    Will look forward to the next tour in a different city

    This is a very well done recording, and the app is easy to navigate. The content is interesting and engaging. The service from the operator is excellent. We had one technical difficulty that he was able to assist with in less than 5 minutes. The only downside of the whole tour was not the fault of the operator at all, and that was the lack of a feeling of personal safety along the route. Apparently, panhandlers are permitted in Asheville, and we encountered dozens. We went during the daylight and still did not feel safe enough to be immersed in the tour. I recommend doing this tour with a larger group and definitely participate during daylight hours. I highly recommend this tour operator, but in my opinion solo travelers, families with young children or couples should consider participating in a different city tour.

    Enjoyed the experience.

    Enjoyed the walkabout. Lots of interesting tidbits. Installing both apps took about 15 minutes. A good exposure to downtown Asheville.

    Inexpensive, informative ghost tour-includes limited area only

    Chose the walking tour as the bus tour was not available over Christmas. Was a great walk, easy to follow directions, and entertaining narration of AVL ghosts. We were promised emails containing addresses of additional places of interest we might want to visit by car the next day-unfortunately 1 week later and that information still hasn’t arrived.

    A Family Friendly Ghost Tour

    Nina did a fantastic job. We enjoyed her wit and informative information on the scary side of Savannah. We and tweens on the tour and she made sure she engaged them throughout.

    Asheville's Famous Ghosts Smart Phone GPS APP Solo Walking Tour: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Asheville.

    How much does Asheville's Famous Ghosts Smart Phone GPS APP Solo Walking Tour cost?

    +

    Prices start at $10 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Asheville usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Asheville's Famous Ghosts Smart Phone GPS APP Solo Walking Tour take?

    +

    Plan for about 0.9 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Asheville is not rushed.

    Is Asheville's Famous Ghosts Smart Phone GPS APP Solo Walking Tour worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 63 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.5/5 across 4 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Asheville, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Asheville's Famous Ghosts Smart Phone GPS APP Solo Walking Tour?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is Asheville's Famous Ghosts Smart Phone GPS APP Solo Walking Tour suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 0.9-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Asheville's Famous Ghosts Smart Phone GPS APP Solo Walking Tour?

    +

    Around 1 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Asheville can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Asheville and add a light layer if any part of the 0.9-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Asheville's Famous Ghosts Smart Phone GPS APP Solo Walking Tour start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Asheville within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Asheville?

    +

    Asheville pairs Biltmore Estate visits with Blue Ridge Parkway waterfall tours, brewery crawls through one of the densest beer scenes in America, and guided hikes in Pisgah. Biltmore ticket handling and parkway route detail are what to check. On Outty we rank every Asheville experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Blue Ridge Parkway and Waterfall Hiking Tour from Asheville, Asheville Historic Downtown Guided Electric Bike Tour with Scenic Views, Gem Mining and Goat Farm Walking Tour in Hendersonville. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Asheville?

    +

    April to June and October for autumn colour. Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Asheville?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
