One-of-a-kind Tour! Amazing! - The Blackest Ghost Tour is fantastic! I learned so much and I was left wanting to know more. Our tour guide, Rhodesia, was amazing. She took great care of us! She made it fun, heartfelt and of course, spooky. Rhodesia did a great job of checking in on us and asking us if we are okay. She took time to answer our questions. At the end of the tour, she even gave us restaurant recommendations. Her food recommendation was excellent! I will be recommending and encouraging everyone I know who is visiting New Orleans to do The Blackest Ghost Tour!

Book this tour of the French Quarter! - My daughter found this tour in a visit in 2023 - we loved it! I booked for last week when my boyfriend and I visited NOLA. Highly recommend this tour with Malika- she has an in-depth knowledge of the history of New Orleans and continues to research this city, sharing her knowledge. She is a terrific story teller!

Must do tour of French Quarter! - This was the second time doing The Blackest Ghost Tour with Malika and it was just as interesting second time around! The first time was in 2023 with my daughter and friend; this time was with bf. Small tour loaded with history. I particularly liked learning about Vodou. Malika is great at overlaying history with the ghost tour. Highly recommend this tour for anyone wanting to see the most haunted areas of French Quarter + glean an understanding of NOLA with a non-whitewashed lens.

Informative, Fun and Spooky Tour with Good Vibes - What a fun way to learn history and get a little spooky on a night out in New Orleans! The context given by the tour guide is what created a true learning experience that did not feel exploitative nor voyeuristic. The guide was super smart and funny and quickly made the group feel at ease. I recommend this tour!

Engaging, contemporary and fun - This was the best tour I’ve taken in the American south, and one of the most enjoyable educational sessions I’ve had the pleasure of participating in. Malika is a scholar, artist (and more) who gives insightful, factual and fun contemporary tours. I wish they’d open a tour branch where I live in Richmond Virginia. We need it.
