Honestly, if you want a true feel of NOLA, go with Michaela. She’s incredibly knowledgeable and fun. We booked a private tour with her. It was my husband, son and myself. Private tour is the way to go!! She picked us up in a beautiful new Expedition XL, which fit us perfectly. My husband is 6’4 and needs the extra room. We did a little cruising of the city before we went on a swamp boat tour (which was a HUGE highlight for my 15 year old son). We saw several alligators as well despite it being so hot out on the bayou. We went to city park and had beignets from would famous Cafe Du Monde. We sat and drank some coffee, talked and then walked around the park. We continued to other districts of the city, places only a local would know. We even stopped through a cemetery and heard about the history of how and why cemeteries are above ground. Heard so much history! She had my son engaged, and let’s face it, at this age, that’s hard to do! Michaela is hilarious, well versed in the NOLA culture and just fun to be around! I can’t say enough good things about our tour and Michaela. Thank you again Michaela!
