Amazing
Amazing witchcraft tour. Our guide Lacey was nice and knowledgeable. The route was about a mile long with lots of stops for stories and photos. We learned about the local witch group as well as other famous people associated with the area. Did I mention the properties are absolutely stunning? 5 star tour.

Great but hot
Great tour but in done during the hottest part of the day 1-3 pm so in the summer months bring umbrella/frozen water bottle/fan to keep cool

Morgan was an amazing guide on a fantastic tour
I was really excited about this tour, and our guide Morgan lived up to my expectations and went beyond them. Although she kept the privacy of many of the families that she mentioned during the tour, it was clear that she has knowledge and experience about the history of witchcraft in the Garden District that an average guide might not. I learned so much during the tour. She was also great about helping to keep us in the shade as much as possible on an extremely hot day and made sure we all had water before we left. I would absolutely take another tour with Morgan!
Operator response
Thank you for joining us on the Witches Coven Walking Tour in New Orleans! We’re thrilled Morgan exceeded your expectations. Her personal knowledge, respect for the families whose stories we share, and commitment to authentic history are such important parts of this tour. We’re also glad she kept everyone as comfortable as possible in that New Orleans heat. We’d love to welcome you back for another tour with Morgan! 🖤🌙

Great tour, but know what you are capable of.
Lots of information, lots of great houses, but there is not a lot of places to sit and catch your breath. This might have been better in the cooler hours in the morning or later evening. That being said, it was a great tour and Hannah Kate did an amazing job!
Operator response

We completely understand about the heat and limited seating along the route, especially during a New Orleans summer. We appreciate your feedback and your kind words about Hannah Kate! 🖤🌙🏡

Get Morgan as your tour guide!
Morgan is awesome! She is knowledgeable and has researched very thoroughly the witches history in the garden district. You will learn a lot and she makes the tour fun. It was a great day to go on my birthday as she explained the origin of the “Birthday Pin” in The French quarter.

This is a must do!
Hannah Kate was amazing. It felt like a stroll with an old friend. She was knowledgeable, friendly, approachable. Great vibes.
I specifically went for witch history. It was my favorite part of the whole trip and I had been looking forward to the tour for 10 months. I was -not- disappointed. Architecture, history, popculture, gossip (which is a must in the south) . If you love the history of witchcraft, this is a must for your Nola bucket list.
Muchly appreciated all the effort you went through to keep us in the shade as much as possible
