Dinner-and-a-movie? Predictable. Sacramento History Museum’s Ghost Tour? Unforgettably Sacramento. Stroll the dusky streets of Old Sac while spectral storytellers rewind the clock to a city bristling with Gold Rush danger—from riverboat blasts to clever con artists and hard bargains that ended… badly.
This one-hour walking tour starts at 101 I Street and is recommended for ages 8+, making it a versatile pick: brave kids, history nerds, and couples who like their romance with a shiver. The pacing is brisk, the tales are juicy, and the atmospherics (lanterns, wood planks, river air) do half the haunting.
