Customer Reviews
Yvette was the most amazing knowledgeable and entertaining tour guide! This was probably the best thing we decided to do on this trip. Another great decision on this adventure.. Book the "Adults Only" tour if you can. Perfection.
Wolfie is great! He's very knowledgeable about the history of New Orleans, tells it in a very engaging way, and has an excellent sense of humor that made the tour fun in addition to interesting. Because we couldn't decide on one, and both were reasonably priced, we also took another walking tour with another company the same day. We were worried two tours would be redundant, but surprisingly they weren't at all. Each took us through different parts of the French Quarter, covered different things, and the guides were very different but both great, so it worked out perfectly. We highly recommend taking multiple tours to get the most out of a visit to NOLA.
Michael our tour guide was knowledgeable about his craft and art. He kept us all well informed about the history of the French Quarters. I thoroughly enjoyed my first trip to NOLA and the French Quarters. Thank you Michael.
