We had an amazing time on the Haunted Pub Tour with Jarrod. My daughter and her boyfriend were visiting us from New York and ghosts have always been my daughter and my wife's thing. Jarrod was welcoming from the start. He is extremely knowledgeable. We had an incredible night learning about the fascinating history of these locations and the spirits that come with them. 100% would recommend this tour to anyone who has an interest; not only in the paranormal, but also the darker history of some of Phoenix's pubs. We cannot wait to book another tour in another place! Thank you Jarrod, you made a really special visit even more fantastic!

We had a small group of 4 people and were picked up promptly at our designated area for our evening tour. Comfortable air conditioned vehicle that transported us to all of the locations. Jerry is an enthusiastic local with years of experience who could not have made the tour better or more interesting. He was very informative and respectful and the locations had great stories with some spooky elements. Overall it was one of the best tours I've ever been on and I would love to go back for his haunted pub tour in the future. You will not be disappointed!

Had a really great tour of three "haunted pubs" in downtown Phoenix! Jarrod is not only an amazing tour guide, but also a very informed historian! He told about real events that took place in the past on the very spot they occured! Not only is he extremely knowledgeable, but he delivers each story with such believable passion!
