Ask for Trish for your plantation ghost tour! You won’t regret it! - Our tour guide was very informative and the best we have had. She have such detailed information and gave plenty of time for pictures and questions. Her name is Trish. She is friendly and polite and showed interest in every guest, asking questions about their experience, explaining extra details about New Orleans, and sharing her own inquisitive nature and extensive knowledge of the plantation and New Orleans as a whole. We got to use these cool instruments to communicate with ghosts and explore the grounds outside. She went above and beyond for our groups. I would definitely recommend her again. Ask for Trish!!

Terrible Tour Guide - This was not worth the money. First of all, we were told to meet at the pick up location a half hour early. Why? The tour guide showed up 40 minutes later! Then, she sat around having a soda at the bar while we were all waiting for her. We get to the plantation late. The plantation itself was beautiful and well taken care of. We again hung around in the gift shop while the tour guide helped herself to a couple of pieces of candy that were for sale. It’s now over an hour into our tour and we hadn’t even begun to see the house. She then tells us before the tour even begins that she’s going to be staying behind to help the woman close up shop before we leave so we may have to wait on her. Seriously?!? As we’re going on the tour, she’s sneaking over to the side so she can vape. She was a very unprofessional tour guide and I would encourage tourists to go on their own.
