    Dissapointed ghost tour

    Spent 300.00 on 10 tickets, the guide talked about her personal experiences & how she has a side business as a your guide and how to book her privately for tarot readings etc, she highly suggested tips not once but twice, the website shows their guides dressed in costume, ours was not. I have been on this tour before and she did not take us to half of the historical places , their website shows you going inside the Menger, we were made to stand outside of it for 30 minutes. If we wanted a tour if san antonio this would have been fine. We live in San antonio we know where and what to visit. We paid to hear ghostly accounts & stories. Very dissapointed that the manager & owner did not reach out to me. I do not recommend this tour, their are others in San Antonio

    Great way to learn...

    Great way to learn detailed in depth history of newly visited locations. Our guide Stewart was funny, knowledgeable, and for a walking tour kept a good pace. Would highly recommend and looking forward to doing other tours with this group in the future.

    San Antonio Haunted History Ghost Tour: questions travelers ask

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

    How much does San Antonio Haunted History Ghost Tour cost?

    +

    Prices start at $32 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in San Antonio usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does San Antonio Haunted History Ghost Tour take?

    +

    Plan for about 1.5 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 San Antonio is not rushed.

    Is San Antonio Haunted History Ghost Tour worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 80 out of 100, which we label "Exceptional". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.6/5 across 795 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in San Antonio, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule San Antonio Haunted History Ghost 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 San Antonio Haunted History Ghost Tour suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 1.5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book San Antonio Haunted History Ghost Tour?

    +

    Around 278 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 San Antonio 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 San Antonio and add a light layer if any part of the 1.5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does San Antonio Haunted History Ghost 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 San Antonio 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 San Antonio?

    +

    San Antonio runs River Walk cruises and dinner tours, Alamo and mission trail history walks, ghost tours through the old quarter, and Hill Country wine and cave trips. Mission tours vary in whether they cover all five UNESCO sites. On Outty we rank every San Antonio experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include The Escape Game San Antonio: Epic 60-Minute Adventures at The Rim, Walking Tour Along the San Antonio Riverwalk And Around Downtown, Small-Group World Heritage San Antonio Missions Guided Tour. 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 San Antonio?

    +

    March to May and October to November. 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 San Antonio?

    +

    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.
