Robert was awesome and... - Robert was awesome and kept the tour moving and had great knowledge. He was very charismatic, and we learned a lot about the stops that we made. We also learned a lot of information that that was not normally known.

Pretty comprehensive & entertaining - For a comprehensive history lesson about the city of New Orleans and French Quarter, book with Raffle. Raffle was knowledgeable and hella funny! We learned about all the ghosts and gore of the French Quarter, really interesting stuff. I went with my 13 and 14 year old kids, and they soaked it all up! And he gave us recommendations for shopping, food and where to experience authentic Nola life. We highly recommend!

Ghostly good time on the Streets of New Orleans - Great walking tour. Our tour guide, "Raffle" was informative and entertaining. He also paid attention to the safety of the group and offered up many interesting modern day side notes and stories relating to many of these ghostly locations. Highly recommend.

Fun night out, good family tour - Good experience , informative guide. Only issue was the meeting location written in Expedia was wrong and missed out on some of the beginning part of the tour. Otherwise it was an enjoyable and interesting experience

Not worth it - It wasn’t very informative. The tour was based on the tour guide’s personal opinions. It was very hard for me to follow along with what the guide was saying because the information wasn’t given well. It wasn’t entertaining and everyone in my group of 4 were ready to leave. I wouldn’t recommend this tour to anyone else.

We didn't make it, tried to reschedule or get our money back - We never made it there because we didn't realize how far the walk was and half way there we called and asked to be rescheduled for Thurs. But no one has returned our call. Lisa guy and George. Our other friends Annette and Rick..
