My mother and I took the Tastebud Tours and Events. Our tour guide was Kim. He was amazing! Kim was knowledgeable on all things New Orleans. His stories were great. The food on the tour was amazing too! It was an all around good time! I wasn’t able to get pictures of everything because I gobbled it down quickly! We had a great time.
I really love that we learned about the history of New Orleans in addition to getting a taste of the infamous dishes the city is known for. I also loved that we got walk through the city and seeing all of the beautiful historic buildings. Roger was a great tour guide!
This was such a good tour, the food, drinks, and most notably the tour of the history of New Orleans was amazing. Roger is the best tour guide! He also told us about the birthday tradition of pinning a dollar to your shirt and the locals acknowledge it and even give you $1. It made our trip to NOLA!
Tastebud Tours was an absolute highlight of our trip! Kimberly was a fantastic guide, showing us so many sides of the French Quarter—its beautiful buildings, its history, and most of all its incredible food story. We really enjoyed comparing New Orleans flavors to the food culture we grew up with. Such a fun and memorable experience!
Amazing tour. The tour guide Tish was great and super informative about the area and the history of New Orleans! Truly felt like I learned something new and got to try some amazing new food. Would recommend this tour to anybody visiting New Orleans for the first time.
