You will search for the lost souls of early residents, Civil War phantoms, spooks, specters, wandering apparitions and over one dozen other ghosts who have made Old Town their eternal home. Learn the history and basics of Ghost Hunting as you hear the chilling stories of actual events. Old Town is one of the most actively haunted locations in North America. Residents, employees and tourists have all experienced unexplained phenomena. From actual sightings of full apparitions which seem to vanish impossibly into thin air; to disembodied voices heard in empty buildings; even objects moving mysteriously on their own.
Come with an open mind and bring your digital camera. Guests have captured many curious unexplained phenomena in photos taken during the tour.
Guided Outdoor Strolls last from 90-Minutes to 2-Hours.

Review This HauntEmail Verified PERFECT NIGHT IN ABQ
THANK YOU! Absolutely loved our tour! Informative and hugely entertaining. Can't think of a better way to spend a summer evening. We just got back to our hotel and might have brought some additional guests with us. Wondering if we'll sleep…
Scare Factor: Fun Factor: Haunt Value: Email Verified Great storytelling about the ghosts of Old Town
Took my daughter (18) and toured with Charlie and Lin. Charlie is a great storyteller, drawing you in so you can imagine these events that took place so many years ago! Was left wanting more! Tour lasted about 2 hours which was perfect. It was dark but felt very safe. It's not a far walk, but would recommend very comfortable shoes as some of the bricks/pavement is uneven. They had water for very reasonable price for purchase, which I would encourage. Great experience, highly recommend! 5 stars from me!

6 of us did the old town ghost tour last night with Victor & Sherry. The history was fascinating and the ghost stories were interesting and fun! If you're looking for a fun evening, I highly recommend this tour company! Ask for Victor & Sherry, you won't be disappointed!
Scare Factor: Fun Factor: Haunt Value: Email Verified Guided by the best
We attended a wonderful tour with Victor and Stephanie. He told stories like watching a one man play. He is friendly and knowledgeable and funny and has the best stories. All were captivated and intrigued with the lives of the people that had past on. It included a bit of history of old town and we now have new restaurants and places to visit in old town. We left feeling very good about the whole experience.
Scare Factor: Fun Factor: Haunt Value: Email Verified Best Ghost Tour Ever
Fantastic tour, very informative and could get pretty spooky. Our tour guides did a wonderful job, dramatic at times, scary at others, and funny too. A couple of folks in our group even had an experience that seemed pretty paranormal to us.

Email Verified SPOOKTACULAR!!! Must-do ABQ activity!!
WOW! WOW! SUPER WOW! Our lil’ family just finished our first GHOST tour with the awesome ABQTours!! It was AMAZING! We were completely ensorcelled as our guide Charlie perfectly delivered tales of Old Town’s spooooooky past! No spoilers here but our guide’s ability to weave so wonderful a tour integrating the mournful details of specific mysteries and tragedies with the fascinating descriptions of long since gone old-tyme ABQ life was marvelous. And further enhanced as we heard these rich words while we strolled and gazed around at the actual historical buildings of Old Town, once home to these tragic events. LOVE LOVE LOVE. Already booked our next private, classic tour (fewer ghosts but more tales of wild wild old Albuquerque!!!!) Thank you Charlie & the whole ABQTours team!!!

Email Verified Fun, informative, ghost tour
We had a private ghost tour with Charlie. Lots of history sharing the stories of how the apparitions came to be. Took his time, didn't feel rushed at all and he sprinkled in extra good FAQs about the area.

Ghost Tour in Old Town ABQ
We had Charlie (and Lynn) as our tour guides and really enjoyed our experience. We participated in the Public 10pm tour. Charlie is an excellent historian and storyteller who is informative as well as entertaining. There is so much we learned about Albuquerque's past history and old town in particular. Since we live in ABQ we found this background very interesting and valuable. We highly recommend this tour!

Guide really knew his stuff and he made the tour so fun!!
My friends and I had a private ghost tour of Old Town Albuquerque in May 2021. Our tour guide, Craig, was phenomenal. He could answer any question we had to throw at him and he would explain every story around the town sparing no detail. His signature top hat and skull staff added so much more character too. Overall, I can’t picture the tour being as much fun with any other guide. Not to say the others are bad, as I have not toured with them, but Craig went absolutely above and beyond. I highly recommend asking for him if possible, he rules!!
