What To Expect

City Park

City Park is as magical and unique as the city of New Orleans. The 1,300-acre outdoor oasis has enchanted New Orleanians since 1854, making it one of the nation’s oldest urban parks. Each year, millions of visitors stroll under the same historic oaks and picturesque moss canopies that served as the backdrop for dances, concerts and even gentlemanly duels or “affaires d’honneur” for generations.

Hurricane Katrina Memorial

On the former site of Charity Hospital’s paupers’ field, this ominous but oddly affecting circle of tombs holds the bodies of 85 unclaimed victims of the 2005 levee failures and the names of others who perished. It’s an unfussy place that’s easily missed, the better for contemplative solitude, perhaps. Surrounded by a storm-shaped series of pathways, the memorial does its duty in giving one substantial pause.

Cancellation Policy

For a full refund, cancel at least 24 hours before the scheduled departure time.

This was a much better tour than I expected. I've been on other ghost tours but this was much more fun. The guide was funny and informative. The locations were interesting. The stop for coffee and beignets was a nice break in between. The bus was clean and comfortable.

Trish our tour driver was very informative. She was knowledgeable about the history of the city and burial practices of “city of the dead”. Great tour!
