Our guide was very personable and knowledgeable fun way to get to know the city before exploring. We were able to see a very good balance of historical sites.

When we saw beyonces house I was like “what does this have to do with Nola history” 🤦🏾‍♂️ focus on more of the history and less of the feminist crap .. lol but was very nice 🤷🏾‍♂️

Cynthia met us at the arraigned place and time and was immediately outgoing and friendly. Corey had the bus so cool it made the warm morning tour very comfortable. I immediately appreciated Cynthia’s way of telling history ( not legends) as she was very informative. We appreciated this tour and the information the team shared, giving us an idea of where to start to get to know New Orleans better.

We were looking for a short, fun and informative tour and that is what we found. Our tour guide was amazing shared great stories of the city!

Matthew_W

Guide talked way too loud and fast. You could tell he had said the same thing over and over like rehearsed. Looked like he just crawled out of bed. Reminded me of “booger” he should not be a guide.

The tour was amazing. Our tour guide, DJ, new A LOT about New Orleans!! The bus was air conditioned. I would definitely recommend this tour to anyone coming to New Orleans to visit. We made several stops along the way. If you want to know the best places to eat or drink at, all you got to do is ask or text DJ.

I thought that our tour guide was great! Unfortunately I don’t remember catching his name ☹️. Definitely learned a lot tho he was very knowledgeable and funny. My favorite part was stopping at café du monde in the park. My only issue was I wish he was using a mic while on the bus. It was very hard to hear him most of the time but everything else was great!

This was our first trip to New Orleans and chose this tour to learn history and see more of the city. Our guide- darn I cannot remember his name- he was a MS history teacher and was raised in the area. Amazing! And the stop at the cafe- perfect! The tour of the cemetery was also exceptional- wow! A must do tour. And folks, you sign up for a tour, be on time, in fact - be a few minutes early. 😉

Excellent tour! Would book again! Carolyn was incredibly interesting, knowledgeable and entertaining - knew so much about all aspects of the city. Brand new beautiful tour bus! A lot of territory covered in a short amount of time. Thank you!
