Wasn’t worth the money

Tour guide seemed a little drunk yet she was informative. It wasn’t advertised that it was a 2hr walking tour of just listening to stories, while we heard different stories being tons right next to us by other tour guides so it made it UNBELIEVABLE! I recommend more hands on activities and to bring comfortable shoes

Lucil, we're so sorry to hear you did not enjoy your experience with us. We advertise this as a "2 hour walking tour with live commentary" it is meant to be a walk through the dark history of the French Quarter. If you're looking for something more "hands on" I'd recommend a haunted house or theme park. I do apologize, again, that the experience wasn't what you expected-- I'd be happy to try to fix this for you. Please reach out to us at manager@witchesbrewtours.com to discuss further. Thank you!

Witches brew tours: I consider myself a New Orleans haunted history buff, and I still learned about new dark stories and new iconic characters from the city’s layered lore. Thus is the quintessential introduction to NOLA and is a must for any first time visitor.
