The Night is ruled by supernatural beings, but what about the Day? Most supernatural history tours are nighttime events. We believe the Day is as mesmerizing and fascinating as anything that happens in the darkest hours. Join us as we stroll the French Quarter in broad daylight exploring its darkest parts in a completely different light. We will stand in front of houses with macabre histories, “feel the air” of one of the most violent, dangerous streets to ever exist in the US, and find ourselves horrified by the actual history of disease, violence, and inhumanity in the Crescent City. DayWalkers we will be. Join us for your walk on the dark side in the sunlight!

What are people saying about New Orleans

Amy_K, Oct 2026

Kristi was an amazing guide and the food was perfection.

This is a great tour of the Quarter. Gumbo, Alligator Sausage, Pralines, praline cookies, Charbroiled oysters, shrimp po' boys, and muffaletta. Kristi did an awesome job with the pace of the tour, her clear, easy to hear explanations and passing on her love of the city that she calls home. I would absolutely pick this tour and the earlier the better so you can enjoy the other places she points out along the way.

New Orleans Airboat Ride

Kathy_M, Oct 2026

Great experience all...

Great experience all together. From the ride on the bus with Trina ,to checking in, to getting on the airboat with Steve. Steve made the boat ride fun as well as a learning experience due to his knowledge of the swamps and all the waterways through the area, including all of the animals that live there. We recommend this tour to anyone who wants a true Louisiana experience. We will treasure this memory!

New Orleans Swamp and Bayou Boat Tour with Transportation

Kara_C, Oct 2026

Fantastic experience (just brace yourself for raccoons)

This is a really fun experience, starting with the bus ride out to the swamp. Our driver Cornell was a cheerful character, filled with entertaining lore about the city. The swamp tour itself was very well organized and I’m sure you can’t go wrong with any of the captains, but Dustin was fantastic. I could not believe the creatures he was able to spot, including a baby tree frog clinging to tall sawgrass as we zipped by on our boat. (He turned around to get it and show it to all of us before returning it to its home.) He shared lots of info about the animals, birds and overall ecosystem. We saw plenty of gators even though the weather was chillier and not so conducive to gator spotting. One word of caution: if you don’t like raccoons, brace yourself because we saw dozens of them, including a bunch that were close enough to our boat that they seemed ready to jump in!

New Orleans City Tour: French Quarter, Garden District & Cemetery

Kimberly_M, Oct 2026

Definitely worth it

It was a great way to start my visit to NO. Gary was amazing, with so much history and humor on the tour. He answered so many questions and offered honest advice about restaurants and other things to do that I didn’t know about before. The tour was long but well worth it.

St. Louis Cemetery No. 1 Official Walking Tour

Amy_K, Oct 2026

The must-do cemetery tour in NOLA

This is a well run tour. We have done it twice in two years. Once just a couple and once with our teens and my 70+ year old parents. Both times we learned new things and saw parts of the cemetery that we hadn't seen before. I say this is one of the must do tours in NOLA. You won't regret the experience.

After Dark Haunted New Orleans City and Cemetery Bus Tour

Amy_K, Oct 2026

Take this tour. The best night tour in NOLA in my experience.

After a terrible experience on another tour the night before, I was crossing my fingers that this would be better. And it absolutely was. John? The guide was engaging, informative, funny and a wealth of information for this experience. I would recommend it and I would even take this tour again. This tour included a stop for beignets and drinks (and a bathroom) . It's cash only so come prepared, but worth it for a little snack.

New Orleans Swamp Tour Boat Adventure

Lisa_C, Oct 2026

Swamp Tour - Lots of alligators

We seen lots of alligators and Captain Jason provided a lot of information about the alligators, bayou, and the marsh. I would definitely recommend this tour but make sure you purchase with transportation. We called Uber to drop us off which was ok BUT we waited over an hour for an uber to pick us up from that location.

Lorett_N, Oct 2026

Larry and Ivan are a great team! Go see them..

Larry was a great tour guide. He is very knowledgeable about the French quarter and outlying areas. We saw parts of the quarter that we didn't know existed. The history of the French quarter is so diverse, every tour we take we learn something new. Thank you Larry for an informative tour.

Cemetery and Ghost BYOB Bus Tour in New Orleans

Jacqulyn_D, Oct 2026

Fantastic! Take the tour!

My husband and I did it. Our tour guide, Roy, was AWESOME! This was so informative and FUN! Highly Recommend! If you're on the fence about doing a tour... Do this one! The bus was a smaller white hotel like bus with AC (very nice compared to the walking tours)! It also allowed for a smaller group of about 20 people. And did I mention our guide Roy was AWESOME! He was professional, funny, respectful, courteous and family friendly (people on our bus had children with them). He provided a great tour with history, lure and information. 10 out of 10 Recommend!
