#1 Ghost Tour: Spirits: New Orleans Cocktail & Ghost Tour - John is a fabulous Ghost Tour Guide! He incorporates years of research into the real stories and accounts of ghost activity in New Orleans. Fascinating information, fun tour (around 18 people max) with stops at a few very cool bars along the way. VIP treatment and a chance to sit, with no pressure to purchase beverages. John is a wealth of information - highly recommend him over the other tour operators.

Fun way to explore the city! - We had such a good time on this cocktail and ghost tour! The whole night was a perfect mix of spooky stories, cool history, and really good drinks. Our guide, John, made everything hilarious and super entertaining — he kept the vibe fun and the stories engaging. If you’re looking for something different to do, this is it. Great cocktail bars, creepy tales, and a guide who absolutely makes the night. Highly recommend!

Fun evening walk with ghost stories and cool bars! - The guide shared some amusing ghost stories as we walked around the French Quarter on New Year's Eve. Easy walk, and purchasing cocktails was optional, with non alcoholic beverages available as well. We loved the sweet bars visited!
