Explore French Quarter ghost stories through eyewitness accounts, historical records, and local lore on this thoughtful New Orleans walking tour.

About this tour

Explore the haunted French Quarter on a New Orleans Ghost Tour shaped by eyewitness testimony, historical records, newspaper accounts, family stories, and generations of oral tradition. You do not need to believe in ghosts; you only need to be curious about what people have experienced and remembered.

As you walk through the neighborhood, hear how tragedy becomes legend and how unexplained encounters find their way into local lore. Stories come from residents, hotel employees, writers, investigators, and families, alongside accounts drawn from your guide’s own paranormal investigations and family history. Rather than presenting every tale as fact, this New Orleans Ghost Tour distinguishes documented history from folklore and lets you weigh the testimony for yourself. A stop with an optional bar and bathroom break is available; purchases are separate. After the tour, take home a PDF with additional stories.

Meet in front of Sweet Saint Ice Cream Shop and come prepared for uneven terrain. Tours run rain or shine. Join this New Orleans Ghost Tour to hear the stories, examine the evidence, and decide what you believe.

How this score is calculated

This score is based on one provider. Viator rates it 4.52 from 25 reviews. We place that rating among all Viator ratings and weight it by its review count. If the tour is found on another provider later, both ratings are combined.

How the score works and rating distribution in New Orleans
  • Each provider rating is turned into a percentile: the share of that provider's ratings it beats, weighted by review counts.
  • Listings on different providers are combined in proportion to their review counts.
  • Tours with few reviews are pulled toward the average until more reviews come in, so a handful of perfect reviews can't top the list.
  • The result is shown from 0 to 10: this tour scores 6.4.
