Spirits - The Cocktail And Ghost Crawl
The advantage to having done more pub crawls than anyone else in the city, is that I have the widest range of classic bars, and the best bartenders in the city, at my disposal. These people are my friends. New Orleans is a cocktail town, with reason. This is an evening of classic concoctions, ghost stories, city history, drinking tales, and voodoo. I'll tie all of these points together into a cohesive experience of chills, laughs, and must-have drink suggestions. This is still well-researched history, but I'm here to make it fun. Let me save you from the dull recitation of New Orleans' bullet points - I put on a show. This is storytelling, and through these stories, I will help you connect with one of the most amazing cities on the planet.
I will balance the tour locations based on group interest. This is an introduction to some of the important signature drinks of New Orleans. However, this is definitely unpretentious. You are not required to buy anything, drink what you wish. In between bars, we will visit some historical, and haunted locations, while I weave all the content into a well-rounded evening. This is perfect for groups with a wide range of interests...except vampire stories, I don't do vampire stories, those are fabrications.
Also,it is logistically easier to let you buy your own drinks, I don't provide them. Group sizes are small under 16, and not city law 28.
Frenchmen Street Live Music Pub Crawl
Get ready to PARTY!! This 3-hour private tour will take you beyond Bourbon Street to the music clubs, and cocktail bars of Frenchmen Street, the live music capital of New Orleans. Frenchmen Street has been featured in many films and shows such as HBO's Treme, The Simpsons, and the hit movie Girl's Trip. Drake also shot a large portion of his video for 'In My Feelings' on Frenchmen Street.

Bring your Camera and Dancing shoes
Ring make-and-take with local artist
We'll get comfortable in our studio barn/workshop area, where you'll grab a glass of wine, a local craft beer, or glass of fresh spring water from our bar before we get started. After a brief tour of our little urban farm, I'll do a quick demonstration to show you the techniques and procedures for making several different styles of rings. Then you'll get busy working hands-on with different tools and materials to create your own custom, unique ring exactly to your liking. I can provide as much support as necessary to help you to feel comfortable with the process and to create your desired outcome. We'll seal/finish your ring if necessary and you'll take it home with you at the end of the session.

Paca Picnic!
Pack a Picnic! We'll meet you at the gate! Upon entering you will most likely be greeted by our female alpacas who are typically very curious about a new car arriving. We'll begin our tour by hand feeding these beauties, then move on to our small animal paddock where you will meet our sheep and goats. You will be able to hand feed them through the fence as they are a bit pushy. We’ll meet our male alpacas last, give them some yummy treats then wrap up our tour. You’re welcome to walk the property and enjoy the peace & quiet and have your own picnic. We have tables and chairs for you to use.

spontaneously giving you direction based off my creative eye and inspiration. I will not be giving history lessons, but only a true experience.

Streets of Sin Tour - Dark History / True Crime Experience
This is a tour for adults only (17+).
I don't pull punches on the grim and gory details of the stories you'll hear. This tour explores the disturbing secrets and truths about New Orleans, going back to the founding of the colony.
The city’s sinister energy is buried deep inside every brick, nail, piece of steel and wood that makes up what is known as the Streets of Sin. On any given night you may hear stories about Notorious Sex Workers, Mob Bosses, Love Gone Wrong, Wicked Fires, Crime Conspiracy, Human Torture and Sick Twisted Murder...the stories are always evolving. This experience will immerse you into the deep Sin of New Orleans on levels no movie, podcast or other tour could ever imagine. Leave behind all the partying and music for a bit and join us on the “Empire of Sin/Way of the Wicked Walking Tour.”
The tour covers approximately a mile of distance over 1.5 hours, but you won't be counting steps. There will be no less than seven stops of haunted sites and former crime scenes. These stories are unlike any other tour for the simple fact that we dive deep into the specific details of some of the goriest stories New Orleans has to offer. Which is why this is an adult only experience. If you want a PG-13 experience with kids, my tour is not for you.

Dive Bar Crawl and Live Music
This tour has been a favorite of visitors and locals alike for a few years now.
We start the tour at the Milan Lounge a great bar nestled between residential homes and famous as a Cubs Bar. From there we start the tour which includes some cool history and points of interest along the way. (Of course since it’s New Orleans we can walk with drinks in hand)
Next stop is Ms Mae’s which is open 24/7. This bar had a major upgrade during COVID and now has an awesome back patio to hang out for a while. Next is an iconic small true dive bar Brothers 3. (Both Mae’s and B3 are cash only so please bring some cash)
From there we either head to Le Bon Temps Roulee which is also 24 hour bar with an awesome small live music room in the back or to the amazing Tipitinas which is one of the greatest music venues in the city for live music.
Things to note:
We stay as long as the group likes at each venue. If everyone is having a great time we stay longer, so basically we play it by ear. Dates and times for this tour can be customized to work for your schedule.
Looking forward to hosting you for this super fun experience.
Cheers
