Winchester Mystery House - Historical place museum in San Jose - 525 S Winchester Blvd, USA

The Winchester Mystery House tour is amazing and so completely worth visiting! Our guide, Kai, was knowledgeable, captivating, and friendly. He shared facts, not fiction, while sharing the story of Sara Winchester's life. The house is a piece of fascinating, historic architecture, full of interesting tales and visuals. I would totally take this tour again, it was so fascinating I am sure I missed things because I was so enthralled! The gardens are beautiful and so peaceful to stroll through. We went on the regular tour but will definitely go back for the Candlelight tour! Oh! And the Menagerie of Oddities & Curiosities Market that was taking place was super rad with local artisans and artists, can't wait to go back!

I love this place. It's been twenty plus years since I've been over here so I thought I should check it out again. It's amazing how much you forget over the years. It's just a neat old quirky house. The story behind it really does enhance the experience. We only did the house tour because it was raining. Like I already said, I loved it. The guide was great and there was plenty to see. Would recommend. Not a lot of pics because I was too busy looking with my eyes.

Well worth a trip to see the kooky Winchester mansion. It's well furnished, and the Christmas decorations were fun and fitting in the house. The multiple sets of stairs on the standard tour are worth consideration if you're going with children, seniors, or mobility restricted people. The tour is about a mile of walking. They do offer ADA tours as well.

Our tour guide Will was the best! He was the kindest most patient with our teen. If you come to San Francisco is a must! The history is very well told and the house in itself is amazing. So beautiful, excellent preserved so mysterious and a mischievous. We paid 45 with taxes and the tour was about 1 hour 15. We bought the tickets in advance, and didn’t wait at all. IS A MUST!

Interesting tour as we did both the Mansion tour and the Walk with Spirits tour. Both tours were kind of fast paced. Mansion tour was with a small group and very good but fast paced. Walk with the Spirits tour had about 15+ people. Was a little less enjoyable as we had some talkers and laggers in the group but not the fault of our guide who did a great job.

Definitely a must see in San Jose, I attended a walk with the spirits tour. It lasted around 1 hour, or guide Katy was kind and very informative. The tour takes you through a lot of the house and there’s tight spots where you have to duck and wear a hard hat. So if you have mobility issues it could be a little challenging. Theres also stairs to climb. But overall a great tour. My group had a lot of fun!

I did the house tour and it was amazing! The tour was designed well and the tour guide was friendly and professional. I love how she shared new findings in the house. Also prior to arrival I needed to switch to a different tour and the admin person for the email inbox was very accommodating. I would come back again!

My first time visiting Winchester Mystery Mansion. Decided to make it a day trip with cousins. Bought tickets online and when you purchase 1 tour, the second tour is given at a discount. It was a fun experience. Our first tour was The Mansion Tour and our guide was Jim. He was very funny and excellent with the kids during the tour. Our second tour was Walking With The Spirits Tour and our guide was Katy. This was a more behind the scenes tour in areas where you can tell had more damage, possibly from earthquake. She was a great guide as well. The entire estate was very nice to walk through, including the garden. Lots of tents with trinkets to buy, tarot card readers, crystals, clothing, soaps you name it. A nice surprise that they sold food, snacks, desserts, soft drinks, liquor and gift shop was amazing. Before you enter the tour, you get a group picture. You must experience this at least once. All the staff was friendly, including nice gentlemen at the snack bar.
