Freaky Foot Tours
Best Ghost Tour · Tucson, AZ
Old Tucson, after dark.
Freaky Foot Tours brought its research-driven storytelling from Flagstaff to Tucson in 2025, launching the Ghosts of Downtown Tucson Haunted History Tour. Departing nightly from Hotel Congress, expert guides walk guests through the darker corners of the city’s past.
The Tucson chapter runs on the same original-research approach that earned the mother-and-son-owned company its following in northern Arizona, and the public record shows it landed: 4.9 stars across 229 Google reviews, 4.8 on Viator, and a growing Tripadvisor record. In 2025 that record cleared our bar too: the Centurion Award for Best Ghost Tour in Tucson.
Tours depart nightly from 311 E Congress St. Book ahead in October, when the whole city wants a ghost story.

This is a dated award record, published by The Centurion Awards after Freaky Foot Tours passed the 2025 evaluation for its market and category. It wasn’t bought, voted on, or sponsored. Selection is free and can’t be paid for; winners pay a flat publishing fee only after the verdict, and it can’t change the verdict. The criteria are public, and only winners get published. If an award stops holding up, we revoke it publicly. Awards run one calendar year and renew only if the business still qualifies. For anything current, like hours or bookings, go straight to the business itself.
Disclosure. Freaky Foot Tours is Centurion co-founder Nick Jones’s company. It was evaluated by the same engine, on the same public evidence, as every other business in its market. We publish this so you don’t have to dig for it.
