“See what people are saying about the historic Kansas State Penitentiary Tours.”
Love this tour!
Love this tour!
5 Star I was very pleased with the 3pm tour of the prison that I had attended this past Saturday (10/12/2024). Both of our tour guides did an amazing job showing us around while sharing their experiences “doing time” on the other side of the bars. I will definitely be back.

Tourists listen to one of our many guides explain the proximity of an active prison.
5 Star Prison guard guides were amazing! It’s interesting to be on the inside without being “on the inside.” I think it should be a requirement for all in juvenile detention centers, judge orders, or parents dealing with troubled teens – Julie Sanchez
Tourists experiencing the “Chow Hall”
I’m keeping my fingers crossed that you will be opening up the prison for paranormal investigations. As a psychic medium, I get real excited about interacting with prisoners from the past. Only thing missing from the tour is the gallows. Bring back the gallows and you folks will have full house of investigators chomping at the bit to attend. 🙂
Many blessings and thanks from Becky Lee Blackburn, Salt City Psychic, Hutchinson, Kansas.
Great tour.
5 Star Great tour! All three of our guides were knowledgeable and friendly, answering all of our questions. They were also very insightful and relayed a lot of interesting stories.
Thanks a ton

Great Time!
5 Star We had an absolutely great time on the tour! Being only 4 weeks in, we thought it was great. I really liked hearing about the history of the prison as well as the personal stories. Hearing more stories about the more infamous inmates would have been enjoyable – Richard Grissom, John Robinson, etc. For those of us who are from KC, we know those stories well (Robinson was in my neighborhood!). Thank you again – we donated to the tips because we wanted to show our appreciation for all the great volunteers! -Sherri
LOVED IT!
We did the tour and LOVED it! I loved the stories the tour guides told and it was neat to hear how they did things in prison. I would for sure do this tour again!!! – Stephanie
