Highlight of our New Orleans vacation! - My husband and I took a two-hour cemetery tour with Spooky Rob, and it was absolutely fantastic! We learned SO much, asked a million questions, and he was endlessly patient, knowledgeable, and clearly passionate about what he does. He was warm, engaging, and incredibly easy to talk to – never scripted or stiff. One of the most fun surprises was realizing we know some of the same people in Salem and New Orleans – such a small world! Meeting him and taking his tour was truly one of the highlights of our New Orleans vacation. If you’re looking for a cemetery tour that’s informative, thoughtful, and led by someone who genuinely loves sharing their knowledge, this is it. Highly recommend!

Shoutout to Spooky Rob! - Special shoutout to Spooky Rob!! 👻 He was absolutely an incredible tour guide we couldn’t have asked for a better person to share their stories! We found out that this was only his second cemetery tour and we all had our jaws hit the floor we thought he’d been doing it for years!!! This tour was full of great stories, we had an awesome group, and I hope to come back and do it again sometime soon!
