Great but hot
Great tour but in done during the hottest part of the day 1-3 pm so in the summer months bring umbrella/frozen water bottle/fan to keep cool
Response from the operator: Thank you for joining us on the Witches Coven Walking Tour in New Orleans! We’re glad you enjoyed the tour, and we appreciate the helpful advice for fellow summer visitors. New Orleans heat is definitely serious business, so staying hydrated and prepared makes a big difference. Thank you for touring with us! 🖤🌙

Morgan was an amazing guide on a fantastic tour
I was really excited about this tour, and our guide Morgan lived up to my expectations and went beyond them. Although she kept the privacy of many of the families that she mentioned during the tour, it was clear that she has knowledge and experience about the history of witchcraft in the Garden District that an average guide might not. I learned so much during the tour. She was also great about helping to keep us in the shade as much as possible on an extremely hot day and made sure we all had water before we left. I would absolutely take another tour with Morgan!
Response from the operator: Thank you for joining us on the Witches Coven Walking Tour in New Orleans! We’re thrilled Morgan exceeded your expectations. Her personal knowledge, respect for the families whose stories we share, and commitment to authentic history are such important parts of this tour. We’re also glad she kept everyone as comfortable as possible in that New Orleans heat. We’d love to welcome you back for another tour with Morgan! 🖤🌙

Why this scores 76
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Witches Coven Walking Tour in New Orleans: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for New Orleans.
How much does Witches Coven Walking Tour in New Orleans 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 Witches Coven Walking Tour in New Orleans 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 Witches Coven Walking Tour in New Orleans worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 76 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 113 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 Witches Coven Walking Tour in New Orleans?
+
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 Witches Coven Walking Tour in New Orleans 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 Witches Coven Walking Tour in New Orleans?
+
Around 40 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 Witches Coven Walking Tour in New Orleans 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.
