My family had a fantastic time on Strange True’s Adult History Tour of the French Quarter. No others signed up for our time slot, so the 5 of us got a personal tour. Rev. Jeffery was super fun, very knowledgeable, and an absolutely fantastic storyteller. Though we had already been on a few tours while in New Orleans, this was the best of the vacation. This is a great tour for (fun) history buffs and more casual tourists alike. If I’m ever in town again, I would certainly book another tour with Strange True above other tour companies. We even got some postcards of Rev. Jeffery’s personal photography to go home with! For anyone wondering, this tour was not too risqué for my family even though my parents have a tendency to be squeamish at times. Everyone had a blast!

My wife and I participated in the history tour of the French Quarter and were fortunate enough to secure Loki as our guide. We decided to use Strange True Tours because of their smaller tour size, and lucked out as it was only the two of us in the tour. Loki was passionate from the start and you could tell that his family's long history in the historic parts of New Orleans brings with it a sense of pride as he introduces others to these stories. Things were presented in a factual but engaging manner and the stories wrapped you in so that you almost empathized with the various historical figures he introduces you to. All in all this was a great way to gain some understanding and connection to the city and we would highly recommend it.

A group of friends and I booked "The Ghost Tour" for our trip to Nola last weekend. We honestly weren't expecting much, thought it might even be a tad bit ridiculous, but we decided to do despite our doubts! We were so lucky to get Loki as our tour guide and he was incredible. He made the two hour tour absolutely entertaining and packed with history and a couple camp fire stories. He in extremely knowledgeable about New Orleans, the history, what has happened where and also whether or not things are fact or fiction. While all the other groups were out with about 30 people, our group had just give, which made it much more personalized and entertaining! Strange True Tours is an overall excellent and easy company to work with, but best of all was Loki, definitely request him if you get to New Orleans!
