Britney was an amazing tour guide! Very knowledgeable and was super welcoming to our haunted friend, Helen. All the staff here are wonderful, thank you for a great time!
Such a cool experience, getting to walk the building, learn the history, and have a great spooky time. Our guide was amazingly knowledgeable, giving history and stories of the Shaker's 100 plus years. The final leg of the tour, we had a number of odd happenings that definitely made our group wonder if we didn't have a ghostly presence along for the journey. Definitely memorable. 10 out of 10.
This is my second time coming to Shakers cigar bar. The first time was the 2.0 tour where we got to use dousing rods. This time was just the stories and the history and I brought my 14-year-old ghost hunting son and his friend. They both appreciated the history of the building and the stories and being able to use the dousing rods for a limited time. Can't wait to go back for a 2.0 with my 14-year-old maybe spend the night with all his gear.
Absolutely brilliant exciting tour loved cigar afterwards great place with lots of dark history our guide ghost tour was brilliant night recommend this tour and shakers bar is a must when visiting Milwaukee! Love Jon & Caron United Kingdom 😎
Miranda did an amazing job on the Cream City Cannibal tour. She was very knowledgeable and full of information. She didn't just point at something and say 'this is where X happened.' She dove into the who, what, where and when of all the circumstances around it. She even tried to give some insight into the 'why' by discussing information derived from Jeff's interviews. It was pretty cool to get to see and sit in the chair that Jeff used when frequenting the establishment. Even got to enjoy the same drink that he was said to order. I highly recommend this tour if you're even remotely interested in the events that took place here. It was nice to listen to Miranda as she explained things and separated fact from fiction. Give this tour a try. You won't be disappointed. And if you get Miranda as your guide, that's an added bonus.
