    Small group makes the...

    Small group makes the experience so much more authentic, and let’s room for questions. Our guide did not just talked about ghosts, but also about the history of the City.

    Response from the operator: Thank you so much for your review! Those smaller groups really do make all the difference; we're glad you got to ask questions and really soak in the amazing history of New Orleans.

    Very entertaining tour.

    The tour was fantastic. Our guide, Barrett, was very entertaining and charming. He was very knowledgeable on the history but surely made our experience memorable. We also had him for a French Quarter tour and was so happy to get him again for this tour.

    Response from the operator: Thank you so much for the review. Barrett is one of the most talented guides out there. He really knows how to both entertain and educate in such an effective way! Thanks for supporting our small locally owned business.

    Great ghost tour with Barrett

    Barrett was amazing! It was great to be in a small group so everyone could hear and could fit on the sidewalk :) We learned a lot and had a great time!

    Response from the operator: Thank you for the review! Yes Barrett really is an amazing guide. Thanks so much for supporting us and we hope to see you again!

    Fantastic experience! So happy I chose this tour!

    Such an amazing tour! Our guide was extremely personable and really went above and beyond. He filled us in on all the New Orleans history and relevant ghost reports associated with many of the famous locations. It was a fantastic mix of real life tragedy and unexplainable mystery. It was just me and my boyfriend in the tour group, so it felt extra personalized. Definitely recommend this company!!

    Response from the operator: Awesome! Thanks so much for the review and for supporting our small, local business.

    Small-Group French Quarter Haunted Ghost Tour: questions travelers ask

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

    How much does Small-Group French Quarter Haunted Ghost Tour cost?

    +

    Prices start at $49 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 Small-Group French Quarter Haunted Ghost Tour take?

    +

    Plan for about 2 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 Small-Group French Quarter Haunted Ghost Tour worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 67 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 23 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 Small-Group French Quarter Haunted Ghost Tour?

    +

    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 Small-Group French Quarter Haunted Ghost Tour suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 2-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Small-Group French Quarter Haunted Ghost Tour?

    +

    Around 8 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 2-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Small-Group French Quarter Haunted Ghost 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 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.
