Q&A

Q: Is this tour good for kids? I'm wondering if my 10-year-old would enjoy it or be too freaked out.

A: The tour is definitely suitable for older kids, but it really depends on their maturity level. Some might find the idea of cemeteries and ghost stories a bit spooky, while others might love it! Just check with the tour guide beforehand if you’re unsure—they’re pretty great about accommodating families.

Q: What's the best time of year to do this tour? I want to avoid the heat.

A: Fall and spring are definitely the best times! The weather is milder, so you won't be sweating buckets. Summer can be super hot and humid, but if you go then, try to schedule earlier in the morning or later in the evening.

Q: Can I reschedule if something comes up? I’m really considering this as a gift but want flexibility.

A: Yes, you can reschedule! Just contact the tour provider at least 24 hours in advance and they’re usually very accommodating. It's a great way to make sure the gift is perfect for your friend or family member!

Just did the Cemetery Tour—what an experience!

I recently went on the Eternal Echoes cemetery tour in New Orleans and wow, it was surreal! Starting in the French Quarter really set the mood with ghost stories and history. The guide was super knowledgeable and funny. My favorite part was St. Louis Cemetery #3—so much rich history there! Highly recommend it for anyone interested in the darker side of NOLA. Perfect gift for my history-loving friend!

Thinking of gifting this cemetery tour—any tips?

I’m considering getting the Eternal Echoes tour for my boyfriend’s birthday. He loves spooky stuff! What should I know before booking? Is it a good idea for someone who's never done a tour like this?
