Hottest Hell Tours, a highly-ranked, premier New Orleans’ walking tour company is seeking multiple tour guides. This is a perfect student job for any history, theatre, film, literature, English, anthropology, or public speaking major!

Are you a natural-born entertainer who loves the outdoors and meeting new people? 

Do you adore New Orleans and the French Quarter’s majestic surroundings?

If it’s a resounding ‘YES’ to all of the above, let’s talk! 

Who are we? 

We are Hottest Hell Tours, a collection of local historians with paranormal fascinations. We don’t sell cookie-cutter history or cheap scares, but rather carefully researched, premium travel experiences to an enthusiastic “adults only’ (ages 18+) audience. This practice has made us one of the Top 5 tours in New Orleans. 

Whom we’d like to meet:

 Our remarkable guides are the backbone of our company ethos, so only the most dedicated people/tour guides need apply. The ideal applicant will be personable, articulate, punctual, and passionate about New Orleans culture! If you have a soft spot for occult studies, true crime, and/or the supernatural, this is one job where those interests will be celebrated instead of judged from around the water cooler. 

The Perks: 

  • Full-time pay for part-time hours

  • Never work more than 20 hours a week and work as little as 8 hours a week!

  • Work after classes and still be home by 10:30pm at the latest!

  • Co-Owned by a master’s level historian and UNO alumnus.

  • YOU pick your schedule

  • Diversity and inclusion-focused company 

Desired Skills: 

  • Attention to the safety and overall comfort of our guests is vital 

  • Motivated guiding of our international and domestic guests on strolling tours throughout New Orleans, specifically the beautiful streets of the French Quarter 

  • Tour guiding experience is preferred but not a prerequisite

  • Theatrical or public speaking background preferred, but not required 

  • Tourism background and the desire for a long-term future in the Tourism Industry are essential 

  • Candidates should be US citizens and ideally hold a driver’s license

License Requirements:
