French Quarter History & Haunted Walking Tour — New Orleans Ghosts, Voodoo, and Architecture

A sultry evening presses against the ironwork of Bourbon Street as the group assembles by Lafitte's Blacksmith Shop Bar. Streetlamps throw amber circles on the bricks; a guide’s voice threads through the chatter and the clink of glasses, switching between documentary cadence and a storyteller’s timing. The tour moves like a local parlor: conversational, occasionally bawdy, always forward. You’ll pass under balconies draped with shadow and filament lights and learn that the city’s past isn’t just in plaques—it’s in the narrow alleys, the creaking shutters and the way the River seems to pull the city toward itself.
