I'm Paul Angelica, a born & raised native of NOLA. Since 2018, I have given thousands of visitors from around the world & have earned over 450 5★ Reviews on my NOLA BIG 4 (French Quarter • Garden District • Metairie Cemetery • City Park) PRIVATE CITY TOUR. I have taken courses on NOLA & read most of the books on her 300 year old history. I'm a Licensed New Orleans Tour Guide & have a B.S. in Marketing from The University of New Orleans. One of the first things I recommend you do in New Orleans is TAKE A TOUR! This will acclimate you & help you understand New Orleans.  I designed my NOLA BIG 4 tour to do 3 things for my guests: First, my tour is Fact-Based & comprehensive, designed to educate you about the people, culture and history of this unique city I call home, NEW ORLEANS.  This is NOT a ghost tour.  The day I am able to contact a ghost & introduce them to you will be the day I start giving ghost tours. Second, we will visit the (French Quarter, Garden District, Metairie Cemetery & City Park) 4 of the 74 official neighborhoods in New Orleans. The French Quarter is considered the heart & soul of the city but, I will take you out of the French Quarter & show you 3 other areas (Garden District, Metairie Cemetery & City Park) of the city that most people don’t even know exist. Finally, within a couple of hours with me, you will be armed with valuable information to effectively plan & maximize your stay in this over 300 year old crown jewel, NEW ORLEANS! Come along with me to see & learn about the Real Big Easy. THIS IS A PRIVATE DRIVING (4 PASSENGER TOYOTA RAV4) TOUR, ONLY YOUR GROUP WILL ATTEND. I will pick you up at your desired location. If a day/time slot is not available & for groups larger than 4, contact me, & I will try to accommodate you. CHECK OUT MY VIATOR/TRIPADVISOR REVIEWS!
