Our guide, Trish was the most memorable part of the tour. She was very knowledgeable, enthusiastic and authentic. The energy at the Destrehan Plantation was very heavy the moment we set foot on the property. The energy got lighter towards the end of the tour. I was most intrigued to learn that not only were slaves bought and sold but they were also leased according to a document on display at the Destrehan main house. I left feeling satisfied with getting my money's worth for this tour. I definitely recommend this tour.

Great plantation and history. I learned so much. We did catch some orbs and communicated with the little boy who died in the house! The dosing rods are unbelievable.
Make sure you get to the meeting point (voodoo tavern) early to grab some delicious food and drinks. The swamp water and voodoo juice are amazing!

Tricia and her team did a great job! Fun to do this at night. We didn’t have any ghost experience… but learning about the history was enjoyable

Wow, wow, wow. I cannot say enough about how fantastic this tour was! Trish was a phenomenal guide and she really immersed us in the extensive history of the house, the land, and the people who lived there. She was ao knowledgeable about everything, and created such an incredible evening for us. The chance to interact with spirits was one I will never forget. I connected with a very eager and chatty spirit, and my dowsing rods were moving non stop! I couldn't believe how much activity I had! This tour was simply incredible and definitely the highlight of my trip to New Orleans!
