    Most visitors rave about the knowledgeable guides here, particularly mentioning Zach's enthusiasm and deep understanding of Hawaiian royal history and local ghost lore. People appreciate that the tours blend legitimate historical context with spooky stories, creating an experience that's both educational and entertaining. The guides come across as respectful and passionate, and several reviewers mention unexplained experiences during their walks through Kailua-Kona's historic areas. A few travelers felt the experience leaned more heavily into history than spine-tingling ghost stories, which might disappoint those expecting a traditional haunted attraction vibe. There's also one concerning mention of a permanently closed location, though the majority of recent reviews describe successful, enjoyable tours with various guides. The vortex tours with Zake get special praise for their spiritual angle and access to unique spots. Overall, if you're interested in Hawaiian history with a supernatural twist and don't mind a walking tour format, this seems like a solid evening activity that most people genuinely enjoy.
