Misleading and unsafe
This entire trip was completely misleading! The “tour” guide discriminated against us from the beginning. He informed is of “ the white people “ were going ro be on a different bus from the rest of us, who were all black. The buses that picked us up were school buses, yes school buses. The music was muffled and there was no air conditioning. The buses take you to the poorest parts of the city. They make you get off at shotgun houses and give you a tour of what we African Americans call a liquor house. They are selling drinks in the back of the house- 10.00 a drink is what someone told me. We then proceeded to a different location, this time a club by the name of Goldy’s. This spot was a complete bust, a hole in the wall playing music and selling drinks. In a a very unsafe location. The next stop was a club. This club was a bit larger but in a unsafe location. We were told at each location , we had to exit the bus. This tour is not safe and we feared for our safety the entire time. Our night ended with a drop off 1 blocks beyond the pickup spot. We had to walk back to spot. This was definitely not safe Viator please remove this tour, it is definitely a misleading and unsafe tour!
Response from the operator: Thank you for sharing your feedback. We’re sorry to hear that you were unhappy with your experience. However, we do want to clarify that the experience you described does not reflect the intent or operation of our tour. Our tours are designed to showcase New Orleans culture, history, music, and locally owned establishments that are part of the communities we visit. We do not tolerate discrimination of any kind, and we take any allegation of racial discrimination seriously. If something was said or communicated in a way that made you feel uncomfortable, we would have appreciated the opportunity to address it directly during or immediately after the experience. It also sounds like the shared-tour format and certain rules or stops simply were not what you expected. That is exactly why we offer private experiences, where guests have more control over the itinerary and can have a more personalized experience. We also want to point out that our many other guest reviews provide a different perspective on the experience we provide. We respect that every guest may have a different opinion, but we do not believe it is fair to characterize the entire experience as unsafe or misleading based solely on your personal experience. We sincerely hope that on your next visit to New Orleans, you have an experience that better matches what you’re looking for. If you decide to give us another opportunity, we would be happy to offer you a complimentary tour—our recommendation would be to book a private experience so we can better accommodate your expectations. Thank you again for your feedback. We also want to clarify that we utilize multiple types of vehicles for our experiences, including party buses, depending on the tour and group size. Our goal is to give guests an authentic experience while showcasing the culture, history, music, and businesses that make New Orleans unique. When booking a cultural experience like ours, we ask guests to come with an open mind and an understanding that this is about experiencing the city beyond the typical tourist attractions. New Orleans has many different communities, traditions, sounds, and environments that are part of what makes this city special. We understand that this experience may not have been what you expected, but we stand behind the experience we provide and the many guests who have enjoyed it. This the real culture of New Orleans and this is what we showcase over here #TremeLuxuryExperience

Why this scores 60
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Nola Party Bus Tour: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for New Orleans.
How much does Nola Party Bus Tour cost?
+
Prices start at $35 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in New Orleans usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Nola Party Bus Tour take?
+
Plan for about 1.5 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in New Orleans is not rushed.
Is Nola Party Bus Tour worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 60 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.8/5 across 59 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable culture & history in New Orleans, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Nola Party Bus Tour?
+
No. This experience is sold on a non-refundable basis, so only book a date you are confident about. Similar experiences in the city do offer free cancellation if flexibility matters more than price.
Is Nola Party Bus Tour suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 1.5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Nola Party Bus Tour?
+
Around 21 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in New Orleans can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in New Orleans and add a light layer if any part of the 1.5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Nola Party Bus Tour start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central New Orleans within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in New Orleans?
+
New Orleans runs on licensed guides, and it shows: the city requires certification for tour guides, so the floor is higher here than most US cities. Ghost and cemetery walks, French Quarter food crawls, plantation history day trips and swamp boat runs make up the bulk. We rank on whether the operator handles cemetery access properly, since St. Louis No. 1 needs an authorised guide. On Outty we rank every New Orleans experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include New Orleans Swamp and Bayou Boat Tour with Transportation, New Orleans Self-Transport Swamp and Bayou Boat Tour, New Orleans Garden District History Walking Tour. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit New Orleans?
+
February to May and October to November. August is heat and storm season. Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in New Orleans?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
