Emily was very friendly and sweet! She was enjoyable to listen to and very knowledgeable. Was a great tour to take in the afternoon so as to stretch our legs from the flight from Colorado! Be very careful of the drink called the hand grenade.... it will mess with you. Thanks Emily!!!

The guide had very strong accent. It would be difficult if you are not a native English speaker.

The guide Cody was not animated enough for me. Having done other tours in New Orleans that were given by Free Walking Tours, this guide was not up to the same level for 25. I had higher expectations for the tour.....and would not recommend this tour for anyone.

The tour was all right, but it was nothing special. The tour guide wasn't very enthused and actually minimized the creepiness several times. Also, it seemed to last forever. After about an hour and a half, I just wanted to leave which probably wouldn't have been the case if it had been more exciting.
