New Orleans pairs three centuries of documented French and Spanish colonial history with above-ground burial practices found in few other American cities, and the routes here use both. St. Louis Cemetery No. 1 and No. 3 anchor the cemetery category, while the French Quarter's narrow streets and courtyards carry the ghost-walk and vampire-tour routes. Operators blend the documented record with their own haunting claims.
Ghost walks, vampire tours and pub crawls run after dark, while cemetery tours keep daytime hours because the cemeteries close at night. Demand peaks in October around Halloween, so booking one to two weeks ahead is wise then. Each live listing posts current schedules and start times.
Fourteen tours fill this comparison, and a short list of places sits behind most of their stories. The walking ghost tours and vampire walks work the streets of the French Quarter, departing from points near Jackson Square and covering the LaLaurie Mansion, the Casket Girls legend and the legacy of Marie Laveau. The cemetery tours step inside St. Louis Cemetery No. 1 and No. 3. Pub crawls pair ghost stories with bar stops, and the two bus tours carry the route out toward the Garden District.

A French Quarter hotel puts you within walking distance of most ghost walks, vampire tours and pub crawls. The bus tours pick up at most hotels in the French Quarter and Business District, so a stay in either neighborhood works well. Confirm the exact meeting point on the live booking page before you head out.
214 Royal St, New Orleans, LA 70130 (heart of the French Quarter, a short walk to Jackson Square and the St. Louis Cemetery tour meeting points)
A French Quarter landmark with a haunted reputation that long predates the ghost-tour boom: guest and staff accounts describe a young boy spotted in the corridors and an elevator that seems to stop on its own. The hotel treats these as legend rather than documented history, but its location puts it within easy reach of the French Quarter ghost walks that draw on the same lore.
roughly $200-$260+ per night (indicative snapshot 2026-09-25; swings with season and events)
Check rates717 Orleans St, New Orleans, LA 70116 (French Quarter, steps from Bourbon Street and Jackson Square)
The Bourbon Orleans stands on the site of a historic French Quarter ballroom and later served as a convent and orphanage under the Sisters of the Holy Family. Its detailed-history page and travel press both document a reputation for several ghosts from that era, including children and nuns tied to the yellow fever period.
roughly $150-$200+ per night (indicative snapshot 2026-09-25)
Check rates919 Royal St, New Orleans, LA 70116 (French Quarter, close to the French Quarter ghost-tour meeting points on Royal and Decatur)
Built on the site of a boys' boarding school destroyed in the 1794 Great New Orleans Fire, which killed five boys. The hotel's own About Us page acknowledges that history and long-running guest reports of a child ghost near room 208, a story also documented by local haunted-history sites.
roughly $100-$140+ per night (indicative snapshot 2026-09-25)
Check ratesRates climb around Halloween and Mardi Gras, then soften in the quieter months. The live booking page shows the price for your nights.
Operators set starting prices and shift them with demand, so any quoted figure goes stale fast. As a general pattern, the vampire walks and pub crawls sit at the lower end, while the bus tours cost most. Each live listing quotes the exact price for your date before you pay.
Most tours on this page last around two hours. The briefest option is a 45-minute walk through St. Louis Cemetery No. 1, while the longest outing, a city and cemetery bus tour, runs 2 hours 15 minutes. Everything else falls between those marks.
