Leanne was great with the history and heritage of the city. Her passion for New Orleans was evident from the beginning. I would love to give 5 stars but cannot because I feel like the tour that was advertised was not the one that we received. The eating part was 100%..... the tour destinations that are listed with viator are NOT what we did. We did not go to St Roch cemetery or market. We had a first time visitor that really wanted to visit both of these and this is the reason that we picked this tour. We have friends that live near St Roch and we know that it is open.

We had a wonderful time with Leanne. She is fun and energetic and offered several times to help with recommendations since it was our first time visiting. All the food was awesome and she gave us a great introduction to the neighborhoods. Praline cream filled beignets. Yum. It looks like we will be coming back next year to spend more time in the areas she took us to. I would highly recommend Leanne and will look at her other tours for next time. Ivy Edmonds-Hess
