Orion was fantastic and the tour was great. This was such a great experience. We even learned that the hotel we were staying in was haunted. This is a must do when going to New Orleans!!!

Orion gave a very fun, interesting, informative and tailored presentation about New Orleans as we walked and learned about this beautiful coty

Pinky was an exceptional storyteller! I’ve been on many ghost tours in town, but this was the very best! We got to go inside a haunted building, made fun stops throughout the city, and stopped for a drink. I would highly recommend this tour!

Great - and disturbing - history shared during this tour. Our guide, Lauren, was entertaining and informative.
Matthew_C, Aug 2026
Tour was great! Tour guide was very knowledgeable and energetic. The lady in the dress at the end was honestly the best part of our trip. Should have danced with her, got scared.
Juliette_M, Aug 2026
Our tour guide Sean was both extremely funny and historically accurate. He refused to dress things up purely for show and instead wove humor into a realistic explanation of events.
Lindsay_H, Jul 2026
Gomez was a great tour leader! Very knowledgeable and we loved being a part of his group! We loved learning about the history of the city, as well as some spooky tales!
Elora_D, Jul 2026
Great stories from Jenna, and a few haunted experiences. Graba drink on the way at a local favorite spot.
Carolyn_M, Jul 2026
I loved how all the tours I took all interconnected the history of New Orleans.
.. Also leaned how strange Nicholas Cage is being down there and I feel bad for the Big Easy. Honestly I think they'd rather have Shia LaBeouf.

This was not my first Ghost Tour here in New Orleans. I'm local. I brought 7 others with me for the Birthday week of activities. First of all, there were too many people on the type. There were at least 20 people in the group. Secondly, we didn't go to all of the stops. I'm not sure if we made it to the Place D'Armes, and I know for certain, we didn't make it to the Blacksmith Shop. We went the the NOT AIRCONDITIONED, haunted room, where she told us the story and solicited for gratuities. Then she told us it was the end of the tour. The website says we end up back at the start of the tour; Jackson Square. I said something like, "That's it?" Her response was, "Yeah, Babe, you've been with me for ninety minutes." Then she pointed the direction to the square.
Unfortunately, someone fell I'll, due to the heat, while on tour and we waited until they decided not to continue to move on. She didn't seem to have any compassion for this person and was eager to move on. Maybe this is why she skippedtheBlacksmith Shop

Scott did a great job! I have done many ghost tours in the past and always love hearing different stories and learning new things with different guides, and Scott did not disappoint! He also showed us some of his personal ghost pictures at the end of the tour that he had received from other guests and they were amazing!
Tamera_F, Jul 2026
We learned so much about the colorful, dark history of this wonderful town. Orion was engaging and entertaining. He has the knowledge and passion that makes him a great story teller!
Brian_P, Jul 2026
Tour provides a lot of information about the French Quarter. The walking was not a lot and there are several stops along the way.
Manar_D, Jul 2026
We had an amazing experience. We learned about the history, culture and the supernatural all at once through our experienced tour guide Orion. He is a fantastic storyteller and very knowledgeable about the historical aspects of the city. We really appreciated his style of storytelling and his candor.
Danielle_S, Jul 2026
Our tour guide D.J is top notch and makes this whole experience so much fun and enjoyable. 10/10 recommend him for this tour.
Lori_H, Jul 2026
It is a massive amount of walking and listening to the tour guide. Interaction is very minimal. There is a break where you can get beverages and use the rest rooms, which was appreciated.
Richard_S, Jul 2026
Our tour guide was very informative about the history and events that lead into the ghost sitings and even showed us photographic proof of ghost.
Tiffany_W, Jul 2026
Jenna was amazing! Absolutely loved our tour with her. I would definitely request her. She was very knowledgeable and kept you engaged in the entire tour!
Maria_G, Jun 2026
Grab a drink of your choice at the CVS before you check in. Go to the restroom before the tour begins.
Our tour guide was Pinky. She was an excellent story teller. Her enthusiasm and amazing personality kept us entertained throughout our tour.
We were a group of eleven (ages ranging from 12-61). Every person in our group said the tour was worth the purchase. Great way to end our time in New Orleans! Thanks Pinky and team.
MelissaJ_C, Jun 2026
Fun informative tour. Lauren was a great personality for this adventure. Be prepared for the Louisiana heat even in the evening, so bring a bottle of water with you! Definitely worth the experience and have your cameras ready!
Zadiya_H, Jun 2026
Very educational & knowledge about New Orleans history & myths. . My tour guide was a short Caucasian woman (forgot name) We loved her energy & vibe as a tour guide

Ghost tour with Jenna was a fun, informative, and creepy experience! I had a lot of fun walking the french quarter.
ChristineEmadi, Jun 2026
Tour guide was very informative and interesting - she was a great storyteller. The haunted room was a let down, nothing happened and nothing to see. But my niece and sister enjoyed it all.
Stefanie_P, Jun 2026
Orion was a great tour guide. I appreciate his empathy and awareness of his neighbors. Chose this tour for the entry into the haunted location hoping that meant an AC break, which is exactly what it is. The stories are very good though Orion speaks very quickly so don’t sneeze or you’ll miss something!
Paul_W, Jun 2026
This was a great walking tour. You get the stories, the legends and creeps but not anywhere to sit and rest so be ready. It was fun and ended faster than I thought because we had so much fun with Scott!
Abby_S, Jun 2026
Pinky was awesome and so informative!! She took time to answer any questions we had and made the night awesome!
Delaney_R, May 2026
This was a little different than I was expecting. Definitely more of a historical tour which is fine, just not what we booked. I appreciated our tour guide for keeping everything factual and not over embellishing any of the stories. He was great and I enjoyed his personality. However it wasn’t really the spooky vibe we were hoping to experience.
Katy_C, May 2026
We had a great time hearing old tales of the french quarter with Pinky our tour guide. It was a lovely evening walk with lots of history. We had fun hearing stories and walking the famed streets of NOLA. While not a haunted jump scare tour we did still enjoy the walk and stories being told.
