MEH.......it was interesting information what could be heard of it. Shaun was informative but tour led us to believe we would be going inside a haunted building when in fact other than the bar on bourbon st that we could have gone into anyways there was none. Luckily I got discounted tickets so it was alright

Candy is an Amazon guide! I learned a lot on the tour. The brochure said we would go into a house and have access to the balcony of a haunted building. We did not. I was told on the tour the pamphlet is wrong and needs to be changed‍♀️ A little disappointed

Little children might not respond well to some of the grisly tales, or the mid-tour 15 minute bar-break (during which they would not be able to enter the bar). Regarding grisly tales, the detail with which the first story is rendered (a recent murder-suicide event) was deep and distressing, and didn't seem in keeping with the theme of old-world ghosts.
