If you like music and breweries, the fender bender tour is for you! Our host Glen, curated the experience, with the music of Uni-Horn as we were transported through Asheville as we visited 3 breweries, and had a rocking good time. Highly suggest this tour, even locals told us, they do the tour at least once a year, because it's so much fun. My pro tip , split a flight of beer at each stop so you can try as many beers as possible. read more

We decided to go on the Friday 5:00pm LaZoom Comedy Bus City Tour. It was well run and very organized. The City tour is Family friendly and packed with good silly fun. The Comedian(s) are punny and shared some fun facts about the city. There was one bathroom stop at Green Man Brewery. Overall a fun time. read more

Fun and educational Always enjoy the on and off activities with the staff. I've done this tour twice and would do it again! Only downside is no air conditioning read more

We had an absolute blast on the ghostly La Zoom tour last night! The actors were amazing, and I loved how they tied in the public for an act as well! Zelda Fitzgerald would not have been complete without a dog running at her full speed! I love the ability to purchase drinks at the main hub as well as snacks! The packed cooler is an added bonus! I hope this becomes an addition in Charlotte as well!! I definitely recommend this tour if you're looking for a night of laughter and amusement! Thank you La Zoom! read more

This was special. I laughed so hard that I had tears. (It takes a lot to get me to this point.) We booked this in advance. The tours usually sell out and I'm so thankful we didn't miss out on this. Our tour guides were H I L A R I O U S. They offer drinks beforehand. Have a drink before you start. This was so much fun. I loved every minute of it. read more

The la zoom ghost tour of Asheville was so much fun! We joined as part of a wedding excursion and we're unsure we wanted to go, but ended up having an absolutely incredible time! The tour guides and actors were amazing and so hilarious the whole bus was cracking up the whole time. Very fun that you can get drinks and bring them on the bus, and also extra nice that they give you little cooler bags to bring with you on the bus. Overall, I would absolutely recommend this to anyone I know coming to visit Asheville, it was such a fun time! read more

Did the Hey Asheville tour last week. So much fun! Learning interesting facts while laughing is THE way to go. Both entertainers were great but our main tour guide, "Cookie," was fabulous. Just one note for those with sensitive ears: don't sit directly under a speaker - it can get loud! read more

We did the comedy tour of Asheville and it was awesome! Every single employee was wonderful to interact with and we especially loved our tour guide Oliver. He made it fun and we laughed the whole time - while still learning stuff about the local history! Highly recommended!!! read more

La Zoom reopened while I was in Asheville and I knew I needed to take a tour. I'm happy I did and Bridget was the best! She was both funny and creative and yet empathetic to the current situation. She is very talented! The tour route is slightly changed because of road closures. But the tour is the same with the comedy and history provided as the tour goes on. It still provides the escape needed. The La Zoom Room is a fun place to hand out before the tour starts. They have a bar with alcohol and non-alcoholic beverages and some snacks. Remember to check in first to receive your chicken to board the bus. read more

We do the beer bus every year. These guys are GREAT! Lots of fun. The bus s decorated for the holidays. The live music is fun. It's great to ride the route and stop at the breweries. Great night of entertainment. Highly recommended. read more

What a fun unexpected tour this ended up to be. We went on the comedy tour and had a ball. It was entertaining as well as information all, the staff was professional and helpful. They answered questions, they engaged with the entire bus and I definitely feel like we got our money's worth. I would always give them a five-star rating. read more

What a strange ghost comedy show. You must enjoy quirky stuff or this may not be for you. We impulsively bought tickets as we were walking by with our adventure cat. The staff was sooooo accommodating but even for a highly flexible and adventurous cat, this show was a bit too loud for him. He handled it like a champ but it was a cat-parenting fail. The staff was sweet to him and the show was funny (and quirky). It's a fun experience in Asheville. read more

My friend and I went to La Zoom comedy tour when we were in NC. It was definitely a different way to see the city. I would highly recommend going there if you're looking for tours. They start you off with giving a rubber chicken with a number. Once they call your number, you can go on the bus. As you're on the tour, you can have adult beverages. Throughout the tour, we met other actors that would climb on the bus and have some sort of funny dialogue. The tour guide was very interactive with the guests and knew how to work the audience. About halfway through, we stopped at a local brewery for about 10-15 mins. Once the tour was over, they had a comedy night/open mic where you checked in. I would definitely recommend doing this if you're in town. read more

I thought the guy that started out talking to us was dynamic & funny until our actual tour guide, Cookie Carter, came on the bus. She was hilarious & delightful and I really appreciate her positive spirit! The guy's comedy bits were a little corny, but the bee was the funniest. The only thing I wish was different was instead of the beer stop (which was awesome for a bathroom break), I wish we could have had some of those Sammie's ICE CREAM SANDWICHES! We kept meaning to go by there, but wasn't able to this visit. Cookie really sold us on that ice cream. Lol. I would want to bring everyone I know on this tour! The hardest part was trying to figure out parking, but the garage across the street was perfect because it was only $5, I think. We just had to figure out how to drive past and find a uturn to get back to it. read more

We're still laughing the next morning after our Friday November 7th ghost tour. This experience was way better than I expected. These are pro comedians with a well practiced show. And they still work in the history of the area. Glen was our spooky, somewhat creepy in a hilarious way, guide who also entertained us with some amazing guitar playing. I was surprised when we were boarded by our first historic guest boarding (played by the talented Corrine, sp?). This happened several times through out our journey. I don't want to give away any more of the surprises. I just want to impress how talented these folks are and I feel like we got more than our money's worth. So glad we signed up for this tour. FUN and FUNNY! There's a beer and wine bar at the meeting point so go at least 30 minutes early. They can even outfit you with a mini cooler for the road. Tip, the night we went was a little windy and cold so I suggest a jacket. The roll-up plastic windows were open a couple of inches at the bottom and the breeze came in at times when the vehicle picked up speed. These were short periods of only a few minutes and we survived. Totally worth it. read more

I was there 9/19/25 730 pm and raining. I have been twice before and loved it (pre-covid). This was the first Ghost tour. It was terrible. Only one guy who couldnt remember locations of the characters and thought it was funny to ask the bus driver. Mainly though he was a poor story teller. He even made a dis on RFK Jr. And said he didnt like him and if anyone complained he would do it more then laughed. Politics ahould not be a part of Ghostly La zoom tour. There was only him. In the past, La zoom had actors poised outside along the route with wireless mics and interaction. This one was a one guy schtick who wasnt immersed at all. Sorry. read more

We had the most out of this world time on the Ghosted: Comedy Bus Tour! I laughed so hard that my face hurt! Bonsey was an incredible tour guide/actor/performer. I don't want to give anything away, just know that the night is filled with awesome surprises. I can't wait to plan another trip to Asheville to book another tour. read more

This was HYSTERICAL!! I laughed the full 90 minutes and also learned about Asheville. Cookie was funny and had amazing acrobatic skills and the bumble bee and beer man were awesome! Thanks for a great afternoon - laughter is the best medicine read more

This is so hard to rate. I know this is a comedy tour so I am trying my hardest to be fair based on that. But I wanted it to be scary!!! At least a little bit. But it wasn't scary whatsoever. It was fun though so I can't hate on it. The comedy was cheesy but enjoyable. It was pouring rain and they did a great job of making sure that everyone was dry and comfortable. It was nice to be able to bring your drinks on the bus with you too. read more

I was fully expecting this tour to be kind of corny based on the pictures, and it was, but it was corny in the best of ways. I found myself laughing over and over again, and I would definitely go on the tour again. Extremely well done. read more

So fun!! The actors' commitment to being silly and entertaining is inspiring! Oliver was an excellent tour guide! I recommend this tour 100%!! read more

My husband and I visited Asheville and had heard LaZoom was a must! Our tour did not disappoint. We did the "Hey Asheville" tour and it was filled with the appropriate amount of comedy and history. We've never done anything like this is another city and will recommend this to any of our friends visiting the city! read more

Location We walked through town to the LaZoom HQ. Service Very friendly and efficient from start to finish. Atmosphere Think eclectic and FUN! There is a bar for refreshments and snacks as well as a fun group ft area. When you check in they give you a rubber chicken with a number to board the timed bus. We got there early and were #2. Tour History, fun, music and MORE! Cookie Carter was awesome-started off with two splits! Sister Mary Hairy and Beer Man were not far behind. There are adult and family friendly tours available. Note You can purchase beverages to drink on the bus. There is a half way stop at a local brewery to re-load and refresh. Summary We recommend this tour to EVERYONE touring Asheville. Fun and informative. read more

From reservation to the last moment on the tour everything was organized,clean, and well managed. The tour itself was informative and funny. The guides were well rehearsed and put on a great show. Highly recommend!! read more

What a fun time! I visited Asheville this weekend with some friends and finally took a lazoom tour. I lived here for 7 years so I've seen them all over and never did one myself. We did the haunted one at night and it was very fun and enjoyable! read more

Cookie and Scott were a dynamic duo. Full of energy, humor and great knowledge of Asheville. This tour bus was definitely a highlight of our visit. Be ready for a comic filled ride through Asheville. We were visiting from Boston and have never had a tour like this - LaZoom knows how to do tours the right way! Cookie and Scott's impressive energy made me exhausted- I will never forget this trip and when I return to Asheville will take this joyous, unforgettable romp again. I recommend you do as well! read more

This is a must do. It was so much better than I expected. The tour is hilarious, and they provide a cooler for you to put the drinks you buy. They don't price gouge you on the beers. It's well organized and runs smooth. Worth the money. Best part of my trip to Ashville by far. read more

I can't understand the high reviews for this tour. We took the Ghosted - one hour, night tour (7:30 pm). For your ticket, you got driven around Asheville, with beers and wine in hand (if you purchased them from LaZoom) and enjoyed a live performance of a show while seated in an open air bus. The host was a "murdered girl ghost" and her acting was amazing. Somehow she was able to tell a few ghost stories while the bus was moving, and timed with with other "characters" running on/off the bus in the streets and neighborhoods. Overall, the execution was really good. Maybe I am not good with the "f-bomb" humor and it was hard to catch all the lines since the bus was so loud. Value (2/5): At $37 per person, this was way too much to pay. I would have been more comfortable with a $20 price tag. Service (5/5): The hosts inside LaZoom were super nice, the guide was great too. No complaints. Atmosphere (4/5): Before the ride, there was a really nice lounge area with large comfy seats and stuffed cats, which makes for a great pics. Is it sad that this was best part of the ride? read more

This purple bus cruising around town is iconic and you'll just see crowds of people screaming, "LaZoOoOoOm!!" It's a staple within Asheville community and I don't think I've ever been on any other bus tour with the same experience. The Ghosted: Comedy Bus Tour we purchased for $33 + 4.50 fees is mostly Comedy with some loose facts time and place with characters woven into the performance. When you arrive to their building you check in by name on the reservation and they'll hand you a rubber chicken with a number, which indicates your priority to board. First come first serve. We arrived about 15 minutes before the scheduled time and got #5 on a Saturday night. They have so many whimsical decorations inside from skeletons to hidden cat pillows and mannequins for photo op while you wait. You can also order a drink that you can bring onto the bus. They didn't start boarding onto the open air bus until another 10 minutes after the ticket time. Comedy is subjective, so I can understand that some of the bits won't land with everyone. There was one line in particular slipped in passing by the comedian who played Beezlebus maybe from Stanley Kubrik's Full Metal Jacket that just made me uncomfortable when he referenced the line "Me love you long time". My SO insisted that it was part of pre-scripted monologue... At the same time, I don't even understand how it related to the context of any of the jokes or would have added value to the tour. Of course no one else picked up on the unnecessary racist line, since we were sitting in the front. I need to deduct at least 1 star for this alone. The show moved on quickly. There were some self deprecating jokes about studying Liberal Arts/English at the local UNC while working this job with some audience participation so it seemed like they had fun working the crowd. The rest of the show was entertaining overall. I enjoyed the comedienne following the bus changing into the character to board the bus. Some of the notable characters were Zelda Fitzerald, the Pig Man, nun, etc... and I enjoyed the banter between the 2 characters much more than the host alone. The volume with music was too loud. The bus driver maneuvered the streets slowly aside from this one section behind the UNC campus so it was impressive seeing Beezlebus sing and dance on a moving vehicle. It was interesting seeing the contrast with the sites we visited at night when we also took the traditional Hop On/Hop Off bus tour a couple days later. I'd recommend they revisit the scripted jokes and tighten the material. I'd be interested to see how their standard comedy tour and kid's show differ. The biking nun also appears to be iconic within the city. If you lookup things to do in Asheville this surely tops the lists. It's worth checking out, especially if you can get a 10% discount for tours Sunday-Thursday. If you're local in the county you can get 20% off. Otherwise not sure if I can fully recommend it's worth the ~$38 before tipping the crew. read more

I had gone here years ago when I first moved in Asheville, so this was my second time. It was probably 10 years sense so it was definitely a different experience. I have always recommend in Lazoom as something to do that is touristy, but also worth it, and I stand true to that. They recommend you arrive 15 minutes early and we arrived about 13 minutes early because we could we'd take a few minutes to get the check. We were graced with the chicken of shame but the person who checked us in was incredibly friendly about it and it was all just a joke. However, they run a tight shit so I would definitely get there early. You no longer make the stop at thirsty Monk and you do work I need to purchase your drinks from them. I will say that for Asheville, the drinks are pretty affordable. They have beer, wine, seltzer... I'd recommend getting 1 to 2 for the tour as it lasts exactly an hour. I would also recommend going to the bathroom beforehand or getting there extra early. There was quite a long line for the bathroom. Our tour guide was Lorelei, and they were incredibly well practiced and engaging. They did a great job, mixing history with humor and a little bit of improv. The other staff that joined intermittently on the tour was also an incredible actor. Great theatrics all around. For the price, I feel like this is quite expensive. Especially as you definitely need to tip. I also feel like the route is a little shorter, and you feel pretty rushed so that they can get the next tour started. Years ago I did the original tour and this time I did a haunted one which is offered in October. Honestly, I would definitely go again a few years as they change things up and it's totally worth it. read more

Honestly one of the best experiences we have had!! It's dorky, it's cheesy, but it's so much fun! We took our dog and everyone was so friendly with her and checked multiple times to make sure she was okay with the music, etc when we stopped. Everyone was so friendly and really made you get into it. Highly recommend!! Thanks Kelly, Matt, and TB!! read more
