Evergreen at Dusk: Cemetery History Tours

Discover the shadows and secrets found within Evergreen Cemetery, one of the oldest public cemeteries in California, on a self-guided tour of the grounds.

Bring your curiosity (and maybe some flashlights) as you explore the final resting place of Santa Cruz's early settlers. The 45-minute tour is a self-driven adventure uncovering the stories and tombstones of the people who made Santa Cruz what it is today. Designed for daring, curious, and history-loving households this tour is great for all ages!

Registration is limited to one household per tour to ensure plenty of spacing as groups individually explore the cemetery. Each tour should take 30-45 minutes to complete. The time you select is when your group/household tour starts, we recommend arriving 5-10 minutes early to ensure you can begin right on time.

Dates and times vary. You will be able to select the date and time of your tour when purchasing tickets.
