Information and fun tour with Dane - Fun walking tour with Dane. Lots of history on the dark and spooky around NOLA.
Only scratches the surface on what all has happened there but so much packed into the 2nd hours, we will have to come back for another tour!
If you’re into the dark and spooky you’ll hear some familiar tales and plenty you haven’t.
Dane was great and learning about his experiences was a nice added bonus.

Tour was Tailored to Our Interests - We had an absolutely wonderful experience! Since it was just our group, AG took the time to ask what type of tour we wanted and tailored it perfectly to our interests. She masterfully combined tales of hauntings with fascinating historical insights, captivating even my skeptical son. As we strolled through the French Quarter, we were immersed in the city's rich history through stories that ranged from spooky to heartwarming, and every one of them was thoroughly engaging. It was a memorable and entertaining journey through the past!

History lesson - Not exactly haunted tour. More of
a history
lesson .Very informative but not what our group expected. We did not complete the tour
Reviews were fantastic, I do not want to bash the guide Tracy, but it was not what we expected after reading reviews before booking.
Tracy was very friendly but got very short. when someone remarked it was more a history lesson. Disappointed.

Disappointing Tour - This this tour with tour guide Mikko [spelling?] was, sad to say, disappointing. The tour lasted less time than it was supposed to, and we did not visit at least two of the major New Orleans haunted sites that the tour ad represented we would see and hear about. How do you go on a haunted tour and not visit the Lalaurie Mansion and the Old Ursuline Convent? We didn't on this tour. Perhaps it was because Mikko was clearly much more interested in talking after the tour to the pretty women from Santa Monica who were in our tour about a private tour, rather than leading the rest of the tour group to these two famous haunted sites. Like I said, disappointing, especially because we were really looking forward to this tour.
