We were there 15 minutes early and waited and waited and never found our tour. So we didn’t get to experience it and the people we called through Viator were unable to reach the operators to get us help. We are now waiting to see if we get a refund.

I have searched for an Emily and any guests that weren’t in attendance for The Dark Side Tour. There are none on our reservation list. Evidently you have confused the tour names and companies. I have worked with Viator since 2014 and they would have called and also sent me an email reference number with a complaint ticket if a guest was lost.
Also, our tours run back to back. The instructions and terms and conditions state the phone number and email address to contact us directly. So if you had booked a tour with us all this information would have been available to you along with a way to text & email directly using the Viator site.
Kind Regards

Cidy had some great fun facts. It's a good family friendly tour that you can bring kids 10 and up to. It's also a good tour just to go with friends

Vastly disappointed is an understatement Tour guide was 15 minutes late leaving us wondering if he was going to even show up .Arrived with no apology and then went straight to bathroom. Tour started 20 minutes late with 2 hour tour ending 1 hour later. Content on the dark history of New Orleans was very limited. .More on celebrities shows and filming sites than on the dark side of New Orleans. Been on several New Orleans Tours before. Loved them all. Worst tour I have ever been on anywhere. Money would have been better spent on a cheesy T-shirt.

Absolutely enjoyed the stories being told of chilling events that took place many years ago. Physically being present while listening to the story really makes you appreciate the stories even more.
