This tour was really fun! Our guide, Gomez, was an amazing storyteller and really fun to talk to. We stopped four or five times as we walked from bar to bar--always in the shade--to hear stories about murders in New Orleans. Multiple times, Gomez gave us key terms to search on our phones so we could see images or articles about the crimes he was telling us about! He also showed us some cool things, like locations where "Interivew with a Vampire" and "American Horror Story" were filmed. The bars we stopped at were great, too. Drinks were really reasonably priced, and the bartenders were all super friendly. Gomez even sang for us at the end of the tour!

Gomez was an amazing guide and gave us a totally unique experience that incorporated his own personal inputs. He took us to some great bars and recommend some really nice cocktails along the way. His stories were always backed up with his sources and ensured we were very well informed about each crime.
