. Por la noche, puede ser algo espeluznante.
Escuche la historia de por qué este árbol es tan retorcido y retorcido, y por qué la gente lo adorna con baratijas, cuentas y amuletos de buena suerte.

Angelique is a gifted story teller and local expert on paranormal. If only it hadn’t been so incredible hot we would have loved it even more. She made us want to learn even more and when we returned to our hotel we researched more of her tales!
Angelique was a great tour guide. She is a local resident, knows the lore and history, and has 1st hand experience that she shares. I wish we could have gone in to some of the houses but as we learned on tour, that only happens once a year.
Esas stroll trough old Louisville with many ghosts but not much history. Houses in that area are beautiful, thus the tour is worth it for ghost stories and architecture
The tour was really fun. The guide had great stories about Old Louisville. The walk was easy pace and went by fast.
Lots of good local history, beautiful houses to look at. We went in July and the gardens of Old Louisville were awesome. The tour guide, Angelique, was very friendly and knowledgeable and had a cool vibe. The Witches Tree was a very cool part of Louisville lore that I did not know. So I learned something. The tour itself is too long. The tour is NOT disability or mobility friendly, so keep that in mind if you have any type of mobility issue. And the guide will not wait for you to catch up, so if you have mobility issues you will miss some of the stories. It was fun walking with other travelers.
Thank you for joining Angelique in Old Louisville! Yes, as stated in the tour description, this is a walking tour and is not recommended for people with mobility issues.
Fascinating information shared in such colorful and engaging fashion! Angelique is a natural in this role ! Loved her enthusiasm & energy!
Thanks so much! We're thrilled to hear you had such a good with Angelique in Old Louisville!
After watching the HBO Original documentary Murder in Glitterball City, I wanted to see more of Old Louisville for myself, and this tour absolutely delivered. One of the biggest advantages is the flexibility. Unlike most walking tours that leave at one or two fixed times, this is a private tour that can be scheduled almost anytime between 8:00 AM and 10:00 PM, seven days a week. That made planning around the rest of our Louisville trip incredibly easy. The value is outstanding. It's just $150 total for up to five people, so if you have a group of five, that's only $30 per person for a completely private experience. Even better, you can add more people (up to 15 total), bringing the cost down to only $16 per person—still with your own private guide. That's hard to beat. And if you want to splurge and have a private tour just for yourself and/or your significant other or friend, it's still a bargain. Our guide was knowledgeable, engaging, and clearly passionate about Old Louisville's history, architecture, and ghost stories. We loved being able to ask questions, linger where we wanted, and tailor the experience to our interests—something you simply can't do on a large group tour. Added bonus? We ran into David Dominé, the author whose book inspired the HBO show, along the way and he stopped and chatted and answered the many questions we had! Whether you're interested in the HBO documentary, true crime, Victorian architecture, Louisville history, or just want a fascinating walk through one of America's most beautiful historic neighborhoods, I can't recommend this tour highly enough. If you're looking for a private experience with exceptional flexibility and value, this is
Thank you for the wonderful review! It was our pleasure showing you around Old Louisville, and so glad you got to spend some time with David.
This was my favorite part of our trip! Firstly, the tour guide Angelique is the most amazing person I've met. Her knowledge of the area and the history, her beautiful personality, and her overall passion shine through! The architecture and ambience of the area are breathtaking. The storytelling is detailed and captivating. It is truly worth your visit!!! Hearing thebstories from a local even add more flare! We will definitely be booking with her in the future.
Thank you! Angelique is a great and passionate guide and we're glad you picked up on that during your time in Old Louisville!
Fantastic tour guided by the wonderful Angelique! My last evening in Louisville after traveling to attend a wedding, I wanted to play tourist and get some steps in. I picked the right tour. Angelique was fantastic at telling all the stories of Old Louisville. Definitely peaked my interest on the history of the city and I’ll be scoping out the Mirrorball documentary now.
Thank you so much for joining Angelique! We love that you loved Old Louisville!
Our family has participated in many ghost tours over the years, and this one ranks among the very best. Angelique was incredibly kind and an exceptional storyteller. We learned so much about the history of old Louisville and the spirits said to haunt its streets and buildings. The tour was engaging, informative, and entertaining from start to finish. We would absolutely do it again and highly recommend it to anyone visiting Louisville!
Thanks so much for the nice recommendation! We're happy to hear you enjoyed your time with Angelique in Old Louisville!
