Bob was amazing and really knowledgable. The tour was very informative and engaging. It was a hot day but he was mindful to keep us in the shade and his sense of humor kept it light yet very enlightening. Would recommend it to everyone!

Jet (perhaps Chet) was knowledgeable and entertaining. He made clear when he was spinning a tale versus sharing genuine history. It was evident that he loves the town… warts and all.

An inside and in-depth look into the history of the Garden District. Very interesting and a lot of fun!! Would definitely recommend to anyone who’s in the area!

Bob was a great tour guide. This tour is a must do if you are in the New Orleans Garden District. He pointed out many of the amazing homes in this neighborhood (including the homes of John Goodman and Sandra Bullock). As history buffs, my wife and I really enjoyed the tour. He explained the history of many different homes. I would highly recommend this tour! Bob is very knowledgeable, enthusiastic, and you learn far more about the area than you would roaming around by yourself.

A small group walk through the garden district. Our guide was a local historian. We learned a lot about the history, architecture and famous folks who populate the area. The tour was just over two hours. Bring good shoes the beautiful oaks do make for adventurous walking. Throw in a beautiful Mew Orleans cemetary and you have a wonderful tour.

Everything you would want to know and see re Annie Rice area plus ghostly stories.Stacy really knows the subject and makes it jump off the page. Lots of walking, 2 hours, but worth it and my wife and I are mid eighties
