About the Sin & Tonic Pub Crawl

Behind the French Quarter’s wrought-iron balconies are stories the postcards leave out. The Sin & Tonic Pub Crawl is our true-crime night in New Orleans, taking you to infamous crime scenes, scandalous locations and hidden corners where the city’s most gruesome tales unfolded.

Meet your guide at 809 Royal Street and set off between French Quarter bars. Order whatever you’re drinking at each stop while your guide weaves stories of murder, betrayal, notorious criminals and shocking unsolved mysteries.

It’s a wickedly fun evening of sin, spirits and scandal — made for true-crime fans, history lovers and any group that likes its nights out with a dark streak.

What to expect

  • Visit infamous crime scenes and scandalous locations in the French Quarter
  • Hear stories of murder, betrayal and notorious criminals
  • Explore shocking unsolved mysteries behind the Quarter’s historic facades
  • Order your own drinks at each bar along the way

Questions

Frequently asked questions

Are drinks included?

No — drinks aren’t included in the $34.99 ticket. You order and pay for your own at each bar, so you drink exactly what you like, as much or as little as you like. Your ticket covers your guide, the route and the stories.

Can people under 21 attend?

No. This is a pub crawl, so every guest must be 21 or older, and we check IDs. If someone in your group is under 21, the New Orleans Food Tour and New Orleans Dessert Tour both welcome guests ages 12 and up.

Which bars do we visit?

We can’t give away all of our secrets just yet! The crawl visits 4–5 locations. We don’t guarantee specific locations, because we sometimes have to change a stop at the last minute for reasons beyond our control.

How big are the groups?

Small. Pub crawls are limited to 20 guests, so there’s room to chat with your guide and get to know the group.

Can we book a private tour?

Yes. Any of our tours can be made private: the whole tour for just your group, with your own guide and no public guests. We can personalize it — including different starting and ending locations and non-standard start times. Group size follows the tour’s usual capacity. Contact us for a custom quote; private tours are booked with 50% down, with the remaining 50% due 14 days before your tour. All sales on private tours are final. If your plans change after booking, we’ll apply what you’ve paid as a credit toward a tour in any of our cities.

How much walking is involved?

Every Revelry tour involves about three-quarters of a mile of walking in total, spread across the walks between stops. Wear comfortable shoes. If you have questions about mobility or access, call us at 855-938-2211 before you book and we’ll talk you through the route.

What happens if it rains?

Tours run rain or shine — almost the entire experience takes place indoors. If rain is in the forecast, bring an umbrella for the walks between stops.

What if the weather is too bad to run the tour?

If the weather keeps us from running your tour, you can reschedule. If rescheduling doesn’t work for you, you’ll receive a full refund.

Can I reschedule?

All sales are final, but you can reschedule your tour any time up to 12 hours before it starts. Tickets bought less than 12 hours before the start time are final sale and can’t be rescheduled.

Is there a money-back guarantee?

Yes. If you complete your tour and didn’t enjoy it, you’ll receive a 100% refund.
