New Orleans. French Quarter house.
Peter T.

Peak did an amazing job on the French Quarter walking tour. Great cadence with lots of information that was informative and interesting. She showed us things we never would have seen without a guide. The tour was small, only 8 people and that made for a very nice time. Looking forward to our Garden District tour today!

We booked the tour the day before as everything else was sold out. Renee was great and reached out before the tour to provide her contact information. She also offered me an extra jacket which was very kind. We were a pretty small group with only six people, so it wasn't hard to hear Renée or follow along. All the other groups I saw were much bigger. The tour was interesting and we learned a lot about the Garden District and the various celebrities who own houses there. It was a great way to will away an afternoon in Orleans and you'll be well positioned to visit the Commander's Place or Magazine Street afterwards.

Interesting tomb!

We had a walking tour of St Louis 1 and 2 Cemeteries in NOLA. Eliot contacted me prior to the tour and answered questions promptly via text. We were fortunate to be in a very small group (just the four of us). Eliot gave a very thorough and informative tour. His presentation style allowed time for questions and interesting sidebars. I left the tour with so much more information and still wanting more time with our entertaining guide!

I recently visited New Orleans for the first time and, because my friend had visited the city several times and wasn't arriving until much later in the day, I did a walking tour of the French Quarter. Our tour guide, Libby, was engaging and friendly (4 stars). While I enjoyed the tour and learned several interesting things, I wished that we walked more (3 stars). Since I had never been to New Orleans, I wished that the content was more structured. So, I'd give Lucky Bean 3.5 stars overall.

Joos was our tour guide. He knows a lot about Jazz, architecture and history. He enjoyed our questions and comments. I highly recommend the tour

Libby holds a wealth of information who merges history with pop culture and humor allowing the tour to be very entertaining but very relatable to the younger generation. New Orleans is full with rich history and Libby does an excellent job in her tour. I learned so much from Libby especially Lafayette Cemetery and the Garden District.

Our group had about 10 people, and the walk itself was easy -- a comfortable pace with several stops where we stood and listened as Matthew shared stories and history. He did a wonderful job explaining the true roots and beliefs of Voodoo, as well as its place in New Orleans culture. I learned so much that I didn't know before. It's unfortunate that movies and media have given Voodoo such a negative image, because it's a genuine religion that deserves respect, just like any other. I highly recommend this tour if you want to learn more about the real culture and spiritual traditions of New Orleans.

We learned a great deal about the history of New Orleans in general, and the French Quarter in specific. It started in Jackson Square and ended near Congo Park. From the strategic blunders of the British in the War of 1812, to the two oldest buildings in the area (one a convent, the other Pirate Jean Lafitte's blacksmith shop), through the heart of this year's Decadence Festival, it was an amazing learning experience.

We originally scheduled the ghosts and vampire tour for 8:00, but decided to see if we could change…read moreto the 6:00 tour. We were able to change without any problem. We meet up at the Voodoo Lounge, where there is a ticket office in the back room. We didn't live the bar--smelled a little bit like a sewer and the hurricanes were super sweet and kind of weak. But we did have but one get one, so wasn't that upset. The tour was great. We saw some interesting, haunted places and heard the history behind them. We didn't linger too long at any one place. Our tour guide was very knowledgeable and funny, although he may have been a tad bit too heavy on the Catholic Church jokes. The tour ended at the LaLaurie house, and our guide shared a story about a little girl on who was recently on his tour who started crying and asked why there were dead people on the balcony. Spooky! I was so intrigued by what he said that I started looking up stories about Delphine LaLaurie and the haunting of the house. When I got home, I even started watching season 3 of American Horror Story, which has the character Delphine LaLaurie (accurate? No. Fun? Yes!). This was a fun way to spend the evening. There was an obnoxiously drunk guy on our tour, and our guide handled him well.

The "voodoo queen" aspect of the tour was just a fraction of what we learned about New Orleans from DJ -- from history to pronunciation to race and religion knowledge and much more. He deconstructed common stereotypes of voodoo and its main "queen", and we walked away with more knowledge of New Orleans as a city than we got from any other source. Worth every penny! As a bonus, he gave us a wonderful lunch recommendation for after the tour, and it was great! I hope to book a food tour with him next time we visit.

What is better than being in NOLA listening to haunted events while the sun was going down? Our tour guide was great. She was very detailed and very knowledgeable of everything that was discussed. The tour was about 1.5 hours long which was the perfect amount of time in my opinion. We went to numerous buildings that surrounded the French Quarter and Bourbon Street. My favorite spot was seeing the house in the Coven season of American Horror Story. I feel like your trip is not complete if you don't do one of these tours!

The True Crime Walking Tour of the French Quarter was hands-down one of the best walking tours…read morewe've ever taken, and that is entirely because of Drew. You can immediately tell he doesn't just *recite* stories--he has deeply researched them. Every detail was accurate, thoughtfully sourced, and presented with care and integrity. In a city where true crime can easily slip into sensationalism, Drew handled each story with respect, depth, and historical context. That matters, and it showed. What truly sets Drew apart is how he performs the stories. His delivery was engaging without being theatrical for the sake of it. He told each case with genuine love and passion, making the history feel alive while honoring the real people involved. He kept the group fully engaged from start to finish--thorough, entertaining, and never rushed. Drew is the kind of guide who elevates the entire experience and reflects incredibly well on your company. He's not just knowledgeable--he's a storyteller, a historian, and a professional who clearly takes pride in what he does. A true gem, and absolutely someone you want representing your tours. Highly recommend--especially if you're lucky enough to get Drew as your guide.
