I went on the Haunted and True Crime Golf Cart Tour with Kayla, and it was an unforgettable experience. From start to finish, the tour was packed with fascinating true crime stories and some surprises (which I won’t spoil!). We explored two cemeteries, along with several historic homes and buildings around town each with its own eerie tale. I also enjoyed the golf cart tour. It was comfortable, less people, and far more engaging than a typical bus tour. Kayla was an incredible guide, bubbly, energetic, and easy to hear throughout. Her storytelling brought each location to life.

Friday 13ths Are My FAVORITE Days! My First In Charlotte So I Wanted It To Be Memorable!!! Too Bad FOR YOU There Are No More Friday 13th In 2025 Because It Made The True Crime/ Haunted Tour All The Better. The Team Is Incredible. Funny, Knowledgeable, Kind… Too Many Adjectives. The Haunted Tour Was So Fun! (except *spoiler* the damn clown.) Take The Tour… Take Your Children. Enjoy It. I Know We Did. Makes Us Want To Take The Historic Tour Since This One Was Do Dope! 100 Stars! Just Do IT!!!! SN: my daughter has never seen fireflies. She mentioned it on the tour and Husband Tour Guide (sorry I don’t remember his name) caught a few for her… right on the tour. Mommy Moment Memory 1000% So Thankful. (Sorry I did record THIS… bad girl… just call the cops *wink*)

I think this should be a tour everybody takes on their first time visiting Charlotte, and hopefully, on their first day. This was a 1.5 hour tour around the four wards with a live commentary. Tracy, our driver, was exceptional at sharing information, history, listening to our questions, and given us tips of what to do and where to go. She even shared that she wrote a book and the history behind it, go take a look at “Pennies from Vietnam: A Sister at Home, a Brother at War”.

This tour was such a great experience to learn about Charlotte. Our tour guide was very knowledgeable and gave us so much information county Details. This city is so gorgeous, green, clean, beautiful, and full of rich history. I recommend anybody who's new or wants to learn something new about this city.
