    About this experience

    A seance is when people sit around a round table and talk to a ghost. Most likely the ghost is a friend or a family member who is dead but very much alive in the spirit realm. Meeting a real Psychic Medium who's able to connect and give messages from those on the other side is a once in a lifetime opportunity. If a person feels they don't have someone on the other side they wish to talk to, they can still receive a message from their own angels and spirit guides whom they never had known before. This experience includes a spiritual reading and you can also learn the istory of the 1800s-style home.

    I didn’t know what to...

    I didn’t know what to expect from this, but went in with an open mind to whatever it would be. Madam Marie was very sweet and fun. I felt like each of us had very specific information in our spiritual reading that couldn’t’ have been faked and was accurate to our lives. Each of us had very different readings. I had a very meaningful experience and I would recommend this to others who want to explore spiritual reading experiences.

    Not a seance, no tour, free wine

    The description and the experience could not have been more different. First, it was grossly overbooked and since we were the last group it took nearly 3 hours for our reading. There was no tour offered, and it was a tarot card reading as opposed to a seance. Card reading wasn't remotely accurate. Silver lining - FREE WINE!

    Response from the operator: Hi there. You're unforgettable. You came into the Seance already done lots of drinking and then you drank a lot of bottles of wine and was very rude and too drunk. I thought you wouldn't remember anything, Was hoping the other guests did not make A a bad review about you and how you were treating everybody. We had a trash bucket but you made sure to trash the house floor. I am so sorry that it was too much wine there for you. You didn't know how how to stop at your limit but the ghost did talk to you anyway. It was your Mother.

    Not the truth…lost $875

    The description was nothing of what we were given. No hour tour and there was no a seance. Also we booked for 8p and were not given our taro card reading until 11p as two other groups were book ahead of ours. There was no reach out to ask if we wanted to keep our time or move it to another day I would not recommend.

    Response from the operator: Hi Kristin, I remember your group and your mother come through in the Seance and so many more ghosts. I also remember that you were crying your eyes out the entire time. I remember when you told me that all of your group were extreme disbelievers. Your group was loud and disruptive to the groups before you. I thought there would be a bad review from them because of y'all's behavior and when it was y'all turn. Y'all was so quiet and crying. Plus you were asked if you wanted another time or day for a private Seance and you declined. All of you were aware that the tour was not private but the other groups left, so your tour ended up being private anyway. Please stop it, If you are a part of the witches group who book this tour just to leave a bad review. Stop it. Either way this is not a truthful statement but of course you are free to leave your opinion as you did.

    Private Tour and Seance at the House on Bourbon: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for New Orleans.

    How much does Private Tour and Seance at the House on Bourbon cost?

    +

    Prices start at $175 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 Private Tour and Seance at the House on Bourbon take?

    +

    Plan for about 1 hour 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 Private Tour and Seance at the House on Bourbon worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 56 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.6/5 across 55 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in New Orleans, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Private Tour and Seance at the House on Bourbon?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is Private Tour and Seance at the House on Bourbon suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 1-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Private Tour and Seance at the House on Bourbon?

    +

    Around 19 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-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Private Tour and Seance at the House on Bourbon 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 Swamp Tour Boat Adventure, New Orleans Self-Transport Swamp and Bayou Boat 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.
