About this tour

Step into Albuquerque’s Old Town after dark, where lantern-lit walkways and centuries of local lore set the scene for an evening of ghost stories. This outdoor Albuquerque Old Town Ghost Tour traces more than 300 years of history through tales of battles, murders, hangings, hidden cemeteries, and reported hauntings.

Follow a local guide on a leisurely route of about 1 mile over 100 minutes. Along the way, hear legends, learn about evidence gathered by early investigators, and decide for yourself what might linger in Old Town. The tour generally stays outside historic buildings, sharing their stories from the walkways. A thermometer and EMF equipment are available to use, and you’ll receive a map, postcard, and bottled water. Bring a camera in case you spot something worth capturing.

The walk has no hills or stairs and includes opportunities to sit. It runs in all weather, so dress for the conditions and wear comfortable shoes. Meet at the ticket window in Plaza don Luis, then discover why the Albuquerque Old Town Ghost Tour has drawn curious visitors since 2001.

How this score is calculated

This score is based on one provider. Viator rates it 4.88 from 961 reviews. We place that rating among all Viator ratings and weight it by its review count. If the tour is found on another provider later, both ratings are combined.

How the score works and rating distribution in Albuquerque
  • Each provider rating is turned into a percentile: the share of that provider's ratings it beats, weighted by review counts.
  • Listings on different providers are combined in proportion to their review counts.
  • Tours with few reviews are pulled toward the average until more reviews come in, so a handful of perfect reviews can't top the list.
  • The result is shown from 0 to 10: this tour scores 8.1. Top 14% in Albuquerque means it ranks in the top 14% of tours in Albuquerque by this score.
