Ghost tours run after dark and the good ones sell out on weekends. Check the widget above for what is actually running while you are in Alexandria.
Most of these can be cancelled up to 24 hours before, so booking early costs nothing and holding out costs you the good guide.
This one meets at Meet your guide outside Gadsby's Tavern. Look for a guide wearing a black US Ghost Adventures t-shirt and carrying a lantern for easy. Once the group is assembled, everyone will head inside together.
You will be walking on old, uneven, badly lit ground for an hour or more. It is the advice every operator gives and most visitors ignore.

A port older than the capital
Old Town is eighteenth-century and forty minutes from the Capitol.
Alexandria was a working tobacco port before Washington DC existed, and Old Town's grid and much of its building stock are eighteenth-century. That is the ground a ghost tour walks, and it is a genuinely colonial streetscape rather than a reconstruction.
This is the most accessible colonial ghost walk in the country for anyone already in Washington - a Metro ride rather than a trip. That, more than the depth of the field, is why it is worth an evening.
Not much is bookable. Read the review depth on what is, and treat the shallow sample as unproven rather than weak. Alexandria also sits close enough to Washington that most visitors are here for a few hours rather than a stay, so the tours are built short and start early enough to get you back on the Metro. That is a genuine convenience and it is also a constraint on how much ground any of them cover.
Alexandria's 2 bookable tours start at $27 and run to $30, against a national ghost-tour median of $30 measured across 208 products. That puts Alexandria squarely in the typical band. The middle half of all ghost tours runs $25 to $39.25, this city sits inside it, and price is therefore not the variable worth optimising here. With only 2 products there is no comparison to make, and the review depth on the card is the only signal worth reading. Treat a thin sample as unproven rather than poor. We feature it on price and review depth rather than on quoted reviews - GetYourGuide has not surfaced review prose for this product, and we would rather say so than show you another tour's reviews under its name.
