We booked and nobody was...

Jarrod_R, Mar 2026
We booked and nobody was there. Multiple families were also waiting for the tour as well. We were really excited to go on the tour and sounded really fun.

Canceled after waiting for 15 minutes

Lauren_M, Feb 2026
They canceled on us after we waited at the location for 15 minutes. They said we should’ve been informed earlier but I only got a confirmation notification not cancelation. We never got the tour which was disappointing to my kids. I was issued a refund but still very disappointing.

Too crowded to find tour guide

Ashley_E, Feb 2026
They should have NEVER offered a tour in the middle of the day on Mardi Gras. We got there 20 minutes early. The streets were packed. They said meet on the sidewalk outside. People EVWRYWHERE. We messaged the company to see how we’d actually find a guide in the crowded area. They messaged and said the guide would have on a badge and be by a gate of a courtyard attached to the bar. No guide. Nothing but patrons in and out of the courtyard. So a complete waste of money as the tour was non refundable if we cancelled but there WASNT a tour at all. Nobody was there.

Scam

Vivian_H, Sep 2025
Waited well over 30 minutes for the tour guide and they never showed. Then the company could not be reached to resolve the matter.

FUN!

Janet_A, Sep 2023

Id love to hang out with cody. Again

Valencia_S, Dec 2021
Cody was awesome and kool af. Hes very knowledgeable bout the history of new Orleans. I camt wait to come back. And do another tour

Did not live up to its description

Jennifer_G, Feb 2020
The tour leader seemed nice, but this tour did not live up to its description. There was nothing on voodoo, and the EM meter was given to one person to carry and never discussed or described (was basically a gimmick). I would have liked to learn much more.

Not so paranormal

Shayla_H, Feb 2020
Our guide was friendly, I could clearly hear and understand him, and I enjoyed what and how he shared. I just felt like it was more of a general history tour and pub crawl rather than the ghost tour I was expecting.

From $35.00
