Charleston's Haunted Ghost Tour - Solo Smart Phone Guided Tour is a self-guided smartphone walk from WalknTours, booking from $6.75 per person at our August 3, 2026 check. That is the cheapest of the twelve Charleston listings we rechecked that day, where the cheapest guided walk is $19. There is no guide, no group and no departure time: you start when you choose and the route runs about an hour. The listing carried nine itinerary points at our July 30, 2026 check and flagged five of them pass-by, and it includes admission nowhere. It showed 4.7 from 68 Viator reviews on August 3, a small base we print only with its count and keep out of any Charleston ranking. The booking form offers one age band, adult from 18, and the listing is marked not wheelchair accessible.
| Detail | What the listing shows |
|---|---|
| Format | Self-guided smartphone tour with no live guide. The listing carries a private-tour flag, but that is a per-party billing setting rather than a private guide, and there is no host and no group (checked July 30, 2026). |
| From price | $6.75 per person (checked August 3, 2026), the cheapest of the twelve Charleston listings we rechecked that day, which run from $6.75 to $38. The cheapest guided walk among them is $19. |
| Duration | About 1 hour (checked August 3, 2026), joint-shortest of those twelve. |
| When | You start when you choose. No departure time is published, and none was captured at our July 30, 2026 check. |
| Route | Nine points at our July 30, 2026 check. Five are flagged pass-by: the Old Exchange and Provost Dungeon, Dock Street Theater in the listing's spelling, the Powder Magazine, Poogan's Porch and Blind Tiger Pub. The other four are St. Philip's Church, Circular Congregational Church, the Unitarian Church in Charleston and Twenty-one Magazine. |
| Admission | None is included anywhere on the route, and the listing says nothing about going inside any of the nine. Two of them, Twenty-one Magazine and Blind Tiger Pub, are working businesses with their own hours and door policies. |
| Meeting point | Not captured at our July 30, 2026 check, so we print none. |
| Ages | One band only, adult 18 to 120 (checked July 30, 2026). There is no child, youth or senior band, and booking is per party. |
| Accessibility | Marked NOT wheelchair accessible (checked July 30, 2026). |
| Cancellation | Free cancellation flagged at our August 3, 2026 check. The window was not captured, so we print none. |
| Rating | 4.7 from 68 Viator reviews (checked August 3, 2026). Sixty-eight is a small base, so the score never appears without its count, and this listing stays out of every Charleston ranking and review total. |
| Operator | WalknTours. We do not run this tour. |
Who it suits
People who want an hour of haunted Charleston on their own clock for under seven dollars and are content to read and listen rather than be told. Booking is per party, the only age band is adult from 18, and the app sets the pace, so you can stop for a drink or a photograph and pick the route up again. Skip it if you want a live guide, because there is not one. Skip it if you need step-free access, because the listing is marked not wheelchair accessible. And skip it if you expect a door to be opened for you, because no admission is included at any of the nine points. If a guide is the point, the cheapest guided walk among the twelve we rechecked on August 3, 2026 is the one-hour ghost tour at $19. For the wider city, see haunted places in Charleston.
