One route, one place

Where the stories live.

One route, one place. New Braunfels and the Devil's Backbone is where this tour runs, and it is the only place we run it. The stories are real, the sites are real, and the ridge earned its name long before anybody sold a tour on it.

Five hours after dark

How the ghost tour actually runs.

  1. 1

    Before the night

    We confirm the route, hold your stops, and text you the pickup window. Nothing for you to plan.

  2. 2

    We pick you up

    Your driver comes to your place around dusk, wherever you are staying near New Braunfels. The vehicle is yours for the whole block, and you can bring a cooler with your own refreshments for the ride.

  3. 3

    Into the dark

    Historic downtown first, then the haunted locations along the ridge, with guided narration the whole way. The stops are set and arranged, so you just show up and listen.

  4. 4

    Your guide, on demand

    They tell the stories between stops, know which spots land with the group, and if everyone wants they will run for food or hold the next stop so nobody stands around in the cold.

  5. 5

    A nightcap

    Most nights finish at the Devil's Backbone Tavern, the most haunted bar in Texas, before the ride home.

  6. 6

    Home safe

    Then we drive everybody home, which is the entire point of hiring us.

No surprises

What the ghost tour costs.

Two things set your price: which vehicle you choose, and how many of you are riding. Designated Driver, where we drive your own vehicle, is a flat rate and the most economical way to do the night. Premium and Luxury cost more because we are supplying the vehicle.

The ghost tour price

New Braunfels Ghost Tourfrom $16 pp

Five hour block, about 6 to 11 PM. Per person pricing falls as the group grows, and the vehicle class, from Designated Driver to Premium and Luxury, is picked when you book. Gas, tolls and bottled water are included.

What gets added

  • Texas sales tax 8.25 percent on premium and luxury bookings, because those are a taxable amusement service in Texas. Designated driver bookings are not taxed, because we are driving your own vehicle and that is transportation.
  • Gratuity 20 percent, added automatically at six guests or more, and it goes straight to your driver.
  • Extra hours billed at ninety percent of the hourly rate, so a longer day gets cheaper by the hour.
  • Add ons charcuterie from $35, refreshment cooler $25, decoration package $45.

Full payment is required to book a tour. There is no deposit, and your date is reserved the moment you pay.

Texas ghost tour questions

How much is the New Braunfels ghost tour?

From $16 per person at a full vehicle. Two things set the price: which vehicle you choose and how many of you are riding. Designated driver, where we drive your own vehicle, is a flat rate and the most economical option, and per person pricing falls as you fill the seats because the driver and vehicle cost the same either way. Texas sales tax of 8.25 percent applies to premium and luxury bookings but not to designated driver bookings, and a 20 percent gratuity is added automatically at six guests or more.

What time does the tour run?

After dark, a five hour block from about 6 to 11 PM. We collect you from your Airbnb around dusk and return you at the end of the night.

What is the minimum age?

Twelve and up, so the tour suits teenagers and families as well as adult groups. It is atmospheric rather than graphic.

Where does the tour go?

Historic New Braunfels sites, the haunted locations in between and a stop at the Devil's Backbone Tavern, the most haunted stretch of the Hill Country.

What is included?

Guided narration at every stop, a professional driver, door to door Airbnb pickup and return, and bottled water. You choose the vehicle class when you book.

Is there a minimum group size?

Two guests. Two to six travels in a premium SUV or van, and up to fourteen moves into the luxury Sprinter. Above fourteen we run multiple vehicles.

How far in advance should we book?

Forty eight hours minimum. October and Halloween weekends book out well ahead, so lock those dates as early as you can.
