Absolutely loved this tour - Booking Was easy to book online. Entrance Pirate was waiting for us at the door. It was almost dusk when we met him so it was like stepping into the past. Tour He explained why he doesn't use pirate voice (google it). Very knowledgeable. We saw a side of the French Quarter that we had never seen. The story/narrative was compelling and kept our attention -- including my teenage sons who never once checked their phones. Overall Excellent choice. My mom, the boys and I loved this experience.

An unmissable tour that you’ll remember - One of the best city history walking tours we have taken in any city. Our guide was smart, funny, extremely knowledgeable and engaging. We learned so much about actual pirates and their impact on New Orleans. We were extremely pleased to have found this tour and not wasted time and money on ghosts and voodoo and other esoteric topics. This is a different take on familiar sites such as Jackson Square, Pirates’ Alley and Lafitte’s Blacksmith’s Shop.

Recommend this tour - We truly enjoyed this tour. Our tour guide dressed in “movie magic” pirates dress but was very true to the “real” pirates stories and information. The facts and information was interesting to hear. The tour guide was definitely passionate about what he does. I do recommend this tour. Our tour guide stayed afterwards for quite a while talking with us and even did photos. Definitely recommend.

A REAL pirates tour! - We did 9 different tours during our week in New Orleans and I think this one was my favorite. It wasn’t as much walking or destination based as the others but our tour guide was energetic, funny, informative and honest about the stories of the pirates in the quarter. I really liked how he told us the legends but then also gave us the straight facts. Hearing stories is fun but knowing the most accurate information is invaluable!
