What Guests Are Saying

DEFINITELY RECOMMEND. I cannot believe how great the customer service is with this Gators and Ghost. We had a weather related issue that was resolved without issue. It is hard to find companies that are willing to go the extra mile to help you out.

Very much enjoyed Lenny's stories. He was very engaging and interesting.

About This Tour

Ghost tours are great. Drinking in New Orleans is great. Why not both? The Apparitions & Libations Haunted Pub Crawl takes you to four haunted French Quarter bars while your guide shares tales of murder, crimes of passion, and paranormal activity. It's 21+ only, so expect an adult atmosphere and stories that don't make it onto the all-ages tours.

Your guide leads you off the beaten path and into the darker corners of the Quarter, stopping at bars with centuries of history soaked into their walls. Along the way you'll hear about the infamous characters who shaped New Orleans and the ghosts they left behind. Grab a cocktail at any stop and bring it with you. Comfortable shoes recommended.

If you want ghost stories without giving up your evening at the bar, this is your tour. The guides are colorful, the stories are dark, and the evening is yours.

Frequently Asked Questions

What bars do you visit on the tour?+

The specific bars vary from night to night depending on crowds, private events, and guide routes. What we can promise is four haunted French Quarter bars with real history and great atmosphere. The variety keeps things fresh for our guides and means repeat guests get a different experience.

Are drinks included in the ticket price?+

No, cocktails are not included. You'll have the opportunity to purchase drinks at each bar we visit. This is New Orleans, so feel free to grab a go-cup and bring it with you between stops.

What if I don't drink alcohol? Can I still enjoy the tour?+

Absolutely. The tour is about the ghost stories and history as much as the bars themselves. Non-drinkers are welcome, and most bars offer non-alcoholic options. You're paying for the guided experience, not the drinks.

How much walking is involved?+

Not much. It's a leisurely stroll through the French Quarter. We're talking blocks, not miles. Definitely not a hike. Comfortable shoes are still a good idea.

What happens if it rains?+

Tours run rain or shine. If you show up in the rain, your guide will be there. We only cancel if conditions become dangerous, and in that case you'll receive a full refund or the option to reschedule.

Do people jump out at you on the tour?+

No. This is not a Halloween haunted house. These are tours based on real events in New Orleans history. The city's actual history is stranger than anything we could make up.

Will we actually experience anything paranormal?+

Some people do, some don't. But definitely bring your camera. Guests often capture things in their photos that weren't visible when the picture was taken.

Does the ghost tour go inside the LaLaurie Mansion?+

No. The LaLaurie Mansion is a privately owned home. Our tours stop outside and your guide tells the story from the street.

How long is the walk?+

Our walking tours are about an hour and 45 minutes long. You generally cover about a mile of ground. It's an easy walk and you stop a lot to hear stories.

Where do we park for the tour?+

There are paid parking lots on Basin St. and on the corner of Conti and N. Rampart St. Prices vary depending on what's happening in the city that day. If you're staying at a French Quarter hotel, we recommend walking to the tour site.
