Would recommend - Lots if fun. Informative, glad we scheduled it! Nice walk through French quarter, not rushed. Guide was funny and great with the group Guide was thomas.

It was enchanting and engaging - This is the best! I totally recommend this for literally everyone, Jonathan is such a nice guy and even the dullest of people will enjoy this magical experience

Highlight of our trip! - This tour was one of the highlights of our trip to New Orleans. Jonathan was a wealth of knowledge and made the tour interesting, educational and also fun. Highly recommend!

Had a great time - Jonathan is the real deal! His stories really bring you in and hold your attention and his vibe is great. 10/10 would recommend to anyone who wants to learn the real truth of the dead who still call the city and buildings there home!

Shocking, Genuine, Knowledgeable - Beyond happy I scheduled this tour with Jonathan. This was the perfect blend of horror, history, and respect for New Orleans' rich culture. Jonathan is incredibly knowledgable of the French Quarter and was able to answer all questions in depth. You'll leave this tour with a deep respect for New Orleans.

Fantastic experience! - We did this tour on our last night in the city and it was the icing in the cake! Johnathan is very knowledgeable and a fantastic story teller. He interacts with the crowd a lot and loves when you ask questions. We will definitely do this again next time we are in the city.

Very Knowledgeable About The New Orleans Haunted History - The guide had all sorts of knowledge about New Orleans and the haunted history. I especially liked the story of Place d'Arms and Lafitte Bar/forge.

Sobering, informative, interesting, and authentic! - Sobering, informative, and definitely kept our attention the entire time. As a “pre-Katrina” tour guide, Mr. Weiss carefully wove his ghost information into the history of New Orleans and his passion for the city and its (dead and living) inhabitants is clear. Although I am certain he has given this tour hundreds of times before, none of it sounded rehearsed or by rote, and you feel more like you’re walking through the French quarter with a friend who just happens to know a whole lot about the city and her ghostly souls. Definitely recommend for teens, as my 14 year old was held in rapt attention for the whole 2 hours! Wear comfortable shoes and, if visiting in the summer, bring water!

If you do one thing in NOLA, do this. - Jonathan is a born storyteller and brings the French Quarter to life. Someone said to us, if you do one thing in NOLA, do Jonathan's tour, and they were absolutely right. His deep feelings for his city and its history are immediately apparent, none of the chirpy trite tour-guide stuff, all of the care, emotion and deep knowledge that cannot be faked. Totally recommended.

Too Arrogant - I've put off writing this review for months because I hate to give a negative review; I really do. I visited NOLA in February for Mardi Gras, 2023. I always book a ghost tour or three, and decided to give Jonathan Weiss a try for the first time. The tour met in Pirate's Alley at the Pirate's Alley Cafe. I'd never been in that part of the Quarter and so enjoyed discovering that part for the first time. Our guide, who was Jonathan himself, met us outside. He was dressed as a pirate himself, which I thought was so cool. He was very charismatic and also very knowledgeable. Honestly, I was impressed with his knowledge of the torture that happened in Jackson Square. Others had glazed over it on other tours I'd taken, but he really knew the grisly details of what happened. We stood outside the locked gates of the park, and he told us about so many horrible things that happened: public executions and the like. I remember looking through the bars and imagining all those horrible things happening and wondering if their ghosts still linger there today. There was a stop on the tour I'd never been to before, which impressed me. One sees the same locations over and over on these tours...which I never tire of since I am away from New Orleans except for these two precious months of the year when I'm able to visit for Mardi Gras. It was on a street where construction was happening, and you can see from the photos. This was a story about a young girl who had come from France to NOLA to marry an officer stationed there. I was barely able to pay attention to the story at this point because of the embarrassment I'd suffered by the words of our tour guide moments before. I am a huge follower/fan of all things paranormal. I have visited New Orleans many years for Mardi Gras and spent my hard-earned $ there on several different ghost tours. One experience I will never forget is a few visits to the Charity Hospital Cemetery. This was during my tours with the Nola Ghost Riders. This group is very reputable and tries to deliver the best tour possible while also being VERY respectful. On my tour of the open field at Charity Hospital Cemetery, you could feel the sadness there and I did have two supernatural contacts at that location. Everyone on that tour was so respectful of that open burial space and the Katrina memorial in that spot. Now, coming back to my tour with Jonathan... Being such a paranormal enthusiast, I wondered if he had been out to the Charity Hospital Cemetery and if he'd felt the paranormal connections I had there. I asked him about it when he called for questions about the paranormal during our tour. I just started to ask him if he'd ever been out to Charity Hospital Cemetery, and he totally cut me off. He didn't even let me finish my sentence. He said something along the lines of having no respect for any groups who go out there and how disrespectful he considered such a thing. All eyes in our ghost tour group then turned on me. I honestly have never felt so humiliated in my life. He turned my question into a spectacle of me going out and being disrespectful to the dead. I have never had that intent and would never go out with a group who felt that way. I would leave immediately. But on this tour, after he did what he did, I (to my self-disgust) shut down. He humiliated me in front of the entire tour group, calling me out for something totally inaccurate. I have nothing but respect for spirits and reach out with the intent of helping or understanding. But the damage had been done. For the rest of the tour, I felt so humiliated. So much so that I couldn't really enjoy the rest of the evening. I will also point out that he knew the entire group was from Canada (me) or somewhere else and he insulted America and Americans, basically calling all of them stupid, which I also found incredibly insulting...given his city is American, whether he likes it or not. At the end of the tour, I think he was basically trying to make up for what he said. He must have acknowledged at some point that he had totally humiliated me in front of the entire group for enjoying the paranormal. He kissed my hand and said some flattering things, which I found too-little-too-late. This guy has the confidence and knowledge of NOLA to be a TOP-NOTCH tour guide...and this would have been one of my favourite tours, had he not humiliated me in front of our entire group simply for having an interest in another location. How can you say going to Charity Hospital Cemetery is wrong when you stand in front of Andrew Jackson Square and recant the atrocities that happened there? Please, tell me how that is any different? Why did you have to treat me that way and make me feel so horrible? I'd really like to know. He needs to lose some of his arrogance. Then, he might truly be one of the best paranormal tours in NOLA. But you will never get there by insulting one of your guests for their interest in the paranormal because they took a tour outside your own. I wouldn't tour with him again because I would never want to feel so humiliated again just for wishing to connect with those who have passed and always in a way that is respectful.
