About this tour
Discover Waco’s eerie side on a self-guided ghost walk that pairs local history with tales of lingering spirits. Starting at Magnolia Market Silos, the route leads you through historic and haunted sites, including the Suspension Bridge and historic buildings, with stories of the people and events that shaped the city, from its past to its tornado history.
Your smartphone guides the way through a walking tour app, so you can explore at your own pace and stop whenever a site catches your attention. The route takes more than an hour without stops, but there’s no need to rush: the tour is available anytime and never expires. This is an outdoor, phone-navigated experience rather than a tour with a human guide, and food and drinks are not included.

How this score is calculated
This score is based on one provider. Viator rates it 4.83 from 6 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 Waco
- 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 7.1.
