Uma’s a Real One!

Uma is so great! Charismatic and knowledgeable and her tour was a wonderful way to wrap up an evening. Looking forward to coming back with my partner and doing it again!

Great history with fun details

I signed up for this tour because it didn’t has a ghost focus… but apparently many others are looking for that, so the guide did throw in a couple of spooky tidbits. Our guide was very thorough and I loved her detailed story telling! The only improvements I could say are: 1. Extend the tour to 2 hours 2. Add a bathroom break in the middle 3. End the tour in the place you started - as a solo female traveler I didn’t like just being left at Jackson square. Otherwise- fantastic tour!

Luis was witty and a lot...

Luis was witty and a lot of fun. This tour covers some people and places that others don't. We had a great time.

Late night storytelling 👍

Our guide was very knowledgeable. She had a great sense of the history behind her storytelling My only feedback would be that they should indicate that the tour would be 2 hours, not an hour and a half. Otherwise I will absolutely recommend this tour.
