5.00If you want a well thought out tour of haunted locations around New Orleans with great stories and historical facts, this is the tour is the one you want. Our guide (Tracy) was friendly, relatable, humorous, and creative. She made the experience everything it was.
Great fun!

5.00Thomas was a great tour guide with a wide knowledge of the history of New Orleans and is able to provide fun tidbits and recommendations about the French Quarter. He is also great at keeping the conversation going and is fun and jovial.

Disappointing Tour
Gary C,Nov 1, 2025
- Review from Viator
2.00This 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.
History lesson

3.00Not 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.
Information and fun tour with Dane

5.00Fun 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.
Awesome haunted tour
