The tour gave a good overview of history, building styles, life in the French Quarter. We did it on our first day in New Orleans. The tour guide was great, she took photos of us as memories amd even stopped a parade for photo opportunities, that was a once in a lifetime thing.

We met Jay the volunteer guide on the museum courtyard and had a great chat before the tour, the tour although we didn’t notice it at the time covered a good part of the French quarter, and from knowing very little at the start we came away with a lot of knowledge tips and memories. Jay was relaxed walked us on the shade as much as possible which was a good thing and talked rather than ‘preached’ a tour. Extremely well worth it and very beneficial
