I didn't know what to expect so I kept an open mind about this tour…read more We were instructed to meet our guide at Voodoo Tavern and Poboys about 30 minutes before to give us plenty of time for some drinks (to have at the bar and to bring for the tour.) About 15 minutes before departure, our guide Henry walked in and intro'd himself as the man to show us around. He did a quick round and once his check list of guests completed, he brought the bus around and boarded all of us. He mentioned we were making two cemetery stops and a break in between. He's a really entertaining guy and knowledgeable guide. He made sure to point out places of interest during the drive. He gave us plenty of historical facts and made at some recommended eateries as well as famous homes while we drove by them. We learned a lot because of this tour: why some crypts have vents and others don't, the story behind one year and one day before reusing them, the phrase "saved by the bell" (Henry mentioned this phrase supposedly originated from New Orleans), money flexing even in the afterlife, how and why and how there are so many bodies buried in one crypt (hence the many names on the tombstones - one had 500+ dating back from the 1800's), etc. It really was educational and fun at the same time. It's a two hour tour and that's what we got. We were also lucky to be with a fun and interactive group. TIP: The earliest tour during the week starts at 8pm. They start at 5pm on Fridays. ANOTHER TIP: Henry highly HIGHLY recommended taking as many pictures and selfies as you can. Some might reveal surprise photo bombers! (Sadly, we weren't that lucky!) He will also suggest downloading an app (I believe it's called Ghost Hunting Tools - it's blue with a black handprint on it) that supposedly picks up spirits. (I did it just for fun! And it set off another tourist's phone, so that was interesting!) He also recommends walking out of the gate backwards to ward of possible spirits from following you home or wherever you may end up in. (Whether you believe this or not is up to you.) We had a great time. I would absolutely recommend this tour for NOLA first timers.

The cemetery itself was interesting to see, but overall I was disappointed with the tour. I was…read morehoping to learn much more about the people buried there and the history behind the graves, but there wasn't as much historical information as I expected. I also felt there was too much emphasis on asking for tips. I would have preferred the guide spend more time sharing the cemetery's history and the stories of those buried there rather than focusing on tipping. The gift shop was nice to browse, but the prices were quite high. While I'm glad I experienced it once, it's not something I would do again. If you're looking for a tour with a deeper historical focus, this one may leave you wanting more.

Full disclosure: I had never taken a French Quarter tour until yesterday. A random invitation over…read morecocktails had me and about a dozen friends wandering the Quarter on a Wednesday night for Kate's Streets of Sin tour, accidentally dressed for a funeral procession, with the exception of one lone flapper in teal. I live in the French Quarter, so my relationship with tour groups usually consists of fighting my way down overcrowded sidewalks, listening to the same embellished stories shouted by guides reading from the same script to hand grenade touting tourists with no spatial awareness. It was refreshing to discover this wasn't that. If you're looking for pirates, vampires, ghosts, or whatever story gets recycled every twenty feet, keep walking. Kate skipped the greatest hits and went straight for the city's seedier side instead. Murder? Check. Crime? Check. Corruption? Absolutely. Scandal? Plenty. The same five stories every other guide has been telling for decades? Mercifully, no. None of it felt scripted. You can tell Kate genuinely loves the research. Each stop had me thinking, "How have I lived here this long and never heard that?" It felt less like a history lecture and more like your smartest friend letting you in on a couple centuries worth of really juicy gossip. It was truly an entertaining way to spend a couple hours in New Orleans. 5 stars, all day.

All the reviews I read noted it wasn't spooky so we went for it and I'm so glad we did! The meeting spot was easy to find. Our tour guide was Ashley. She was phenomenal. She was great with the kids and kept them engaged. She told us all kinds of things about the history of New Orleans especially Jackson Square. I thoroughly enjoyed the information! The tour was a little short of two hours and the time flies by. Nothing was scary that was shared other than light ghost debauchery. Nothing gory was shared and vocabulary was carefully chosen. Parents learned of stories that they could google later for the information. I highly recommend this tour if you're on the fence!

I'm in town for a forensics conference and when I registered, I paid for two spots on the Unique NOLA True Crime Tour that was scheduled for Sunday. My fiancé and I ended up booking a later flight and would not be able to make the Sunday tour, so I called ahead to see if we could be rescheduled. Chris answered the phone and fixed us up without issue; we'd be on the 7pm tour the following day. Carlo texted the group ahead of time as a reminder with the address we would meet him at. At first we were concerned that maybe the tour would cover all the same spots as the usual ghost and vampire tours--my fiancé called that hypothetical "same tour, different flavor"--but I am happy to report that there was only one stop that we had seen before, and Carlo actually mentioned that it's the most famous stop and that it's featured in the other tours. He offered to take us to a different stop instead, but one of our group members was looking forward to seeing the famous one so we did that (you know the one, from AHS). But even there, Carlo stuck to the facts of previous owners of the house, and he told us specifically when an element here or there was a local tale of haunting. All throughout the tour, Carlo was informative, comedic, and didn't claim to know more than he does. We love a factual, history-based tour! At the end, Carlo gave us Mardi Gras tips and directions back to the places we were trying to get to. He grew up in New Orleans, and he's dabbled in a wide range of jobs, so he really knows his stuff. We appreciated every bit of the tour, and would definitely book with them for another tour in the future.

It's unfortunate that movies and media have given Voodoo such a negative image, because it's a genuine religion that deserves respect, just like any other.
