First off I will say that Brendan my tour guide, was extremely knowledgeable not only about the known haunted sites but other places that were not on the tour. He is so friendly and patient with me asking as many questions as I could, Being I was the only person on the 10:30 night tour it felt much more personal. If there was an outline that was supposed to be followed, he knocked it out of the park, I had no idea. Even though I experienced the city last night I would absolutely comeback for another tour for the only reason would be Brendan. Brendan, thank you again for being my tour guide, I hope everyone who decides to take this tour gets to experience the man the myth the legend known as BRENDAN!!!
This review is AMAZING! Thank you so much, Travis! We’re thrilled Brendan made your Portland late-night tour one you’ll remember. His incredible local knowledge, friendly personality, and willingness to dive into every question really make him special, and we’re so glad you got to experience that firsthand. “The man, the myth, the legend” is definitely a title he’ll have to live up to now! We’ll make sure Brendan sees your kind words, and we’d absolutely love to have you back for another haunted Portland adventure!
So. Much. Fun. Our family goes on ghost tours in all the big city’s we visit, and this was one of the best so far. Brendon was an absolutely awesome guide and totally made the whole experience.
Thank you for the wonderful review, Adah! We're thrilled your family had such a great time with Brendon. It's extra special to hear this from seasoned ghost-tour travelers who seek out haunted history wherever they go! We're so glad Portland delivered, and we'll definitely let Brendon know how much you enjoyed his tour. Hope your next spooky adventure is just as amazing!
We did the 10:30 pm tour and Brendan was our guide. He was 10/10. You could tell he loves his job- fun and enthusiastic. Great story-teller. Unfortunately having to navigate around homeless people the entire tour distracted from the experience. We constantly had to be aware of who was walking towards us or screaming at each other behind us. There were some who had dogs aggressively barking at passersby. I understand the tour is in the old town area because of the history there but the city really needs to get a grasp on the homeless situation in that area. The people in that area eem to be accustomed to it but for someone from out of town, it's pretty shocking. The entirety of people we crossed paths with were drugged out and in bad shape. Some approached asking for money and others were arguing or shouting. Didn't feel safe at all and we were constantly checking to see who was walking behind us. I hate to leave a bad review because Brendan was such a great guy but feel like other people should know that safety is a concern. I could tell he was trying to route us around the worst of it. I suggest taking the earlier tour and be in a bigger group and I suggest carrying pepper spray at the very least.
Thank you for sharing both the positives and the concerns from your experience, Laura. We’re delighted to hear Brendan was friendly, enthusiastic, and an excellent storyteller. We also understand why the situations you encountered throughout the evening affected your sense of comfort and took away from the tour. We appreciate you recognizing his efforts to navigate the group around those areas. Please email your booking ID to guestrelations@usghostadventures.com, and we’ll share your feedback with our managers so they can review your concerns and work toward a resolution.
There was a lot happening around the streets of Portland on the night of our tour. Our guide was great at staying aware of the situations and tailoring her tour to avoid some of the spots that might have been uncomfortable. Her easy-going conversation and whole vibe was perfectly Portland and we had a lot of fun

The homicide stories you learn about this tour are tragic and interesting. The tour guide did a great job describing numerology and masonry lore.

This was an awesome experience all around. Compliments to the host (I am so bad with names, sorry). She was phenomenal. Easy to listen to, knowledgeable of the subjects, and her presentation added that extra element these types of tours crave. The tour itself is a great opportunity to get some steps in and learn some macabre history about Portland, along with some normal fun facts. My partner and I both enjoy the macabre and both enjoyed ourselves. It is worth noting, we felt safe during the entire experience. Not too late at night, we stayed in well lit area's, and stopped in spots with light foot traffic out in public and open areas. As a nice bonus, you'll have an opportunity to grab a hot coffee before the tour starts if it's a bit cooler outside.
