Jonathan Weiss:
Historian, Storyteller, New Orleans Native

Jonathan Weiss has spent decades walking the streets of the Old French Quarter, digging into archives, and uncovering the true stories that other tours gloss over or get wrong. He doesn’t embellish — he doesn’t need to. The real history of New Orleans is already stranger, darker, and more fascinating than any invented legend. Jonathan’s expertise earned him the role of lead consultant for The Originals TV series, bringing authentic New Orleans history and lore to a global audience. On tour, he does the same for you: building narrative from fact, pulling you into the lives of the city’s restless dead, and answering every question you bring.
