First Tour of Williamsburg, VA
I recently booked a tour for my family and I (6 total) for July 21st, 2024 at 10pm for the Ultimate Dead of Night Haunted Tour. I also selected the options to add the additional locations as well as the EMF detector Rental. The meeting time was 9:50 at the Kimball Theatre with a leaving time of 10pm however we showed up a few minutes late. The tour had started at 10pm but they were still at the initial location of the Kimball Theatre and the tour guide, Jared, was a good sport about our late arrival. Another minor mishap, I had accidentally messed up the booking a little by not selecting the proper amount of participants for the extra tour extension but he had regrettably told us that 2 of the detectors weren’t working so he had said that the bill had settled itself out that way!! When we started on the tour, it was quickly noted that Jared was very well informed of the locations, historically and supernaturally to give the participants of the tour a well rounded experience. Another noted thing was that he was age-accommodating too- a little joking and fun for the younger ones and lots of detail for the older participants so that everyone felt included. He was also very considerate of allowing time for photos to be taken at each location, as well as noting ahead of time if flash or no photos were to be taken at a certain location, he even pointed out best spots to get photos from previous experiences! One thing that I really appreciated was that he didn’t lay on the topics too heavy. Meaning that, for those who may not believe fully (or at all) in the supernatural, it wasn’t like the tour was 100% about it, you could still enjoy the tour as well as if you were a 100% believer of the other side. On the same hand, he wasn’t overbearing with the history either, striking a wonderful balance for all involved making it a truly exceptional tour, these guides really set themselves apart from other Touring Agencies. At the conclusion of the tour, Jared would make small conversation with participating people, and he also was quick to give a direction back to where people may have parked or if they were searching another location after their tour. He also let us know of other haunted locations we might be interested in checking out, as well as other events to participate in during our stay in colonial Williamsburg. Overall, we had a great experience and we would definitely book again with this same touring agency knowing the experience we had from the first time.
