Informative and an overall good experience.

Lisa was great! Our group consisted of one other family besides ours, a couple, and a mother/daughter. The stories were interesting and helped us understand New Orleans. While it was a walking tour and not a pub crawl, there was a rec to try the “purple drank” at Lafittes at the end of the tour. That drink packed a powerful punch. Book your ghost tour today!

Excellent tour!

This was a very informative and engaging tour. My husband and I have done these in various cities and have had mixed experiences. Our tour guide, Lisa, told great stories with the perfect of history, humor and just the right amount of mystery. Recommend!

Ghosts & Vampires with Logan

Our guide, Logan, was exceptional. The tour was about two hours long and covered some very notorious crimes and hauntings within NOLA. I am a historian but never disclose because I really like to hear the perspectives of others. Logan had passion, charisma, and was very accommodating to questions. Overall, the tour is absolutely worth the walk, and was conveniently offered midday right before our time to go to the airport!

Solid French Quarter History

We took the 8pm version of this tour, which was cool because it ended in the dark. The tour is mainly cool not because it is scary (even for kids), but because of the history that it provides and the ability to see the older parts of the French Quarter in twilight. Our guide, Martin, knew his stuff and had all of the customers in mind at all times. Recommended for the history buffs and those who want to learn more about the sordid history of the city. I definitely wanted to do some more reading when it was done!
