Spooooktacular! - We had the best experience with Randy on this tour! He was very knowledgeable about the city and its lore and made sure to provide us with accurate but extremely interesting information about the spooks and spirits of New Orleans. He also provided personal anecdotes of his connections to some of the stories which was especially interesting, and he definitely didn’t skimp on the details! If you’re a fan of true crime or the macabre this is definitely the tour for you. Would 100% take this tour again!

Tour Company No-Showed - We never went on the tour which was prepaid because the address we were to meet at was the American Sports Saloon, which is closed temporarily and a boarded up building. We waited there for ten minutes past the meeting time and no one showed up. There weren't any signs for the Phenomenal Tour Company. We asked several people and were told that the saloon had been closed for two months; no one had ever heard of the tour company. Tried to contact the tour company using the website link listed in their confirmation email, but the link was not working. Would not use this company again.
