Tour was fun and informative. Not sure I’d call it a “ghost walk” - more of a history lesson tour. Tour guide was wonderful and kept everyone together and safe. It’s a fun “intro” to the city if it’s your first time.

Ot was very interesting given I am a native Pittsburgher and there were many things discussed that I was unaware of.

The tour was fantastic! Our guide, Danny, was so knowledgeable and fun. I learned a lot about Pittsburgh history and loved seeing all the sites.
