    This was a wonderful walk through downtown flagstaff with a guide who had actually met many of the artists and was able to pass on many insights to The Who what and when of each mural. We highly recommend this little walk through time.

    Before You Book

    Quick answers

    How do I book a Freaky Foot Tours walking tour?

    Book online through our secure Peek booking calendar (every tour page has a Book Now button), or call or text us at (928) 224-0518. Booking a few days ahead is recommended: tours are small groups, Friday and Saturday departures regularly sell out, and October is our busiest month of the year.

    What is the cancellation policy?

    Full refund when you cancel 24 or more hours before the tour; no refund under 24 hours. Tours run rain, snow or starlight; if we ever cancel a departure, you get a full refund or a free rebooking, your choice.

    Are Freaky Foot Tours ghost tours kid-friendly?

    Our regular ghost and history tours are all-ages: the stories are true history told honestly, not jump scares, and kids 8 to 12 usually love them. We recommend 13+ for the darkest material on the ghost tours. Two experiences are adults-only: Mountain Town of Madness in Flagstaff is 18+, and the private Spirits With The Spirits pub crawl is 21+.

    What time does the Flagstaff ghost tour start and where does it meet?

    The Original Flagstaff Ghost Tour meets at Wheeler Park, 212 W Aspen Ave, near City Hall, and departs nightly at 7 PM, with a second 8 PM departure on Fridays and Saturdays. Arrive 15 minutes early to check in with your guide. The tour runs 75 minutes and covers about one mile of downtown Flagstaff sidewalks.

    How much does the Flagstaff ghost tour cost?

    Adults $29, students $25 and children $22 for the 75-minute Original Flagstaff Ghost Tour. The adults-only Mountain Town of Madness is $39 for adults and $35 for students. The Route 66 Centennial Walking Tour and the Flagstaff Mural Tour are each $29 for adults, with student and child rates on both. Full refund when you cancel 24 or more hours before the tour; no refund under 24 hours.

    Is there an adults-only ghost tour in Flagstaff?

    Yes, and ours came first: Mountain Town of Madness is the original adults-only (18+) haunted tour of downtown Flagstaff, running Friday and Saturday nights at 9 PM from Wheeler Park. It covers the true-crime cases and after-dark history we leave off the family tour.
