Unsafe Tour Meeting Area

Went to scope out meeting place prior to event starting time to familiarize ourselves with the area. We were met with large fences due to construction in the area and homeless people that were harassing myself and my daughter. The fences limited room to maneuver away from the men. We did not feel safe to come back to the area after dark to join our tour. We tried to contact Viator support and the contact your tour guide to cancel and were only able to reach an automated system that gave no help. We asked patrons at local businesses and they said that since the construction started it was a terrible area to be in and two women should not be there alone. They should have moved the tour to a safer meeting place. I hate to lose the money I paid for the tour, but my safety means more to me.

Roy was amazing! Team blue bus!

Roy was incredible!! He was funny, knowledgeable and made the entire experience so much fun. He had our backs and held people accountable for being disruptive so we could enjoy the experience to the fullest. 10/10 experience & would definitely do it again!

Super Fun Night-Time Cemetery Tour in New Orleans

I brought a group of 19 people in New Orleans for a business meeting on this tour and we had a great experience. Our tour guide, Henri, was knowledgeable and fun -- and was very patient with my group as we were running late from our dinner and didn't arrive until the bus was about to leave. We also liked the stop in between cemeteries for a bathroom and beverage break. We really appreciated Henri and our entire tour was amazing!
