We recently took the Ghosts & Gravestones tour in St. Augustine and had a really fun time overall. Even before the tour started, the waiting area set the mood perfectly--it had a slightly creepy vibe with all the displays, which got us excited (and a little on edge) for what was coming. Our tour guide was fantastic--engaging, knowledgeable, and just the right amount of theatrical. The driver was also a character and added some extra personality to the experience. The stops were interesting, especially the wax museum and the old jail. My wife got a bit freaked out at those parts, but nothing was over-the-top scary. If you're looking for something entertaining with a spooky twist--but not too intense--this is definitely worth doing. We're glad we went and would recommend it to anyone visiting St. Augustine! read more

What we thought was just a small gift shop turned into one of the most memorable parts of our evening. My sisters and I initially stopped in because my sister was cold and needed a sweater. While browsing, we noticed something in the back of the store about tours and were a bit confused, so we asked about it. That's when we discovered the Ghosts & Gravestones tour--and immediately decided to sign up for it after dinner. After our meal, we returned for the tour and spent over an hour riding around the city in a trolley guided by Shamus and Slick, who were fantastic hosts. They were entertaining, knowledgeable, and made the entire experience feel immersive and fun. The tour took us to several fascinating spots, including the Old Jail and Potter's Wax Museum, which was especially exciting because I had already wanted to visit those places. Along the way, we heard eerie ghost stories, learned some local history, and even visited a cemetery, which added to the whole atmosphere of the night. It ended up being such a unique and memorable experience--definitely not what we expected when we walked into what we thought was just a gift shop. It was the perfect, slightly spooky way to end our evening. Highly recommend if you're looking for something fun and different to do! read more

This tour was amazing and such a fun way to experience St. Augustine at night. I thoroughly enjoyed it from start to finish. The trolley takes you to several spooky and historic stops, including the Wax Museum, the Old Jail, and other haunted areas around the city, which made it feel immersive and interactive instead of just sitting and listening. The guides were entertaining and did a great job keeping things fun, especially if you're willing to be a good sport. Getting chosen to participate definitely adds to the experience and makes it even more memorable. This is a 10/10 activity in my opinion. It's great for families, date night, or anyone who enjoys a mix of history and spooky storytelling. We also loved doing this during Christmas time because you get the bonus of seeing all the holiday lights around the city, which made everything feel extra magical. Highly recommend if you're visiting St. Augustine and want something fun, different, and well worth the time. read more

All the tour trucks were parked by the jail house but that is not where you go to start the tour. That was confusing. Also, the price for the tour just does not seem worth it. You are basically paying to ride around in an open air bus and hear ghost stories. We did take three stops on the tour to get out and see stuff but again, it mostly just stories being told. The people that did the tour stayed in character and did a great job telling the stories but it just doesn't seem worth the price overall. read more

Luna was the best guide you could ask for, she was funny, personable, and knew her history. Charlie was our favorite part

I absolutely loved it. I love horror movies. Creepy documentaries. I cannot do haunted houses and actual jump scares. This was a great tour of the dark creepy history of the town. Lot of the stories we heard prompted us to look up and read up on later. We did it the nights of lights premier day, we got to see the lights too! Dana was our ghost host and Chuckles and C4 our drivers, they all did great! I was creeped out and intrigued. I will say I didn't go into the jail as she warned it's dark and hard for some people. My husband did go on up and he said it was creepy but interesting. read more

My family and I decided to book a last minute ghost adventure at Ghost and Gravestone in Saint Augustine on my night off. Our ghost host was Violet, who did an amazing job telling ghost stories and local history. She was really into character and was the highlight of our experience.

This was a terrific experience for our family, so fun and informative! This is our second ghost tour, we love them!

Ghosts and Gravestones St. Augustine was absolutely wonderful! My not-blood sister Claire saw a spooky little ghost at the Old Town Jail! Cheeky lil bastard got away. In that same spooky jail my not-blood brother Evan filmed quite the video! Go below to see it. Overall I was spooked at a medium degree--it wasn't too scary but it still shocked the bones. I enjoyed the experience, and would recommend it to anyone! p.s: boo! haha scared you! read more

This was a spur of the moment outing, Hazel and Dangerous Deb were great hosts. Kevin and Bill were to die for!

My family and I had a great time on this night time tour of Old St. Augustines darker history with a twist, spooky but with some laughs too. I recommend touring with Violet, she is a really great story teller and host. She really gets into character making you feel you have been transported back in time. The Executioner was convincing at the wax museum and the other actors at the jail house made it fun but shivered my timbers also. Chuckles was the bus driver and he made sure we watched our step in a spooky way. I would recommend it from teens to adults. read more

This was such a fun experience! Alastair, chuckles, the executioner, and Charlie all did so well! Their commitment to the stories kept us following closely to every word. It was one of our favorite things we did the whole time we were in town. Highly recommend read more

More ghost stories than anything else. The staff working this tour did an incredible job with their stories, descriptions and acting. The tour begins at the welcome center next to Ripley's. We chose the 8:40 tour and I am glad since the tour would not have been as enjoyable during daylight. Once checked in, you are moved to a room that had some really interesting items. Unfortunately, because the tour is so packed and the room so small, looking at everything was impossible. Once our tour guide, Luna, arrived, the tour began. We departed for the tour shuttle and headed into town. Our first stop was the cemetery outside of Potter's Wax Museum, then time in the museum (both in the old drugstore section and back into the wax museum). We also spent a lot of time inside the Old Jail. I think many of us were expecting something more from this experience, so it was a little disappointing. read more

This trolley tour is fun to do one time. The stories were pretty good, the actors were great. We stopped off at an old cemetery, the potter wax museum and the old jail. It was cool being in those places at night and after hours. Everyone at the trolley depot was nice and helpful, free parking was a bonus. read more

This was our 3rd time to take this Ghosts & Gravestone Tour. It didn't seem to be as in-depth and interesting as the first two times. It wasn't that we had seen the tour already. We take nieces/nephews on the tour when they turn 13. She happened to be 16, took too long to get her to St. Augustine. That being said it was still worth the time. read more

Our guide, Liotta, our driver, Dangerous Deb, The Executioner, and "Charlie" were great. The stories and the details of the stories were good. However, my group all agreed that there was something missing to really give it a 5 star rating. The tour is very kid friendly so maybe a real "scare" factor is what's missing from the tour. My group had a great time, but just walked away wanting a little more scare/uneasiness. read more

My husband and I came in from Tampa to st Augustine! It was a long and awaited trip we both have been wanting to take! I booked the tour with ghosts and gravestones! We enjoyed everything about it. Cassandra was our tour guide, she was awesome! The stories she told were good and spooky. She knew a good amount of history and is an excellent tour guide. We enjoyed going around and seeing the different spots of the beautiful town. I just wish the tour was a little longer so we could spend more time at each spot, other than that it was perfect. read more

We had a frightfully fun time on the Ghosts & Gravestones Tour. Our guide was very entertaining. I enjoyed her stories. We went to the Potters Wax Museum and had some spooky tales while inside.

I've now done this tour twice and I'm honestly shocked that people have found anything to complain about. It's cheap. The parking is great. They have access to an actual wax museum and legitimate historical jail. What's not to love? The storytelling and character actors add so much to this. It's truly one of the best things to do in St. Augustine. read more

A bunch of theatre kids performing, didn't learn a single thing from this tour. I paid $40 for a sleepy bus ride.

Toys was so much fun. I actually jumped several times..surprises you aren't expecting. Serci was amazing as the ghost guide, Tammy was very good as jail inmate! I highly recommend this tour...go at night. It makes it much spookier. read more

It was cute. I mean, if you're wanting to get scared, this probably isn't the tour for you. If you're tired of walking all day, then maybe. It was like a drive by crash course of information. We got down 2 times. One, at a graveyard, but only on the platform, by a restaurant we ate at earlier that day. Haha sooooo, besides the leaf that fell fast on me as I was taking a pic ... no scares there. Haha And then, a stop at the wax museum. But it was just the entrance room, a dark hallway, and a story room. The scariest was the hallway, because my friends are crazy. Mystery taps. Haha Maybe it could be fun for the kids, if you don't want too much of a fright. Thanks! read more

A really fun thing to do in St. Augustine! Looking for a little "boo" with lots of history? Here ya go. Jump on their bus, jump off at a grave yard, listen to the history and gaze at the graves that hold the spirits of the past. Next tour the oldest pharmacy, then hear tales of bootlegging gone bad, while on to the Old Jail. Once inside the Old Jail, you are treated to a Birds Eye view of what prisoners faces on death row. Out back, more tales of the gallows gone bad. It was a fun evening with nice bus driver & excellent tour guide! I would recommend walking shoes as you will be walking in the dark on uneven surfaces and up and down stairs. I would also take a water with you as they don't offer any along the tour & weather was hot and humid. read more

A fun and entertaining tour... As fun and as entertaining as it was, I was expecting a bit more, but at an hour runtime they squeezed in what they could. A bus tour packed full with patrons, they take you around town telling a few scaring stories along with a couple of stops where some actors do a good job telling additional stories from the stops we made. If you've never done it, it's well worth a try... read more
