The Burgwin-Wright House and Wilmington Water Tours are once again partnering to bring you their sold-out “A Colonial Apparition” river cruise, on which guests will hear the story of the snowy Christmas Eve night in the late 1800s when the Steamer Wilmington met the ghosts of two Scottish Highlanders killed during the American Revolution on the Cape Fear River.
Since it is a ghost story set at Christmas, this themed cruise will set sail for both a special Halloween evening on Friday, October 30 at 6pm and holiday cruises on Saturday, Dec. 5 at 1:30pm and 3:30pm. Be sure to grab a drink from the on-board bar before we dive into Wilmington's best ghost story! You can book your tickets by calling Wilmington Water Tours at 910-338-3134 or visiting their website at www.wilmingtonwatertours.net. We will see you on the river!
