Talking To The Dead On Tour
Book on Viator →Operated by Psychic Medium Marie · Bookable on Viator
A Bourbon Street seance sounds like a gamble. Talking To The Dead On Tour in New Orleans centers on spiritual readings with Psychic Medium Marie, including an audience-style presentation described as talking from the mouth of the Living Dead. I like the private group feel, and I especially like that you get photos included and sent to your email afterward.
One thing to factor in: this experience lists several basics as not provided, including seating, venue, and equipment. So if you’re picturing a turn-key setup, you’ll want to confirm what’s handled for your specific booking and what you may need to bring.
You’ll meet at 908 Bourbon St with a start time of 8:00 pm, and pickup is available so you can choose your pickup location. The experience runs about 2 to 4 hours (with the reading itself listed at around 2 hours), and you’ll get confirmation within 48 hours of booking when available.

What You’re Really Booking on Bourbon Street

This is not a museum-style tour and it’s not a performance you watch from a distance. You’re booking an evening that’s built around a spiritual reading experience with Psychic Medium Marie, including an audience viewing format and the themed element described as talking from the mouth of the Living Dead. The tone matters here: this is about receiving messages, asking questions, and leaving with a story that feels personal.
Why that’s appealing for a lot of people: New Orleans is already a city where the supernatural feels like part of the culture. This adds a focused, structured version of that idea—an event with a start time, an organized setting, and a medium who guides what happens next. It’s also customizable by the buyer, which signals you’re not just picking a fixed script.
The price is the headline number. At $1,095 per person, it’s definitely not a casual night out. But the package includes items that can make the math look different if you’re comparing it to booking a private medium plus travel and lodging separately. It also offers flexible group options that can reduce cost per person if you’re traveling with a small circle.

Timing and Location: 8:00 pm at 908 Bourbon St
Your meeting point is 908 Bourbon St, New Orleans, and the activity ends back at the same location. The start time is set for 8:00 pm, so plan your evening like you would for a ticketed show—arrive a little early, settle in, and avoid rushing.
Pickup is offered, and you can choose your pickup location. That’s handy in New Orleans because “getting there” can be as annoying as “being there,” especially on busy blocks. Since the experience is listed as near public transportation, you can also plan an easy route if you’d rather not rely on rideshare the whole way.
Duration is listed as 2 to 4 hours. In practice, the spiritual reading itself is listed as about 2 hours, so think of the extra time as buffer for setup, the flow of the event, and any questions tied to your customized reading.
How the Reading Works (And What to Expect Emotionally)

The core of this experience is an audience viewing spiritual reading, where Psychic Medium Marie delivers messages in a guided format. The event is described as being customized by the buyer, which means your reading experience may be shaped around what you want to focus on—questions, themes, or who you’re hoping to connect with.
From the stories people share about experiences like this, the most common theme is emotional impact—people describing tears during readings when they feel a connection to a loved one, or feeling that the message hits something only they would understand. It’s also common for people to talk about clarity arriving in an unexpected way, including advice about purpose or life direction that feels practical rather than vague.
You might also notice that the reading can include options for different lengths. In one example shared from a similar visit pattern, someone chose a short reading as a sample and later returned for a longer or different type of session. If you like control over pacing, that’s worth considering when you’re deciding how much time to allocate.
Stop-by-Stop: What Happens at New Orleans

This experience is centered in New Orleans, and the itinerary is effectively one main stop: the reading event itself.
Stop 1: The New Orleans seance-style spiritual reading
You’ll gather at the meeting point and then move into the reading portion, where the audience viewing format plays a role. The event is described as customized by the buyer, and it’s framed as spiritual readings delivered in a themed way, including the mention of talking from the mouth of the Living Dead.
What makes this stop special is the combination of structure and personalization:
- Structure: a scheduled, time-bound session that feels like an event.
- Personalization: your questions and focus can be shaped by what you want to explore.
What could slow things down or affect your comfort:
- You may want to confirm what’s available on-site versus what you must provide. The experience lists that seating, venue, decorations, and equipment are not included. If you have mobility needs or you’re bringing a group with different comfort levels, plan around the possibility that setup may be more basic than a typical tour venue.
Price and Value: Why $1,095 Might Make Sense for Some

At $1,095 per person, this is priced like a premium private experience, not like a standard tour ticket. The question is whether you’re getting enough included to justify that.
Here’s what’s explicitly included:
- Pick your own city and psychic medium travels to you
- Travel expenses included
- All accommodations included
- All accommodations included (again, included in the package)
- Photos included and sent by email
- Optional audio and video recordings
- Ability to pick your group
- Group seance same price up to 5 people
That last part can matter a lot for value. If you split cost across a small group, the per-person price drops while keeping the reading private and focused. And because travel expenses and accommodations are listed as included, this package can beat the common DIY approach where you’d pay for a medium, airfare, hotel, and then try to build a venue.
Possible value mismatch:
- If you’re traveling solo and expecting everything to be turn-key with full event production (seating, decorations, equipment), you may feel the price is high relative to what’s actually included on those items. The experience lists those as not included, so your comfort level will depend on what you’re hoping for.
Group Options: Private Reading, Small Party, or Big Audience

One of the most flexible parts of this experience is how it scales.
For small groups:
- There’s a group seance same price up to 5 people option. That’s great if you want a private circle for couples, friends, or family.
For larger events:
- There are optional attending viewers up to 500. That suggests the booking can support a bigger audience presence, not just a tiny room.
And you can pick your own city and pick your group, which hints at customization beyond a fixed schedule.
What to consider before you book:
- Bigger audience plans can change the feel. Even if your personal reading is private, the overall mood may be louder or more performance-like when observers are included. If you want a quiet, question-forward session, a smaller group is usually the better fit.
The Photo and Recording Stuff You’ll Actually Care About

Some experiences forget the souvenirs. This one doesn’t.
- Photos are included and sent to your email.
- Audio and video recordings are listed as optional.
That matters because the “memory” of a spiritual reading isn’t always the same as a photo of a landmark. But photos help document the night, and optional recordings can give you a chance to revisit details later.
One practical tip: if you care about recordings, decide ahead of time. Optional items can affect how the session is handled, and you’ll want to make sure your preferences are clear before the reading begins.
Comfort and Practical Setup: What’s Not Included

Here’s the part to read carefully, because it affects your expectations.
Not included items are listed as:
- Client provide round table
- No decorations
- No seating
- No venue included
- No equipment included
That doesn’t automatically mean the reading will be uncomfortable, but it does mean this isn’t presented as a full production package. You may need to plan for basic event needs depending on where and how your booking is set up.
If you’re organizing for a group, I’d treat this like you’re hosting an event: ask what’s included at the location being used, and what you need to supply if you’re doing a custom city setup. If you’re bringing elderly relatives, or people who dislike standing, you’ll want seating clarity early.
Who This Fits Best in New Orleans

This experience is best for people who want more than haunted-house entertainment. It fits if you:
- Like spiritual readings and want a guided session with a medium
- Want a private group experience rather than a public tour
- Are okay with a night that can feel emotional and reflective
- Prefer experiences where the focus is personal questions rather than sightseeing checklists
It may not be the best fit if you:
- Want a strictly secular entertainment experience
- Expect a typical tour venue with full provided furniture and equipment
- Need very predictable outcomes from the reading format (spiritual messages are inherently subjective)
A Note on Customer Stories: Accuracy, Connection, and Kindness
Across the stories shared with this type of service, the most praised elements tend to be:
- Feeling that messages were specific enough to land personally
- Emotional connection, especially to family members and parents
- A medium who feels down to earth rather than overly dramatic
- A session pace where the medium takes time and makes sure answers are delivered before wrapping up
People also describe being treated with kindness, humor, candor, and love. That combination matters because it can turn a supernatural experience into something more like a heartfelt conversation with structure.
