Incredible Tourguide!
Hannah Kate was such an incredible guide across the spooky French Quarter and Bourbon Street! She had so many incredibly insightful facts about NOLA, straight from a local! Not only was she eager to share her vast knowledge about the spooky things NOLA has to offer, but she was receptive to any and all questions which proves her knowledge goes beyond. I would recommend this tour to anyone, specially book Hannah Kate as your guide!

New Orleans Premier Ghost, Voodoo and Vampire Walking Tour

Spooky Rob was awesome
Spooky Rob was an excellent tour guide, full of historic information and witty commentary. He took us to all the good spots, and kept a pace that was easy to match. In addition, there were several times where locals passed and recognized him. That good rapport added to the overall experience as it made the tour feel like our guide was well known and reputable. I would definitely recommend spooky Rob to all who choose to take this tour. That does not take away from the professionalism of the other guides who were very helpful and kind during check-in. Thanks again for the great time and the memorable experience. I will definitely be using this company again the next time I come to tour New Orleans, and recommending y’all to all my friends!!!

Small-Group Airboat Swamp Tour with Downtown New Orleans Pickup
KBB5720, Sep 2026
DO NOT HESITATE
I have been on 2 tours previously with another company. When I went to book with the company again, they added $30 on for EACH person for pick up. OMG! This led me to The Louisiana Tour Company. I booked a small group tour for 3 people INCLUDING hotel pick up for much less. The day before the tour, I was notified that the airboat was not working and we were given the option of a larger group tour with a partial refund or another day. We decided to go with the larger tour. Hotel pick up was on time and our driver was entertaining and personable. Upon arrival, we checked in and waited to board. Our guide was Tre and he was great. The larger group experience made No difference because we couldn't imagine a better time. Tre took us to some beautiful areas on the swamps and answered all our questions. Of course there were many alligators, some close up. The airboat ride was REALLY a lot of fun! But wait, this is the most important reason that I highly recommend this company. On our ride back to New Orleans, my friend realized that she lost her phone. I called the company and her phone was on the boat. They went the extra mile, literally, and dropped it off at our hotel a few hours later. WHO DOES THAT??? I HIGHLY recommend The Louisiana Tour Company for the overall experience and customer service. P.S. I received the partial refund that day.....amazing

The title really says it all. Our guide John was spectacular! Loved his style of story telling, I loved all of the fun facts we learned on our tour, I actually felt I walked away with a lot of history of New Orleans as well so that was an unexpected treat! If my friends come to NOLA they’ll know exactly which tour guide to ask for.
