Excellent Tour. Had a great time. - Roni was a great tour guide. He is a great storyteller. The stories were excellent and different than what we heard on other tours. He spoke clearly and could be heard which is hard in a busy city.

Intriguing Haunted French Quarter Eye-Opening Stories - Our guide, Mari, was a fantastic story teller& full of stories relating to the historic residencies of ghosts tied to certain buildings and homes, in the lovely and well-populated French Quarter of New Orleans. Because she's local born and raised, she had lots of background personal perspectives and relevant info. Just very entertaining and engaging- and a good connector with her group.

Great tour - Andrew was a great guide. Very interesting info. Would have liked more drama and intrigue since it was a ghost tour, but cost was reasonable and Andrew was very knowledgeable.

Informative, entertaining tour - Very entertaining stories on the ghost tour. We saw a lot of the quarter - the pace was comfortable and the area is flat. This is not a difficult tour at all, but the sidewalks are very uneven so you should can an eye on the ground.
