Why take this tour?

The French Quarter has always been home to powerful women—but some of them left behind more than just their reputations. On the Bad Bitches of New Orleans Tour, you’ll walk through centuries of crime, chaos, and haunting as told through the city’s most infamous and formidable women.

 This 90-minute adults-only tour features stories of voodoo priestesses, serial killers, brothel queens, and women who carved their legacies in blood and legend. Hear the vicious saga of Mary Jane “Bricktop” Jackson, the red-haired axe-wielding terror of Gallatin Street. Meet the cunning Baroness Pontalba, who survived an assassination attempt and reshaped Jackson Square. Visit the house of Marie Laveau, where voodoo rituals may still echo, and uncover the brothel-born origins of the House of the Rising Sun.

 With stops that include haunted hotels, former red-light districts, and courtyards with secrets buried beneath them, this tour is a fierce, funny, and unapologetically raw look at the Crescent City's baddest women—and the spirits they may have left behind.
