    This was worth the time. Mika was knowledgeable, patient and accommodating. We rented a wheelchair so my mom didn't have to walk. We all learned so much.

    He had a great time with Meka. She perfectly balanced the seriousness and complexity of history with easy conversation and good rapport. She definitely had a plan and taught us new things, but also engaged with us and did not seem bothered by the ways we derailed her. This was an excellent tour with loads of walking, but also thoughtful touches like photos and bathroom stops.

    We had a great time on this fascinating walking tour. Our guide Mika was knowledgeable, enthusiastic, engaging and friendly. Mika imparted her extensive knowledge in an entertaining and relaxed manner whilst being totally respectful of the subject matter. We enjoyed the conversation and company of the other 2 participants and highly recommend this tour.

    We have participated in other tours in the NOLA area in the past and enjoyed them all. This one though is a very important tour for any visitor to the Quarter to have a better understanding of the African American culture in the area and the influence that the various members of that culture have had on the city since the first enslaved people were brought to NOLA. We learned a lot about the culture and how it has endured through the centuries. This tour has caused me to dig deeper into the culture and history. Thank you!
