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!

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.

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

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.
Cindy_R, May 2026
Tour consisted of walking to different locations and standing on street while guide told ghost stories about past residents of homes. Did not enter any of the homes, and was challenging to hear the tour guide over the street noise and traffic.
Alissa_M, May 2026
Carolyn was amazing! So informative and didn't rush us through it. Enjoyed this! Would highly recommend
Adrienne_S, May 2026
My family (husband and daughters) and I absolutely enjoyed the ghost tour. I've been to NOLA several times and I learned stuff I never knew rom the tour. Our tour guide was great and my younger daughter was sad when the tour ended because she just loved the guide. I definitely recommend this tour, it was great.
Allison_F, May 2026
If you’re looking for a ghost experience, this isn’t it. More history than ghost. I suggest just doing the day tour, nights get busy and at some points, you can’t hear what the guide is saying (not their fault at all). The “inside a haunted location” wasn’t what I expected-basically sitting around a table with black lights listening to guide talk about history of voodoo. Our guide, Gomez, was great-funny and interactive.
katlund_i, May 2026
Gomez was a great tour guide! He really personalized our tour and made it very unique and fun. You can tell he loves his job.
Kathleen_M, Apr 2026
This was a great walking tour. We learned a lot about New Orleans haunted history. Wes was our guide and was very knowledgeable and friendly.
Michelle_M, Apr 2026
Not what we thought it was. Title misleading. We thought we be going into a haunted house to get some kind of paranormal experience. History is always great. But could have been more supernatural.
Sibi_R, Apr 2026
Lauren was an amazing guide. She was so knowledgeable and we learned so much interesting history! Highly recommend this tour!
Jean_S, Apr 2026
Orion is a great story teller. !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!°!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Vickie_M, Apr 2026
We had a great time and Orion was a fabulous guide who was informative and kept the group focused and treated everyone respectfully.
Brian_R, Apr 2026
It was fun hearing all the stories around town. Jenna did a great job as our tour guide. Learned a lot 🙂
Jennifer_P, Apr 2026
Orion was AMAZING!!!! He told us so many stories and the history that went along with the stories. He is so knowledgeable and fun, he kept us all entranced. Two hours flew by.
Debra_F, Apr 2026
Orion was great. He made us all laugh at the start with silly drawn pics for his rules. He gave us lots of information on the different haunted areas and also gave us tips on finding out more if we were interested.
Rebecca_P, Apr 2026
Very entertaining and spooky. Really enjoyed it, one of the best ghost tours I’ve been on (and I’ve been on many!) Orion was an awesome tour guide.
Adrienne_C, Apr 2026
Worth it! Definitely a fun and haunting experience . It was fun learning about the city’s history and ghostly tales
