O
Definite go!
Great fun for family. Guide was informative and personable. I saw things I had not seen in the 40 years I have been visiting Galveston!
S
Spooky fun!
We went on the dolphin tour and saw there was a haunted tour, so obviously has to do that one as well. Was worth every penny we had an amazing pirate host Lucio here made it so much fun gave so much history. Although I must say the best part was when Phillipe scared the crap out of him 😉. And captain Parker was again fantastic captain!
G
Great time
Enjoyable experience for all. I truly liked the boat ride.
C
Would go again and bring other friends along
Definitely liked the history and ghost stories. I'm a bit of a skeptic when it comes to using spirit box/talker apps. But over all, it was a fun experience.

Great experience riding the boat at night with other passengers seeking the same adventure as you! CAPTAIN Z WAS AMAZING ALONGSIDE HIS INSTRUCTOR!
M
Incredibly fun experience!
Lucio and Captain Mark gave us a wonderful experience! Our guide was a great storyteller and just an all-around fun person, as was our captain. The stories were engaging and our entire boat load of only 10 people was a lot of fun. Will definitely do this again in the future!
