The guides here clearly make the experience. Names like Yahyah Universe, Christian, Bob, Thorn, and Chrissy come up repeatedly, with reviewers genuinely enthusiastic about their storytelling abilities and deep knowledge of New Orleans history, architecture, and supernatural lore. People describe feeling more connected to the city after their tours, which speaks to the guides' talent for bringing stories to life in an engaging, personal way. They offer several different tour options, from Garden District walks to comprehensive five-in-one tours covering vampires, voodoo, true crime, and ghosts. The pacing seems comfortable even on longer walking tours, with well-timed breaks built in. One negative review mentioned a guide whose style felt more like loud comedy than the spooky atmosphere they expected, so if you're hoping for genuinely eerie vibes, you might want to clarify which tour fits that mood. Overall though, the vast majority of visitors leave thrilled with what they learned and the charismatic guides who shared it with them.
If I could give Yahyah 6+ stars I would. We did the full package vampire, ghosts, true crime, history, and voodoo tour. My friends and I were so blown away by this tour and YahYah's storytelling and left feeling more connected to New Orleans than before (coming from someone who was once local to Louisiana). Yahyah truly has a gift for recounting history and making you feel at home, as long as you're engaged and show up ready for a great time! She said her tour days are typically Wednesdays though we got lucky to get her Saturday and I'm so happy we did. Highlight of the bachelorette party!
