Layered with History & Nightmares - This tour is true to New Orleans history with haunting ghost stories to spice things up. Ariadne was an amazing tour guide. She is an excellent story teller weaving human history and the supernatural effortlessly together to demonstrate a plot that either leaves your job dropped in shock or teeth chattering out of fear. She was funny and knowledgeable, and captivated us the whole way through. Don’t miss this tour. It’s tied for the number one highlight of our week long trip (we did a lot and this tour is on top).

Outstanding experience!! - Outstanding tour! Our guide was Ariadne Blayde. I highly recommend this tour and tour guide. I actually caught an orb pic at The La Laurie Mansion! One usually thinks some of this stuff is made up; however, you can research these sites and learn the history. Definitely worth the low price!!

Ariadne was Awesome! - Oh my god! This was our third trip to the Crescent City. We've done walking tours each time. This was easily the best experience yet. Ariadne Blayde was nothing short of phenomenal.

Ask for Yah Yah the Black Cat of the French Quarter - Our tour guide Yah Yah was amazing. We had a private tour with her and each of her stories was gripping and hilarious. Albeit they each ended sadly. The kids loved her and we really connected with her. Definitely ask for Yah Yah the Black Cat of the French Quarter — she’s not just a tour guide…she’s an experience.

Great tour, definitely one you must take, even if you have gone on other ghost tours! - This tour is actually called the Ghosts and Legends tour! Ariadne was very interesting and informative she answered all of our questions. We did not feel rushed even on our break, she took her time giving us the history and background on each of the locations we visited. We also ended our tour on the waterfront, which was nice to get some fresh air since it was so hot outside.

Bomb ass tour guide: Ariadne! - Ariadne was phenomenal!!! Will definitely be recommending not only the tour, but her as a guide. I’m a huge history nerd, and horror fan, and she coupled the two together like lamb and tuna fish! 🤌🏻 Thank you again! 🤙🏻

Great tour, Ariadne was awesome! - We took this tour last night. We are from Portland Oregon and my girl had never been to New Orleans and so for our first night here I surprised her with this tour because she is a big true crimes, history and ghost stories fanatic. Our tour guide Ariadne was fun, knowledgeable, friendly and a great speaker.
