Spooky fun and real history
The boos and booze pub crawl is Shockhoe was both fun and we learned a lot. Abby, our tour guide, was very knowledgeable about the area's history and did a great job telling the story of Shockhoe and setting the vibe. Or party had a great time and highly recommend it!

Lame
Canceled 90 minutes before our tour started. When I tried to request a refund they were super rude. Use another company!

We’re sorry to hear your tour was canceled on short notice and that your experience with customer service left you feeling frustrated. It’s unfortunate to hear this did not meet your expectations, as this is not up to our normal standards and we understand your disappointment. We’d like the opportunity to look into this further and assist you. Please reach out to guestrelations@usghostadventures.com with your booking information so our team can review the situation and help resolve your concerns. Thank you.

Really awesome experience
Mars was a fantastic guide, and gave us a great experience. Very personal and informative, and a lot of fun. The drink stops were great and my wife said two of them were on her bucket list a she was wondering when we’d go. The stories and history provided a great backdrop for each location, and the others in the group were fantastic as well. A great time!
Response from the operator: Hello, there! Thank you for your thoughtful feedback! We’re happy Mars helped make your experience so enjoyable and memorable. We’ll pass along your compliments, and we hope you and your wife return soon for more fun, history, and maybe a few more bucket list stops!

Why this scores 55
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Richmond Ghosts Boos and Booze Haunted Pub Crawl: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Richmond.
How much does Richmond Ghosts Boos and Booze Haunted Pub Crawl cost?
+
Prices start at $30 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Richmond usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Richmond Ghosts Boos and Booze Haunted Pub Crawl take?
+
Plan for about 2 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 Richmond is not rushed.
Is Richmond Ghosts Boos and Booze Haunted Pub Crawl worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 55 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4/5 across 34 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Richmond, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Richmond Ghosts Boos and Booze Haunted Pub Crawl?
+
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 Richmond Ghosts Boos and Booze Haunted Pub Crawl suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 2-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Richmond Ghosts Boos and Booze Haunted Pub Crawl?
+
Around 12 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 Richmond 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 Richmond and add a light layer if any part of the 2-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Richmond Ghosts Boos and Booze Haunted Pub Crawl 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 Richmond 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 Richmond?
+
Richmond mixes Civil War and Black history tours with urban whitewater rafting on the James River, Hollywood Cemetery walks, mural rides and brewery crawls. On Outty we rank every Richmond experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include RVATukTuk Sightseeing Tour of Richmond, Richmond Downtown Walking Tour, Church Hill Food Tour with Discover Richmond Tours. 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 Richmond?
+
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 Richmond?
+
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.
