Full description

Experience one of the most haunted cities in America on a walking tour that explores the Big Easy’s infamous dark side. Explore and investigate areas like the French Quarter with paranormal equipment alongside licensed tour guides, historians, and professional storytellers.

At the start of your tour, your guide will provide an EMF meter or ghost/paranormal detector during the tour. Visit over 15 different locations, including St. Louis Cathedral, St. Anthony's Garden, and The Cabildo, the former seat of the colonial government.

Discover locations of unsolved murders and suicides and get the facts about real, documented reports of vampires and ghosts. See where vampires held their victims and learn about the traditional burial practices of New Orleans.

Go to The Presbytere to admire one of the best examples of colonial Spanish architecture, see the Old Ursuline Convent, Jackson Square, and the Sultan's Palace, where legend has it a mass murder took place. Stop at many of the National Historic Landmarks that the city has to offer.

See the most haunted house in New Orleans at the Lalaurie Mansion and learn about the so-called Mistress of Death. As you roam the streets of the French Quarter and other areas, make stops along the way to optionally buy drinks to enjoy during the tour (cost not included).

Our tour guide was a native of New Orleans and I believe this really helps with the tour authenticity. Our guide was full of “fun facts” and the walk part of the tour didn’t feel like walking because he had something exciting to share every other block! Definitely recommend!

The information given on this tour was phenomenal. A lot to learn in what felt like a short period of time. I enjoyed the ghost stories as well. I appreciated not being rushed and being allowed to stop to grab drinks. The guide encouraged everyone to ask questions and thus blew me away because the other tours that I attended in New Orleans where not like this the guides made me feel rushed and we were not allowed to speak nor have drinks. You read that right! The guide actually told us we weren’t allowed to talk or ask questions. After going on the tours that were like that I appreciated this tour that much more. If you are looking for a great informative tour with drink stops, that is laid back and fun this is the tour to attend. I recommend it.

I really didn’t know what to expect but the description sounded fun and I’ve heard a lot of great recommendations regarding the tour guides here at this company especially the girl guide Ashli that goes by the nickname TRashli. I find that hilarious btw. We booked the tour and everything was great from start to finish. I laughed so hard during this tour that midway through it my cheeks were hurting! HAHA!! The tour is cram packed full of information regarding nola history. The history is normally followed up by a ghost story and there’s vampire stories past and present! I loved the voodoo stories too! The comedy was great! We had Ashli aka TRashli and the girl is an amazing storyteller. She’s very talented & was born for the job. After the tour we were bummed because we were having so much fun! So our guide took us to one more location and told us another story! We all loved it. If you want to have fun, laugh, drink, and learn about nola this is the tour for you!
