San Antonio Ghost Tours

Trip Advisor .Com says we are one of the top ghost tours in America! This would also mean we are the very best ghost tour in San Antonio and Texas as well.

Alamo City Ghost Tours offers The Alamo Ghost Hunt, a walking tour of a little over a mile. We also offer the Ghost and Graveyard tour. On a climate controlled bus.

We don't advertise on Groupon or any dicount website. 100's of people have been fooled by these websites, you are not getting our tours. You will be getting a tour from a company, who will make more money by working for a 1/4 of their normal cost and letting you think you are paying for our tour, than they will normally make on their tour for a night. One of these companies is called Ghost Hunts of San Antonio Texas.

The Ghost and Graveyard Tour. This is a two and a half hour tour on a climate controlled bus. This is the only ghost tour that takes you on a bus to San Antonio's oldest graveyards. Walk among the dead while feeling the energy from the departed watching your every step. Do you know what it feels like to stand in the negative energy from the spirit of a killer? Have you ever wondered what a grave marker design or symbol might mean? If so this is the tour for you. This tour is partially on and partially off the bus to give you a real feel for the energy that surrounds you at these dark and haunted locations. If you do not want to get off the bus, No problem; rest on a comfortable climate controlled bus right along with the driver.

The Alamo Ghost Hunt Tour, our evening tour, was voted one of the top ghost tours in America 2009. We were also the most broadcasted Ghost Tour in San Antonio 2006-2009. We visit 13 different haunted locations. Why are these areas and buildings thought to be haunted today? The answer would be the amount of fast and brutal deaths that have taken place in the very locations we visit on the tour. This tour does not stay very long at one location. This is a fast pace high action tour. You will visit hanging trees, old cemeteries, and haunted hotels, along with places where people are entombed in the walls. You will stand in the very place where men, women and children begged for their lives while having their heads removed for fun and revenge. Feel the energy from those who remain behind today. These spirits remain from heroes and murderers, along with your average men, women and children, all with the same thing in common: to linger behind in death.

We have been leading Ghost Hunters through San Antonio's most haunted locations since 1996. Knowledgeable guides, historical accuracy and a top notch reputation are what have put us at the top of San Antonio's Best Entertainment List for the last 5 years.

Ghost Hunting 101, Plus True and Factual History. We also own Mission Trail Tours a well known local historical tour company. Our tours are very well known for true and unusual history. We have combined historical knowledge with 30 years of ghost hunting experience to create The Alamo Ghost Hunt, one of the top ghost tours in the country today. You don't get claims of true and factual history only to find out it's just dime store stories every local comic book store sells a copy of.

For the movie Paranormal Activity 2. We were chosen by Paramount Productions to be part of the promotion. We were sent Shirts, Hats, Posters and Screening passes. All to be given away to the guest on our tour.

Dallas Morning News: "I feel as if I have been transported into the 1980's movie Ghostbusters."

We have been mentioned in the following publications: Home and Garden Magazine, Texas Monthly, Crisscrossing Texas, Fiesta Magazine, Dallas Morning News, San Antonio Express News, ads in T.A.P.S. Ghost Hunting Magazine, and many others.

Alamo City Ghost Tours has led more ghost hunters and history lovers through the battlegrounds of The Alamo than anybody else in the world.

Our reputation comes from the quality of our tour as it is done today. Not from years of over exaggerating about an appearance on a TV show that was done several years ago. Our reputation comes from the tour you are getting ready to sign up for.
We are the only Ghost Tour in San Antonio that is known for the quality of our tour. If you pay attention to our competitors they want you to take their tour over 20 minutes of T V fame. There is a reason they only spent a few minutes on these programs that reason should be obvious.

Top 40 station Mix 96.1 featured us as part of the Russell Rush Haunted Tour http://www.mix961.com be sure to check out the videos of The Round Table discussion going on at the famous Menger Hotel about the hauntings in the area with respected San Antonio ghost hunters you will notice only one ghost tour was invited. We will let that fact speak for its self.

Country Station KJ 97 chose Alamo City Ghost Tours and Ripley's Haunted Adventure as the two best attractions in downtown San Antonio to feature for their Halloween Special.

Rock Station K ZEP 104.5 chose Alamo Ghost Hunt to feature on their morning program on Halloween

Hip Hop Station 98.5 The Beat. Chose J.R. the owner of The Original Alamo City Ghost Tours as the professional Ghost Hunter for their two hour call in special on Halloween. Stating that no other Ghost Hunter they have had on their show before could be put in J.R.'s class.

Do to our extensive knowledge of ghost hunting in general, several people who have been assistants with us on the ghost tours have gone on to be members of T. A. P.S., Ghost Hunters International, the United States Ghost Hunters Society and other established groups.

Here is what a local writer S. Malone had to say;
Alamo City Ghost Tours in San Antonio, TX is one of the most interesting tours I have taken and I have traveled worldwide. I am far from being a ghost buster or even a ghost lover, however after taking the tour, the library has seen its share of me researching hauntings throughout Bexar County. JR, the tour guide is not only a ghost hunter but a historian so I gained a lot of valuable information about San Antonio that is not common knowledge to a tourist or new resident.

The tour is available 7 nights a week and not only during the Halloween season. Cost is $15 for adults and $10 children 5-17 under 5 is free I admit the tour is worth it. It is a walking tour so I recommend wearing comfortable clothing and shoes and taking along a beverage of some sort (non-alcoholic, of course) The tour meets on the corner of Ripley's Believe It or Not and JR and his assistant pass out ghost hunting equipment to participants and explain the use, warnings, etc. Some of the stories you'll hear are about the Menger and Gunter Hotels both of which are allegedly haunted. I'd share the stories but that would be no fun if you ever make it to the tour. The tour also talks about the ghosts of the Alamo, the Governor's Palace, and other tales. The history in San Antonio is very rich so for those who do believe in ghosts, you will be excited to hear the stories. I know I was.

No matter where you live, each community has its own legends that may or may not be true and JR and Karen help to dispel some of the legends due to their knowledge of the area historically. My husband and I have been in San Antonio since January and the first "scary" thing we were told about from co-workers was about a railroad accident where ghosts of children remain. I plan to write that review later but although many residents dispute it is true, it makes a good story.

If ever in San Antonio and you have an interest or just curious about hauntings, this 1.5 hour walking tour is ideal for you. No reenactments, tricks or anything like that. Maybe you will see a ghost and maybe not but this is good entertainment for the evening aside from the usual tour of San Antonio, Alamo, Sea World and such.
