Turned this skeptic into a believer! - Wow, wow, wow. I cannot say enough about how fantastic this tour was! Trish was a phenomenal guide and she really immersed us in the extensive history of the house, the land, and the people who lived there. She was ao knowledgeable about everything, and created such an incredible evening for us. The chance to interact with spirits was one I will never forget. I connected with a very eager and chatty spirit, and my dowsing rods were moving non stop! I couldn't believe how much activity I had! This tour was simply incredible and definitely the highlight of my trip to New Orleans!

Night Plantation Tour - The tour guide Trish is a hoot! She is very knowledgeable about this sad time in history, I liked that tour only takes about 3 hours and is at night .
The only thing I would improve is that the tour operator informs the participants to check into the restaurant first and then stand by the tour sign.

Haunted Plantation Tour with Nola Ghostriders! - Haunted Plantation Tour with Nola Ghostriders!
Went on the Destrehan Plantation tour with Nola Ghostriders. and it's an immersive journey through Louisiana's haunted history!
From the moment you arrive, the atmosphere is thick with anticipation. Our tour guide was Trish, who's a history buff with a knack for storytelling, she brings history to life with ghostly tales of the plantation's past residents. But the fun doesn't stop there – you'll even get to use dousing rods to chat with spirits!
It's a perfect blend of history and hauntings, with a respectful approach to the supernatural. Loved it!
