    Included

    • A Pub Crawl With A Purpose

    What you'll see and do

    1. Historic District

      Over the course of the tour Guests will visit 4 distinct and unusual pubs. The crawl varies nightly (as we have 10 pubs to pick from), and no tour is the same twice. These are some of Wilmington's coolest, most interesting pubs that are off the beaten path (in alleyways, basements, rooftops), that most tourists and many locals would have a hard time finding them. Once at each pub there is time to use the restroom, purchase a drink or three (though there is NO obligation to purchase or consume alcohol during the tour), peruse the pub, & then gather around the guide. Each story will include the history behind the pub or location or town, and the ghostly occurrences as researched by our family since 1978. After the story there is time to finish drinks, take photos, ask questions and prepare for your journey to the next pub. All pubs are located in historic Wilmington and it's usually a block or two walk between each one.

    What a great time!

    Wilmington's Haunted Pub Crawl is a "must do"! Gina is AWESOME; very knowledgeable about the area's history & debauchery. Feels like an old friend walking you through the district, not a "tour guide". Kept us engaged and entertained throughout the entire experience! Will definitely do this again.

    Awesome Spooky Tour

    Had so much fun! Our guide was the sweetest and most fun person ever.(Callin - hope I spelt your name right!) I'm so glad we booked and learned the history around Wilmington. We went to really amazing hidden gems, shared some amazing stories and laughs and the group of people we were with all shared interpersonal stories which made it feel like we've been friends for years already. 10/10 recommend if you're looking for something fun and enjoyable in the downtown area!

    Original Haunted Pub Crawl in Wilmington: questions travelers ask

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

    How much does Original Haunted Pub Crawl in Wilmington cost?

    +

    Prices start at $33 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Wilmington usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Original Haunted Pub Crawl in Wilmington take?

    +

    Plan for about 2.5 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 Wilmington is not rushed.

    Is Original Haunted Pub Crawl in Wilmington worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 62 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 2 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Wilmington, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Original Haunted Pub Crawl in Wilmington?

    +

    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 Original Haunted Pub Crawl in Wilmington suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 2.5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Original Haunted Pub Crawl in Wilmington?

    +

    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 Wilmington 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 Wilmington and add a light layer if any part of the 2.5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Original Haunted Pub Crawl in Wilmington 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 Wilmington 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 Wilmington?

    +

    Wilmington runs riverfront history and ghost walks, Battleship North Carolina visits, film-location tours, and boat trips out to Wrightsville Beach and Masonboro Island. On Outty we rank every Wilmington experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include History and Architecture Walking Tour, THE Wilmington History, Haunts & Breweries E-Bike Tour (4 hr), Sailing Charters in Wilmington. 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 Wilmington?

    +

    April to June and September to October. 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 Wilmington?

    +

    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.
