The tour filled a portion of my growing New Orleans knowledge that other tours did not. I didn't expect that the tour did not attempt to scare, only in the sense that the presented facts were alarming. After understanding voodoo, it seems at odds with the other two subjects because it isn't generally scary at all. Thus, the juxtaposition of the subject matter did not work well with me.

Very informative and friendly. Excellent choice of things to experience in the Big Easy. Our guide was exceptionally knowledgeable and hasty to share. Questions were always answered.

Our tour guide, The New Orleans Nun, was just amazing. Her extensive knowledge and enthusiasm made this tour one of the best that I am been on during any of my travels. Originally, we booked the smaller, VIP tour but we were placed in this group, probably due to lack of interest in the smaller groups. It was meant to be because we could not imagine having anyone else guide this tour of NOLA and its history with anyone else!

Booked our tour night before. Feel ghost tour is a must for 8pm personally to get the dark feels and glad I did! Tony was our tour guide and he was fabulous! He clearly had a lot of love and knowledge for the topics. Great story teller! I'm a buff with haunted stuff, but still learned things on this tour. Liked the pitstop at Henry's bar for the Ghostbuster drink. Would recommend to friends for sure.

We were not impressed with this tour. It lasted for 90 minutes but 20 minutes it of was a break at a bar to have a drink. It was not that interesting. Our tour guide told stories about people that had died in a hotel or other building. Don't waste your time or money.

The guide Graham was very knowledgeable and friendly and funny. It was a great way to learn about Nre Orleans history for someone who'd never been here before. I recommend it for anyone.

It was a really enjoyable storytelling tour from start to finish. I had read a few previous reviews mentioning that there was no entry or admission into specific locations, but that was actually clearly stated in the “what’s not included” section. This type of tour is meant to be immersive through storytelling rather than physically going inside buildings. I’ve done a similar tour in Salem, MA, and this follows the same concept—walking through historic areas while the guide brings the stories, characters, and atmosphere to life. If you go in with that expectation, it really delivers. What truly made the experience stand out was Morgan (the Nun). She was absolutely fantastic—engaging, expressive, and clearly very passionate about what she does. Her storytelling was vivid and captivating, and she had a great ability to balance historical detail with just the right amount of drama and humor. She stayed in character the entire time, which made the experience feel memorable rather than just informational. Morgan also did a great job interacting with the group, keeping everyone interested and involved. You could tell she put real effort into creating an atmosphere, not just reciting facts. Overall, it was a great experience, and I would definitely recommend it—especially if you appreciate good storytelling and a guide who truly brings the tour to life.
