We absolutely loved this tour! Carolyn was an awesome storyteller and person! It was great learning all the lore about the area. I recommend doing this tour early in your trip to get acquainted with the area, meet people, and get recommendations for restaurants/ bars/ etc. Carolyn was super helpful with recommendations and giving us more information about the city as well! Would definitely recommend to a friend!

This tour was awesome! We learned a lot of rich NoLa history as we traveled bar to bar, starting with a complimentary drink at the meeting point on the pier!

Great Tour & Guide

Pub crawl

Danny_M, Apr 2026
Awesome tour. tour guide DJ was very informative and interactive. Had an awesome experience. Highly recommend!

Would not recommend.

Jen_L, Apr 2026
Before we even started I asked about where the walk would go and how far because I have a sore hip. They said just around here. Ok. I didn’t realize it was a track meet and I fell behind and she never even checked to make sure everyone was there before starting her talk. At one time 3 people were missing from the group. We went down some unlit walkways and being a woman it was a bit scary. At the first bar stop I again mentioned my hip and she said it was just two blocks over and 3 blocks up and we would be done. That was not the case. I left the tour early. Another thing was we had 10 minutes to grab a drink at very busy bars and she didn’t make sure the group was gathered to move on; hence leaving people behind.

Best guide ever

It's pretty cool. If your new to new Orleans go enjoy the tour and drink and have fun on it. It was a good time!

Disorganized

Melohart, Apr 2026
Carolyn was great funny, witty knowledgeable. However the tour organizers were unorganized and over 20 people on our tour. Never had more than 8 at any other tour. Expected more than just being told 10 minutes get a drink then next.

DJ is awesome

Brandy_J, Apr 2026
Thank you for the fun and entertaining experience DJ! We had a blast. He spoke truth, not lies and gave it to us straight. Very rare to come across someone like that.

Not very informative. She repeated several times, "if you want to see a ghost, drink more". Granted it was a pub crawl, but I felt the haunted part was left out.

Best tour ever!!!

Couple just trying to have fun

Alexis_G, Mar 2026
Very good information and good drink suggestions. He was nice and made sure everyone kept up. Attentive

Thank goodness for the alcohol!

Chaundra_C, Mar 2026
The tour its self had a lot of good stops at local bars we normally wouldn’t have stopped in! However the tour guide could have been better! He was a on the unprofessional side with his jokes that were offensive and most of the time I was trying to figure out if he was on drugs or just spoke 100 miles an hour. Icing on the cake he made very unprofessional comments about tipping in the group setting. Tours are usually my favorite thing to do when I travel to different cities and have been on countless ones and this one was my least favorite by far.

Stumbling into the Past

Dominique_M, Mar 2026
Caroline was awesome!! She made the tour fun with questions and getting everyone involved. She was uber knowledgeable about the history of NO. Highly recommended this tour.

A “Must Do”

Kellie_J, Mar 2026

Ashlyn_M, Mar 2026
Had difficulty at the beginning as one of the tour guides didn’t give clear instructions for meeting location and was 10 minutes later than he said he would be there. The other tour guide, Carolyn, was amazing and very informative. Would definitely recommend her as a tour guide!

Super Fun Bar Crawl

Asa_P, Mar 2026
DJ did an amazing job on our tour. He was very knowledgeable and had some great stories to tell along with drink suggestions at each of the bar stops. I enjoyed that this was less of a haunted stories tour and more of a true crime tour.

My husband and I have been on several tours. This one is our new favorite. DJ was a great guide. Entertaining!!

Stephanie_D, Mar 2026
There is a bit of walking and drinking. You will have a great time while learning about New orleans.
