    Our tour was the VIP small group walking tour which was lead by Mac. He was an incredibly informative guy who kept us all engaged in the stories about the ghosts of New Orleans and the world of voodoo. Comfort breaks were built in for bathrooms and drinks - Mac looked after everyone to ensure they were comfortable. A fabulous, historical tour not to be missed

    We had a wonderful experience with William. He was quite knowledgeable about NOLA and voodoo too! The pace was nice and the stops were informative. I highly recommend him for your tour guide and the tour in general.

    Our guide was nice, but was a bit long winded. We found the tour boring and misleading. We couldn’t go into the cemetery, as that is only done by a different company and our guide didn’t always answer our questions.
