Trish was an amazing host, she is very knowledgeable and funny. My boys (teenagers) had a great time and loved Trish. I would recommend this tour and if you have Trish as your guide you won't be disappointed.
Driver and tour guide were great! Charles (driver) was very knowledgeable about the city and gave history and recommendations for restaurants. Allen (tour guide) had great pictures to share and information about the history of the plantation.
Staff is friendly and very helpful and try their best to make sure you have an exceptional experience.
Wonderful balance of history/education with the supernatural NOLA is known for! Definitely a highlight of my 20ish visits through New Orleans areas. It's not too spooky for upper elementary+ aged kids to enjoy- mine did! However, I recommend avoiding kids under 12y or those that don't already enthusiastically embrace ghost/spooky things. Even well-behaved, kids are just...louder! I worried my 9yo questions disturbed the ambiance for anyone seeking silence on somber grounds (...I'll forever let that potential parenting annoyance riddle me with anxiety & remorse). Aside, our tour guide took groups' photos at the front. Turns out, she accidentally took unflattering front-camera selfies instead. Which we're not even mad about because that's so precious. TL:DR Great experience, do it!
Amazing tour guide Lots of history and culture I’d do it again especially in the Deep South I hope others have the same experience
Oh my goodness I’d recommend this to anyone! Trish was the best and even gave us a little time to use copper rods to talk to the dead as we were the last tour of the night! If you’re sensitive to spirits like I am, you can feel prickles and tingles as you walk through the house as the ghosts let you know quickly who rules the roost. To add onto the greatness of this tour, Trish was funny and gave us amazing and harrowing facts about the land and also let us know where to take photos to catch apparitions. Ask to see her photos, you’ll never be the same again!
To start off, the tour was good. However, the bus ride over there was miserable. The bus did not have or had very little A/C. The ride over was about 30 minutes in what I presume to be 130°F heat inside the bus. By the time we got off the bus we were all throwing up. This in turn made it hard to enjoy the experience and the rest of the evening. So It kinda ruined the night and the next day. So be warned that if you do this tour in the summer, bring a fan and lots of water for the ride to the plantation.
Trish was our tour guide and she was absolutely amazing! She knew the history of the plantation and were able to free roam the grounds. Would recommend this tour!!! It was beautiful and very haunted!
I absolutely loved my experience Trish was so funny and sweet she made the experience fun for our big group of 7.
