Put this on your list - This was a great final tour of New Orleans for us. If you want to leave on a high note, use this tour for the person in your party who is all about some brutal crime storytelling. Riley was our tour guide, and she told me to tell you she does a fantastic job, buuuut she didn't tell me why she did a fantastic job, so let me fill in the gaps. Riley is a very articulate and attention-grabbing storyteller. She has learned the history of the city and speaks to it as if she were there to see it unfold and document it. When answering questions, she answers them confidently and without hesitation. Once the question is fully answered, then she moves on. Riley is truly a subject matter expert in the messy crime goings on in NOLA. Or she is an amazing liar. Either way. We were satisfied with the tour. I'm not going to spoil any stories. This isn't a tour where you chase a single serial killer through the city and end the story by catching them. That would be cool, and maybe you could do that, but this is multiple killers and multiple crimes happening through the centuries. Some are fairly recent. The only feedback I would have was that everyone intersected at the big grey house. There were like 5 tours all happening there, and everyone was talking over and walking through. That is a great spot for a story, but maybe it's time to tap into another one. Literally, everyone is telling that story. There has to be another gruesome murder somewhere else. Separate from the pack a bit. Anyway, great job. We enjoyed it very much.

Highly recommend! - Was recommended the tour and it didn't disappoint. You can see every night just how many tours there are wandering around but this one just feels slightly different and more personal. You can tell how much Christo loves his home town, how much he wants you to enjoy the experience and how much research he's done. At the end, you get a handout with links to his research and his suggestions of places to go whilst you're in town which is a really nice touch.

Great for True Crime Lovers! - Riley was a fantastic guide. I loved that she focused on verifiable information. She was happy to answer questions, but if there were no answers, she would let you know and share what the rumors were or what people said. However, she made it very clear what was verified and what was speculation.

Great tour & awesome stories - We actually live about 20 minutes outside of New Orleans & took this tour while my parents were in town & I am so glad we did! My fiancé has lived here all of his life & did not know about any of the stories we were told. Definitely a great experience & would highly recommend!

Historical shockers - Instead of the usual ghost stories, it was about the people and history of that neighborhood. Our story teller was full of energy to bring the stories to life.
