Pinky was an exceptional storyteller! I’ve been on many ghost tours in town, but this was the very best! We got to go inside a haunted building, made fun stops throughout the city, and stopped for a drink. I would highly recommend this tour!

Amazing trip

Tour was great! Tour guide was very knowledgeable and energetic. The lady in the dress at the end was honestly the best part of our trip. Should have danced with her, got scared.

Our tour guide Sean was both extremely funny and historically accurate. He refused to dress things up purely for show and instead wove humor into a realistic explanation of events.

Fascinating history and great tour guide!

My teenagers and I took this ghost tour and we all loved it. Our guide, Lauren, was exceptional! She was extremely knowledgeable, engaging, and genuinely entertaining. She provided incredible historical context and fascinating tidbits about the city’s lesser known past that kept all of us hooked from start to finish.

Uncage New Orleans

I loved how all the tours I took all interconnected the history of New Orleans. .. Also leaned how strange Nicholas Cage is being down there and I feel bad for the Big Easy. Honestly I think they'd rather have Shia LaBeouf.

DISappointing

This was not my first Ghost Tour here in New Orleans. I'm local. I brought 7 others with me for the Birthday week of activities. First of all, there were too many people on the type. There were at least 20 people in the group. Secondly, we didn't go to all of the stops. I'm not sure if we made it to the Place D'Armes, and I know for certain, we didn't make it to the Blacksmith Shop. We went the the NOT AIRCONDITIONED, haunted room, where she told us the story and solicited for gratuities. Then she told us it was the end of the tour. The website says we end up back at the start of the tour; Jackson Square. I said something like, "That's it?" Her response was, "Yeah, Babe, you've been with me for ninety minutes." Then she pointed the direction to the square. Unfortunately, someone fell I'll, due to the heat, while on tour and we waited until they decided not to continue to move on. She didn't seem to have any compassion for this person and was eager to move on. Maybe this is why she skippedtheBlacksmith Shop
