Fun tour! Roy was AWESOME. Very accommodating to the needs of guests while already going above and beyond to ensure guests were protected throughout. Looking for a blend of mystery, history, and comedic relief...request Roy! Would highly recommend a a new way to see Nola.

Cemetary tour with Henry

Elizabeth_R, Mar 2026
We took a taxi to the meeting spot and there was roadwork being done so we got dropped off behind it. Tour guide brought us to the 1st Cemetary and was very unclear about what we were doing. Showed us a few sites……I had a really hard time understanding him. We stopped for a potty break that lasted a LONG time!!!! The last Cemetary was very dark we got off the bus he showed us a grave with a bunch of cockroaches on it….with his flashlight! And then said to go roam around ourselves. It was dark out, my sister doesn’t own a smart phone and my flashlight on my phone wouldn’t work What the HELL!!! Maybe suggest people bring a flashlight or provide them. So basically we just stood by the bus. When he returned he drove us back to the pickup point, which was full of homeless people Henry needs to talk clearer and try giving more info or stories on his tours. That is why I would NOT recommend this tour to anyone I think with a clearer more informative guide this would have been great

Terrible, will never book again!

Amber_S, Mar 2026
What experience, bus was full so we had no transportation even tho we booked on 28th.driver said trip was over booked and we could wait around another 2 hours. We ask for a refund. I was told I would receive the refund in 2 days.

Bare Minimum Tour

Laura_W, Jan 2026
The description said there would be narration on the bus and three cemetery visits, but the tour was one cemetery, a stop at a cafe, and a visit to a big tree. There was no narration on the bus, only music. At the cemetery, burial methods were described, but there was no information on historical figures buried. The voodoo religion, and its syncretic New Orleans version were described in a sensationalized way, with some missing/wrong facts. The tour guide was kind, but for the length of time they’d been doing tours, I was surprised they hadn’t done deeper research on topics discussed. My impression was the guide and/or company are catering to low information, inebriated tourists, Do not recommend.

To short - better ones out there

carrie_O, Jan 2026
The guide was enthusiastic - however, the experience took us to one cemetery and a fueling tree. It was pretty short. I was a bit disappointed. We walked away saying — that was it? I have done a different one here in New Orleans that was way better. I do not recommend this one.

We have gone on a couple...

Jean_C, Jan 2026
We have gone on a couple of tours and while the tour guide was great there wasn’t a lot of information about the history of the cemetery or about the paranormal. Also telling us to down load an app to do our investigation didn’t tell us how to use it. I have done others and they were more informative.

Graveyard Tours

Shellby_T, Aug 2025
Kendall was our tour guide. He made the tour exciting and shared his own personal experiences with the paranormal. I definitely ended the tour with goosebumps

Great Experience!

Brandy_R, Jul 2025
Roy was an amazing guide! He connected with each person and geared the tour to meet the needs, not just for our family, but the entire bus.

Best Cemetery Ghost Tour

Valarie_N, Jul 2025
I liked much of the historical information Henry talked about. This is one of tours that will be talked about.

Great time!

nicholas_S, Jul 2025
Roy was awesome! He kept thing light, interesting, and was very knowledgeable. Absolute legend! If you have issues with long walks, this is a perfect tour.

Ask for Henry

Daniel_C, Jun 2025
Henry was great, knowledgeable, and made the experience memorable. He had a great mix of knowledge in history, culture, and the day-to-day life of the city of New Orleans. Ask for Henry. You won't be disappointed.

Waste of time

Samantha_J, May 2025
For two hours I expected more I guess. We spent the same amount of time at our “restroom” break that we did at the cemetery at night. I felt like we drove around more than we spent time at locations. For two hours I expected more interaction with the sites we would be visiting. Just felt like a waste of time to me. Also if most of the time is spent in the bus driving to “locations” then it should be expressed that way on the website.

interesting ride

jannie_R, Jan 2025
its a good tour lots of historic information. and some scary pictures. The sticks were scary watching them move by themselves.

Tour guide Roy was the best hand down!!

Josh_F, Jan 2025
Roy was an amazing guide, his knowledge of Nola’s history and locations. Def recommend it, I was a skeptic and am still not convinced but the tour would be a good time for anyone, even if your just a history buff!

Great Tour In New Orleans 1/10/2025

Tina_H, Jan 2025
Thank you so much Kendall! We loved our tour and your stories were amazing. My sister actually captured a woman in white at the first cemetery we stopped at.

Nice cemetery tour...

LuisFilipe_D, Dec 2024
It was a nice cemetery tour but better to do it during the day. You'll see the graves better. It's not scary since the group is pretty large (around 25 people). The driver/guide was excellent and the place she stopped for a break, had excellent beignets. Not worth doing if you already visited a cemetery during the day.

The tour guide got into a...

Deborah_K, Nov 2024
The tour guide got into a screaming match with a local Cafe manager. It was so intense that people got off the bus to try and maintain the separation. People left the tour because the fighting over 10 minutes was too intense. Then the guide proceeded to tell us that he was disrespectfed at the Katrina memorial and on the bus

We deserve some kind of redo or refund

Justine_C, Nov 2024
Told to be at bar @10:30 , van didn’t leave until 1130pm. We were waiting around for the driver and it was packed in the bar nowhere to sit. Unfortunately we were in a rush since we started late and didn’t get to experience it fully . Wish we had a redo 😞

Light hearted ghost hunts and haunts.

Virginia_R, Oct 2024
Roy was super! He created quite the experience between his fun ghost stories, eerie music, and genuine interest in finding ghosts. He created community on our bus and everyone was laughing, chatting, and having a good time.

Great stories

Shameika_H, Oct 2024
Love kendell! He told the best stories! Also loved the beignets from morning call that he took us to..they were so much better then any other place we had..

The absolute worst tour in America.

Abdulkarim_A, Oct 2024
The worst tour I’ve ever been on. Extremely boring, long winded and distracted rambling is the best description of our guide. After 10 minutes at the grave, my group decided to just leave. Zero stars.

Seeing the cemetery

Carolyn_W, Sep 2024
Kendall was excited to share his experiences. We were a little disappointed there were only two cemeteries, but both were interesting. The nearly full moon made the tour more eerie. The people on our tour who were drinking alcohol probably enjoyed the tour much more than I did!

Super Cool

Kayleigh_I, Sep 2024
Fun tour and Henry was great. He was extremely knowledgeable and the cemeteries were super cool. I wish we’d gone into more than two cemeteries instead of driving past them, but good tour otherwise.

Spooky and fun

Marie_B, Aug 2024
Henry was so fun and informative on his city. He was full of knowledge and added a fun vibe for our tour. My son(17) thoroughly enjoyed it and that was my hope.
