Don’t do it
So we booked a 5:00 tour. We received a text asking if we could change to the 8:00. (Text sent around noon) I responded said yes with no response. I called no answer left message and received a text that we were put into the 8:00. At 7:03pm we receive a text that the 8:00 was being cancelled. The whole experience has been so disappointing and not handled well. Still waiting on our refund. Would NOT recommend
FYI: this was a special occasion on top of it.
Operator response
Lori, I'm sorry this is how your night went, and I want to explain what actually happened rather than leave you guessing.
You were the only booking on the 5:00. Rather than cancel on you, we asked if you'd move to the 8:00, which had several other guests and was set to run. You were flexible about it and we appreciated that. Those guests then cancelled right at 7:00pm, which again, made you the only guests booked on the experience. It's not quite the same experience without others, so we unfortunately had to cancel again. We notified you as soon as we knew.
That's a bad outcome and I understand it doesn't feel any better knowing the reason. What I'd change is the timing. Sitting on a confirmed booking until 7:03 gave you no room to plan something else, and we fully understand your frustration.
On the refund: bookings made through Viator are refunded by Viator, not by us. When we cancel a departure we notify them immediately and the refund is automatic, but the money moves on their schedule and we have no ability to speed it up or see where it sits. If it hasn't arrived, Viator's customer service is the fastest path. This trips up a lot of guests, and I wish we had more control over it than we do.
If you're back in New Orleans, email hello@crawlentertainment.com and we'll do our best to make it right.

Guide never showed up
Guide never showed up. Even after messaging and calling. It took for the mgr of the bar to give me his number to call then he replied. We were looking forward to it. But I still enjoyed the bar
Operator response
Jan, I'm sorry your night went this way. Here's the full picture from our end.
You and your guest were the only guests booked for 8:00. At 4:45, we texted to let you know and offered two other times we could move you to. When we didn't hear back we emailed at 6:17, and we called as well. We never reached you on any of the three, so the departure didn't run.
When you called us, our office had already closed for the evening, which is why you got a recording and ended up asking the bar manager for a number. That's the piece I'd change. If we have a departure on the schedule, someone should be reachable at that hour, and we're fixing that.
On the refund: bookings made through Viator are refunded by Viator, not by us. When we cancel a departure we notify them immediately and the refund is automatic, but the money moves on their schedule and we have no ability to speed it up or see where it sits. If it hasn't arrived, Viator's customer service is the fastest path.
Glad the bar looked after you. If you're back in New Orleans, email hello@crawlentertainment.com and we'll get you out with a group.

To pay 35 dollars per...
To pay 35 dollars per person to have someone walk you from bar to bar is ridiculous. I didn't expect that but wouldn't recommend.
Operator response
Hi Danisha! You forgot to mention the drinking games, free shots, drink specials, souvenir cup, and skip-the-line entry.
As we always say, the party comes from within; some people have it, and some people don't.
If you're reading this - come join the party and decide for yourself!

Don't Count On It Happening
Was very excited about this Pub Crawl. Provider didn't TEXT until 70 minutes before event that they were canceling. This meant it was too late to book an afternoon tour elsewhere for a Swamp Boat Trip. They knew earlier in the day that trip wasn't going to operate, thus completely wasted my afternoon in NOLA. Very upset that refund has not been provided, either.
So, don't count on going on this one!!
Did another tour day before, provider CALLED me to ensure my comfort as a solo female traveler with the male guide. Was an incredible experience.
Major difference in professionalism and communication levels!!!
Operator response
Hi Jennifer, thank you for sharing your feedback and we sincerely apologize for the inconvenience you experienced.
To provide some context, we had a group of 4 guests cancel 75 minutes before your tour start time, which left us with a single guest less than 90 minutes before departure. This put us in a genuinely difficult position. We have received feedback from guests on both sides of this situation. Some felt we should have cancelled when attendance was very low, and others were disappointed when we did cancel. We do our best to make the right call in the moment, though we understand that decision will not always feel right to everyone.
Regarding your refund, we notified Viator immediately to process it on your behalf. Because your booking was made through a third party platform, Viator collects payment and manages all refunds, cancellations, and reschedules directly. We understand this process can feel disconnected from us as the operator and we appreciate your patience.
We genuinely would have loved to suggest alternative options for your evening and were prepared to do so. We are sorry the experience ended the way it did and hope you will give us another opportunity to show you what we are truly capable of delivering.

We were not impressed
Could have just visited bars on our own. Bars were mostly dive bars, no clue what was in the shots we got, just tasted like sours and wasn't even sure there was alcohol in them. We got there at 4:45 as instructed, leader of the tour didn't get there until after the 5:00 start time. Not even sure who these people work for, our guide asked one of the bartenders at a bar we were at if she wanted to do a bar crawl later in the week????

Fun, fun!
I had alot of fun on this crawl. I've been to Nola many times and only had 8 hours to explore, so wanted to do something different. We had a small group which was nice, we all got to mingle with each other! And being solo was no problem going in & out of bourbon street bars. I liked that there were games at each place for us to enjoy and have something to do/talk about besides only drinking. AND I discovered new places as I hadn't been to ANY of the stops before. Definitely a fun time!
