Emily was a great narrator of historic Albuquerque. She gave fun stories about current and past history of old town Albuquerque. If you have a couple hours in Albuquerque don't pass up this tour.

This was such a cool experience! Perfect mix of history and spookiness! I have lived in Albuquerque my whole life and had never taken this tour before. I am so glad I did. If you’re thinking about going, you really should go and get the hunting equipment. It will make the experience that much better!

Best ghost tour I've ever taken and I've taken a lot of them I try to do a spooky walking tour any time I travel, and I've probably done dozens by now. Ghost Tour of Old Town in Albuquerque absolutely blew the rest out of the water. This was hands-down the best ghost tour I've ever been on- funny, creepy, thoughtful, and full of heart.

Frequently Asked Questions About Old Town Albuquerque Ghost Tours & History Tours
Q: What makes your ghost & history tours different?
A: We live and breathe Old Town. As Albuquerque’s only full-time, year-round tour operator, we’re out on the Plaza day and night. With over a decade of volunteering in the neighborhood, we know the locals, the legends, and the real history. When something strange happens, we’re the first to hear about it.
Q: Are the stories true?
A: Yes. We work with ghost hunters, paranormal investigators, and psychics. Every story we tell comes straight from the people who experienced it.
Q: How scary is the ghost tour?
A: Public tours are PG—fun, spooky, and family-friendly. Private or late-night 18+ tours are R-rated for language. No cheap jump scares—if something paranormal shows up, grab your camera!
Q: Do skeptics enjoy the ghost turs?
A: Absolutely. We share the stories, history, and evidence. You decide what to believe.
Q: Do tours sell out?
A: Yes, often. Book at least 2 hours ahead—earlier for weekends and holidays.

A: Yes! We host groups from 1 to 150—corporate events, birthdays, bachelor/ette parties, you name it.

A: Yes. Public tours are PG, private tours are great for families, and our 18+ tours are adults-only.
