Burlington Ghost Tours and Haunted Pub Crawls
A guided tour focused on Burlington’s haunted history and older downtown stories, which makes it a culturally significant heritage experience.
Burlington Ghost Tours and Haunted Pub Crawls offers a guided way to explore Burlington’s downtown nightlife through local ghost stories, historic streets, and pub stops. It’s a good fit for travelers who want a mix of storytelling and social atmosphere rather than a standard sightseeing tour, with the added appeal of seeing the Church Street area after dark. The experience is especially interesting for visitors who enjoy local lore, old buildings, and a lighter, entertainment-focused take on the city’s past.
Expert notes
- Wear comfortable walking shoes and dress for Vermont weather, especially in colder months.
