Our guide was great! This was my favorite activity of our whole New Orleans trip. I would recommend this to a friend!
My friend and I had a great time on the French Quarter Phantom Ghost Tour with Michael as our guide. He was incredibly friendly, knowledgeable, and shared so much fascinating history about the French Quarter. I really appreciated that he was respectful and open-minded about everyone's beliefs while telling the stories, which made the experience enjoyable for everyone. I'll admit, I was hoping for at least one spooky moment just so I could say I experienced something paranormal before heading home like nothing happened! 😂 Of course, that's completely out of Michael's control, and it certainly didn't take away from the tour. What really stood out was Michael's passion for the history and the way he kept everyone engaged. At the end of the tour, he also gave my friend and me some fantastic recommendations for food and drinks, and they did not disappoint. If you're looking for an entertaining, informative, and well-guided ghost tour in New Orleans, I definitely recommend this one, and if you get Michael as your guide, you're in for a great experience!
Randy was an excellent storyteller and all around nice person.
Because I was with my kids (tween/teen), we signed up for the 6:00 tour. Michael was a wonderful guide, relating the stories and legends with obvious enthusiasm and knowledge and welcomed questions. We all had a spooky blast!
It is a cute walking tour around the French Quarter. A stop at a bar is made at the midpoint to cool down and hydrate. Ghost tours aren't my thing, but Michael did a good job of keeping it interesting.
Our tour guide was so nice, knowledgeable, and fun. He walked at a steady pace and made sure to answer all the questions we had. It was a great experience. Definitely 10/10!
Others have said this trip is 4 miles. It’s not. It’s maybe 1 mile - I tracked it with my watch. Trip starts at the voodoo lounge, a joint open 24 hours a day. You get bogo hurricane drinks all day with your wrist band, but the drinks are fairly priced without the deal. Randy was our tour guide and was really just great. He grew up in the south and has been in NOLA for a bit now. He was winsome and inviting, had a great pace verbally and physically through the tour. He also made the trip colorful with some inside knowledge and personal stories. We walked by other tour guides of other tours, and I can tell you that without a doubt, Randy was light years ahead of many of these other folks. Randy also gave some recommendations of what to see and where to go that we wouldn’t have thought to look for or search beforehand. Great tour and great tour guide!
Tara was amazing! Loved her story telling experience. We went to multiple locations in the area and enjoyed the stories and overall experience
This was a fantastic experience and a great value. Breon had fascinating stories with his own unique style of storytelling. Our family of 7 has 5 kids ranging from 16-24 and all enjoyed it equally. This was the best part of our short getaway to N.O. this weekend.
Mike was an amazing guide for our ghost and vampire tour with Voodoo lounge!! He has that historical and legend accuracy that good historians and story teller possess. He speaks with intriguing subtlety unlike any other guides which made him so respected and legitimate as he definitely knows his stuff down to the numbers and years with precision! You can see his passion about vampires and he shared his own experiences with it!! Absolutely a thrill and a once in a lifetime experience!! Best, Jane and Craig
