Guide was terrific and Ivan the mule stories were funny and kept us laughing the whole time. Lots of interesting history.

Great experience

Lucas was a great tour guide filled with a lot of interesting information

Tourist

Our tour guide was Jonathon and our mule was Blondie.  They were both amazing!  We decided to splurge on the carriage ride and we are so happy that we did!  You can bring drinks and relax while you take the tour.  It was nice to take a break from walking and we got to see a lot of cool parts of the quarter that we wouldn't have otherwise seen.  JOnathon was very informative and a great story teller.  Our kids loved him! Would highly recommend!

Worth the Splurge

We really enjoyed the History & Haunts Nighttime Carriage Tour! Our tour guide, Shannon, & his mule, O'Reilly, did a great job. We arrived a few minutes early & were able to sit in the front seat of the carriage behind the tour guide which I think is the way to go. Shannon seemed to treat O'Reilly well which made me happy. He told us some really cool stories & I definitely learned some things & heard more details on parts of stories & lore I'd heard of already. Now that I'm back home I've been looking further into some of the stories he told via YouTube. Fascinating stuff. Highly recommend this tour through the fun & history filled French Quarter. Remember to tip your guide!

Fun Evening of History & Haunts!

It was great. Footloose gave us a good trip through the quarter. The stories were quite interesting!!! Fun thing to do for anyone!!

Haunted carriage ride

We took the History and Haunts Nighttime Carriage Ride with Sara and Armstrong.  Sara was awesome and filled us with fun history and facts of the hauntings and legends that surround the French Quarter.  Honestly she was one of the better guides we have ever had!  And it’s very obvious how much she really cares for her mule Armstrong!

It would have been a fantastic evening if we hadn’t had to wait for a group of girls in the 20s that were joining us.  You are suppose to arrive 15 min prior to your scheduled tour, these girls pulled up in a car right at departure time, which meant we waited another 5 minutes before we could leave.  The girls were loud, obnoxious, and a few were intoxicated.  They didn’t listen to our tour guide and and tried to talk over her narration, which resulted in our tour guide having to stop, wait, and then resume her talk repeatedly.  One girl wanted to get off at Lafitte’s Bar, but it wasn’t until we passed through Frenchman’s Street that they all decided to get off.  They didn’t even bother to tip our guide which is just plain rude.  We had a wonderful time afterwards but I feel like we missed out on a lot of cool info as our guide was interrupted repeatedly.  Sara was amazing and very professional and I can’t think of any way she could have handled these people better, but I wish there was a way to screen them out because we paid a lot of money to go on this tour and we waited in the cold and wind for them to arrive, only to have them ruin our night until they could find something more “entertaining “ to do.

History and Haunts Nighttime Carriage Tours

I really enjoyed the tour. Our guide was very knowledgeable and it's a very good value for the experience. The night ride down the famous streets of New Orleans and hearing the clip clip of the mule hooves was so nice. This was our 2nd trip on the Royal Carriages and it won't be our last. Definitely would recommend if in this town.

Very informative tour

We learned so much about the city and the history. It was very engaging with a light side of spooky real-life stories that were incredibly interesting and well told. It was fun. Our mule Rancher was also really sweet and he got lots of pets.

Had a great time

Great carriages and beautiful animals. The stories were good but I wish it held the haunt description more.

I highly recommend this tour. Loved our driver and horse too.

French Quarter Carriage Tour

Good experience! Lots of history! Driver was quite knowledgeable! Your website needs to be updated whenever changes are made. We spent time looking for a yellow umbrella to get out tickets ( as noted on the website) it’s now changed to “ red”

Carriage Ride

We had a great time! Lofton was an awesome driver with lots of interesting information. My only complaint is the price - I didn’t feel like there was something exceptional to make an hour carriage ride worth $300.

Cemetery tour

There are so many tours going on an once that it really takes away from the creep factor. Kendall had good stories, but he added way too many unimportant details and lost my attention. However, I got A LOT of pics with orbs, and even some with figures!

Too crowded, but a fun experience

Our tour guide was Fernando. He was energetic and knowledgeable. We had a group of 7 of us from Orlando and he took time to get to know us a bit. He does speak very fast which was a bit difficult at times. But that would not stop me from having him again as my tour guide if I were to go again. I highly recommend the night time cemetery tour and will tell my friends to take it when they are in New Orleans.

Taylor did an amazing job leading us around the French Quarter while telling us interesting historical facts at every turn.  The cemetery information was fascinating, even though we weren't able to enter due to ongoing litigation issues involving the Catholic Church.  I highly recommend this tour and be sure to ask for Taylor!!!

Our Guide Was Awesome!

The guide was fun and very informative about the history of the tour

Let me tell you how outstanding Sandra was who led our tour.   I think you would be hard pressed to find a more accommodating and knowledgeable person to lead these tours in Nea Orleans. I live here now but a friend was in town and we decided to do all the “tourist” things.  So glad we did.   Sandra deserves a raise I would highly recommend anyone to go on a tour she is leading.   Will definitely book again next time friends from out of town visit our city!!!

Dartanya lead us thoroughly through the history on the French Quarter and was very insightful and entertaining.  She didn’t rush, encouraged questions and opened my eyes to a different perspective of the area and history.  I really enjoyed the tour and would recommend it to others.  Just bring water as it’s warm even at night.

Excellent guide

The tour was ok. Much of the information was made up or very general. Our guide made it fun and was entertaining. Not scary or historical at all if that’s what you’re looking for.

Great tour , and the guide was very friendly and knowledgeable

New Orleans tour

I only had two days in New Orleans and wanted to explore the city as much as possible. I had a particular interest in learning about the impact of Hurricane Katrina. I spent the majority of my time seeing the French Quarter and some of the Garden District before taking this tour, which I truly enjoyed. Unexpectedly, this tour became the highlight of my trip. I so appreciated our guide’s knowledge of the city, the way he led the tour with truth and a sense of humor, and how he explained the devastation to this day due to Katrina as we traveled to different neighborhoods. It was a humbling experience that I feel I learned a lot from. 10/10 recommend
