Overview

Not only are more images of ghosts captured on our tours than on any other tour in Charleston. We stand out as the ONLY Ghost Tour in Charleston, offering 10 original, well-researched, and spine-chilling stories on every tour! We're also the Only Ghost Tour using verification equipment to show you when ghosts are in your presence.

You might even see a ghost! That's right. Many of our guests have captured photographic evidence of ghosts—not just "orbs" but actual images of ghostly beings in their photos. If you do capture a ghost, and we post it, we'll send you an official Ghost Tour T-Shirt!

Unlike other tours that pack people in, we limit our Ghost Tours to just 15 participants. These tours often sell out, so join us for the best ghost tour in Charleston as we explore the dark side and search for spirits from the past... unless you're scared.

Note: The tour ends a few blocks from where it starts, but we will walk you back to the starting point.

What's Included

  • We bring Ghost Detecting equipment for you to use!
  • 10 Original Stories
  • A certified guide with a passion for the paranormal
  • Gratuities

City Boat Tours wants to make your searches as relevant as possible. That's why we offer many ways to help you find the right experiences for you.

On some pages, you can select how to sort the results we display and also use filter options to see only those search results that meet your chosen preferences. You'll see explanations of what those sort options mean when you select them.

If you see a Badge of Excellence label, the award is based on average review ratings, share of bookings with a review, and number of bookings through City Boat Tours over a 12-month period.

The importance of any one factor over any other in a sort order varies, and the balance is constantly being reviewed and adjusted. We're always updating our systems and testing new ways to refine and improve your results to make them as relevant as possible to meet your needs.
