Loved it. This was a great spooky tour. Our tour guide was pretty knowledgeable about the city. I even caught a super spooky photo in the cemetery. In the middle of the tour they drop you off so you can buy beignets. (Not sure what that was about except to get money out of you) overall I’d do it again
