Absolutely worth it! - This was such a fantastic, fascinating tour, and we had plenty of time to wander around the grounds at night with our spirit boxes and dousing rods. The tour guide was amazing, and it was very very cool to see the inside of a plantation house.

Night Tour - Trish is a great guide, story teller and navigator. It was a super special evening with a small group, and time to reflect on the past. Would recommend this experience.

Fun and informative, but did not see any ghosts! - Enjoyedthe information provided by Jim (with one M). Did not see a ghost, though! The description of the daughter's death from Yellow Fever was particularly harrowing to me, as my Great Great Grandparents also died from yellow fever in Florida.

Fun and historicl - The spirits were very active when using the witching sticks which made the experience even more memorable. Trish was awesome and very informative! My sister and I had a great time! Trish provided information, such as the slave revolt of 1811, we’d never heard about. I highly recommend this tour!!

Destrehan Haunted Night Tour with Trish. - I think you have to go with a fun and good attitude. Scary - no not really, Fun - yes very. Trish was a character and we loved her, she was witty and knowledgeable and interacted with the group a lot. I would recommend it for a fun and informative evening.

A fun informative tour - The guides were vary friendly and they did a great job of explaining the history and providing a tour of the house. The grounds were beautiful at night. Plenty of ghost stories and pictures were shared making it an all around fun experience. I do believe they pushed the paranormal stuff a little over the top though. I don't believe in ghosts so I found all the shenanigans pretty silly. With that said I think the tour was fun and worth it from a historical stand point. But don't be gullable and expect to see a ghost or have any paranormal experience.

Disappointing - Very disappointed. Tour was canceled without notice. We had this tour booked for over a month. It was supposed to be on Thanksgiving. I just happened to look at my confirmation email that I gotten one week previous that said to call the day of. Called and they said the plantation was closed for Thanksgiving. If the plantation was closed why were they booking tours for that date. Very frustrating as we had planned our day around this nighttime tour. Your company should have checked to see if it was closed and could have emailed or called that the tour was canceled
