I appreciated the stories of Black history in the city. I wanted more ghost stories tied to the location where we were. I think if this tour was named Black history after dark, I would think it would be more aligned. The tour title didn't quite fit a full on ghost tour to me and the people in my group. But I appreciated our guide and her care throughout the storytelling. Would still recommend, just know what it is and what it is not.
Ready to embark on a journey through the haunted streets of the French Quarter? Welcome to the most haunted city in the nation! (If you wanna argue about it, that’s even more fun for us!) Walk by some of the most haunted locations in the quarter while being regaled with the tales of those who have gone before. Learn about the vampire community here in New Orleans, both past and present as you stroll by the site where our local Fangsmith crafts dental quality sharpened canines for anyone who dares to get fitted for them. Learn the truth behind the famed LaLaurie Mansion, from the 1800s to present day. Hear the stories of the most beloved (and most loathed) characters from New Orleans history. Get your creepy fix with the true stories of Crescent City hauntings.

WOW-Rhodesia is informative and knowledgeable. I will recommend this tour to all my friends and family when they visit NOLA! Also, it is a black and women-owned business. Spend your money supporting them!

A great tour experience, Rhody was extremely kind, welcoming, and knowledgeable. She is an amazing story teller who cares about the topics she covers. Some areas of the tour cover dark topics but Rhody handled them with respect and care. Would absolutely book again.
