Definitely a must do while staying in the French Quarter

Jamie was awesome!! Very informative and knowledgeable! Definitely recommend her as your guide! She took her time to explain the history at every stop. Made sure we had a drink and potty break!
Voodoo Tour
Vincent_M, Apr 2024
I learned a great deal about the realities of Voodoo and how it is a serious spiritual practice completely devoid of what the public has been led to believe by Hollywood. There were also exciting scary stories to keep us interested. The guide was an older man dressed in black who was very knowledegable and a pleasure to spend time with.
Engaging

Totally worth it!!
Camila_C, Mar 2024
I definitely recommend this tour!! Our tour guide, Carlos, was so knowledgeable, witty, and authentic. The places we visited was rich with historical value and had fascinating stories. Carlos also took us to different historical shops which added to the New Orleans tour experience. Carlos was great to talk to and very approachable to ask any questions. At the end of the tour he had a surprise for all of us. We were all pleasantly surprised and grateful for the wonderful way he ended the tour and for our surprise. We walked away feeling so connected to New Orleans and it's true heritage. Thank you again Carlos for a memorable and authentic experience!!

Wonderful evening
Denitsa_N, Mar 2024
It was really nice and the tour guide was so fresh and amusing. I wish we could entered some of the sites not just staying infront of them. However, the storytelling was amazing.

Great tour!
Becky_P, Feb 2024
Carlos is a great storyteller! His knowledge of the area and local history lead to an amazing tour. He made the tour a fun, personal experience.
David was a great tour guide
Wendy_R, Feb 2024
Our guide David is extremely knowledgeable, intelligent and entertaining. We thoroughly enjoyed the ghost and witch/voodoo history he shared with our group. I would recommend this tour to experience another side of New Orleans! It was fun to be out at night. I really enjoyed the ritual at the end of the tour and it left me feeling peaceful and empowered.
Awful
Karen_A, Feb 2024
The tour guide David was extremely rude. We left the tour at the second stop. It is a “family friendly “ per the description. David made us feel very uncomfortable having two 9 year old girls with us. Do not recommend at all
Response from Host, Mar 2024
Hi Karen, in light of your review, we have decided to limit the tour to children over 13 going forward. We had previously relied on describing the themes of our tours in the tour listing, and allowing parents to decide what is—or is not—appropriate subject matter for their child's level of maturity. We have come to realize, however, that it isn't always realistic to expect parents to review an entire listing before booking a tour, especially if the booking is made spontaneously. As of today assigned the tour a PG-13 rating, and we thank you for bringing this issue to our attention!
