We took this tour with Lesly at the start of our week long vacation in NOLA. This was our first time in New Orleans and Leslie took us around the French Quarter explaining the history, pointing out hotpot’s and local favorites. It really was an ideal way to get acquainted with our surroundings. It was clear that Lesly was both passionate and well versed in the local history. Also this was supposed to be a small group tour (you will see massive parade like groups of tours) but as it was off season we had Lesly to ourselves so it turned into an excellent private tour.

This feels-like-family tour is really nice. Our guide Dane was the most friendly guide I had in any tour, showing us the French-Quarter secrets that make you taste a local life. We were a small group (which I think is the way they operate) and he stayed after the tour for quite some time to answer all our questions. I highly recommend the tour.

Theresa was amazing! She has a great personality, she's very fun, engaging and funny!! We loved the tour! We've taken haunted ghost tours all over the country and this one was one of the best by far. If you like ghost tours, then you need to experience this one! New Orleans just adds to the ambience here! 5 stars!
