Just got back from our private tour with Craig! It was excellent. Craig is a passionate storyteller who clearly cares for his craft and thoroughly enjoys sharing stories of the strange, spooky and surreal happenings around Albuquerque’s old town. As a horror wroter and fan, I was especially impressed with Craig’s sense of timing and knack for detail. His stories never go overboard, and are well-built to give you a real sense of unease. Worth noting is that my group was three adults who all work in the entertainment industry - Craig adapted to our humor and taste quickly, and was courteous to check on any boundaries we had regarding taste and content. Of course, we were all in, but I appreciated that he did this. I myself am an experienced tour guide, having worked for years in Chicago with multiple companies. Craig was considerate and alert, always sure to point out anything we might trip on or walk into along the dark paths of his tour. Beyond Craig, the experience was exceptional. The location is easy to find, and they have water and restrooms available to guests at the top of the route. The route itself is an easy stroll around old town - no stairs, no tight alleyways. This is a well planned tour that is certainly accessible and accommodating to all. I could not recommend it more, and will certainly be returning!

One of the attractions my family always does on any trip is the local haunted history tour. We were very excited to join this tour for our first trip to Albuquerque. Misty and Edwin did not disappoint us at all. The tour is a short walk around Old Town in which not only will you hear some stories about some of the potential paranormal occurrences at various locations but learn some very interesting history of Albuquerque. I will say that our experience was rather unique in that we were the only participants on the tour when we took it. So your results may vary. Misty is an incredible storyteller that keeps you engaged as she gives you the details. I think even more interesting is that in a few of the instances she has had first hand encounters - bringing the stories to another level. Along the way the audience is given an opportunity to listen to some EVP recordings that were captured at some of the locations. To me this was extremely unique and interesting. All and all I throughly enjoyed our evening with Misty and Edwin and highly recommend this tour to paranormal adventure seekers.

Went on a ghost tour and it was a lot of fun! Was 105 minutes long. Nothing paranormal happened on the tour but it was really fun and interesting learning the ghost history of Old Town. And ghost stories of the locations we walked to. Our tour guide was really nice and funny. The way she told the stories was very entertaining. It was also cool that they have an option where you can rent a EMF reader for the tour! Also at a couple locations they showed us EVPs that were captured which was cool to hear! Overall if you are visiting ABQ or live here, it's a cool experience to have all around. And you never know, something could always happen on the tour that's unexplainable

It's one of the best ghost walks I've been on across the country! You definitely have to take an evening of your trip to Albuquerque to stop in and hear all the interesting local tales of Historic Albuquerque! We had a great guide who took us through the entirety of Old Town, stopping to tell so many spooky local stories along the route. I would highly recommend this tour if you do, or even if you dont believe in ghosts, you learn so many interesting things that I didn't even know living here for years! The walk is about 2 hrs long and is a very slow pace with many stops, many of which have a seat for you to rest if needed so very easily walkable!

What an experience!!! My husband and I went to the Historic Tour early in the day with Misty and she was a complete delight!! She made every story she told so fun!! I couldn't get enough of her knowledge. THEN at night we HAD to come back and experience the Ghost Tour with Shane. OMG what a blast. When someone is so excited to tell the historical stories of ghost it just makes the whole thing that much better!! I loved all the stories and the history of Old Town Albuquerque! 10/10 highly recommended you go if you happen to be in Albuquerque! Thank you Misty and Shane for giving us an amazing tour!!

Such an awesome experience! Definitely recommend anyone that is in the Albuquerque area to reserve your spot on the tour. All the history, stories, and lore told by Erica and Darrell were very interesting. They were a great guide duo; would love to come back and have them as my guides again. They kept the group engaged at all times, were very knowledgeable on the lore, and provided some great supporting material to the stories told. 10/10 would recommend to anyone (tourists and locals alike).

This was me and my husband’s first ghost tour, and it was absolutely awesome! Not only was it spooky, it was filled with really cool history about Old Town Albq. Charles was our guide, he is awesome at his job and is someone we could talk to for hours! As soon as the tour started, I took a photo of the church in the square, and it turned out pretty creepy. Call me crazy, but if you look closely in the center of the photo above the church, you can see a face! Whether your a true ghost believer, or someone who just enjoys some history, this is a really cool stop in Albuquerque.

  • Emilio Moore

The history tour with Craig was great he was very knowledgeable and a great wit. Ghost Tour with Mr and Mrs Montoya was great too, and definitely worth the money, especially with their experience with paranormal investigation. This would be a 5 star review if it wasn't for Charlie being rude and condescending at the ticket booth. We got our tickets separately and tried to explain it to him. Of course, he had to be a jerk to people who just didn't know that there were multiple public tours at the same time. Overall, great tours and great guides, just not Charlie.

  • Michelle Gudin

Erica and Lin (idk spelling) did a great job guiding us and making us feel safe on our late night tour! I did not see any spirits but the tour was very entertaining and spooky. Erica was a great storyteller; I got emotional at times and learned a lot about Albuquerque’s history! I would absolutely recommend this tour for anyone living in or visiting Abq at least once. There’s also a delightful cat that apparently interrupts every single tour.

My 11 year old loved it. The tour guide was great—funny too! We liked the Scarlet story so much we went back after 10 pm to see if we could see anything in the alley . I snapped but a picture from my car bc I was too freaked out to go into the alley. It does look like there might be something down there…standing by the white wall by the gate. I added a zoom in and a day shot to compare.

Our tour guide Jamie was informative, personable and answered all our questions. My family really enjoyed all the history and especially the ghost stories. This was our first time taking a private tour and I highly recommend doing this as opposed to the public tour, it costs a little more but it was a great experience. I would highly recommend this as it's one of the best ones we've been on.

We loved our ghost tour tonight! Erika was a perfectly dynamic storyteller, and Edwin kept us physically and spiritually safe. My 2 elementary-aged kids really enjoyed it - just spooky enough without it giving nightmares. We highly recommend! Our credentials: we've been on 20+ ghost tours throughout the US. This is one I'd come back for!

My wife and I had an amazing experience with Misty as our tour guide. She told the stories of the former residents of Old Town with enough humor to balance out the spookiness. It was definitely interesting to hear about the history and gives us a new view of the area knowing what happened in some of the buildings. Worth every penny, and may have caught an apparition

The tour was very informative. Misty was great! We had our grandmother with us and she made sure she was accommodating to her having to use ramps etc with her walker. She got everyone involved in the stories and made it very fun! She even walked with us after to show us the alley behind covered wagon. Sorry no spoilers here!

This was quite the adventure. Very educational about the history of Old Town. We learned a lot about what certain buildings, restaurants, and stores actually were in the 18 and early 19's. We loved our tour guide. His name was Jasper. He kept the whole night exciting and he had such a great personality. We sure do wish we would have seen a ghost oh, but we did it. Maybe you will if you go. We definitely recommend the ghost tours of Old Town.

  • Abraham Lopez

Had a really great Ghost tour experience with Craig and Jaime! I try to do a ghost tour in every city I visit across the country and this one ranks pretty high on my list. The stories were very solid and engaging. Our guides were so energetic and wonderful story tellers. Thank you for the History and ghost stories.

Our tour guide was amazing! She was so into her stories and made the whole tour fantastic! I’m not usually into ghost stories but she had a way of bringing you in with her excitement and dramatic gestures. I would not have guessed Albuquerque had such an intriguing history. I would definitely try it out!

First time in Albuquerque and decided to join my friends on the spooky walking tour of Old Town. Great storytelling with hosts Jamie and Susan. Interesting tales of the town, it's history, and past residents who haunt the area...be sure to dress warm and watch out for the spirit animals that come to greet you on their nightly prowl!!

We did a private ghost tour with Charlie as our tour guide. He was amazing and the tour was incredible. We’ve done several ghost tours in multiple states/cities and this was by far the best (and creepiest) one we have ever been on. It’s a easy walk (no hills) with multiple places to sit if you need. If you are ever in Old Town, this is a must do. Absolutely fantastic.

  • D. Steele

My son (14) and I had the most amazing time. Our guide, Alison, was just fantastic. She was engaging and witty which made her a wonderful storyteller. It was so fun to hear about some of the old Albuquerque history. We had no idea about the fascinating things that took place right in our own little city.

Just did my first ever ghost tour with Charlie as my guide, and I think I’ve been spoiled from future tours. Charlie’s fantastic storytelling was backed by his great enthusiasm and genuinely wonderful personality. The stories were all diverse and spooky and rich with history. What a memorable way to be introduced to Albuquerque. Highly recommend.
