    I expected to see street performers and more jazz Instead we had a two hour jazz history walk with just 2 performances inside clubs at end First one was accommodating with good jazz but very little seating The second one was not accommodating - like we were in the way if we stood and good only sit if we eat. Left there early Guide was knowledgeable. Definaty not what I thought we paid for

    Cage was very informative and enthusiastic. There were for of us in the group and we all thought the tour was perfect. Great on the first day in NO to get familiar with the area. We visited two jazz bars. She followed up with a complete list of what we had seen and additional recommendations for our stay. We highly recommend Cayge and this tour.

    There were only four of us that made up the group, including the tour guide. The information and the sites to see along the way were fascinating. I would not have had the insights had I tried to do the tour on my own. Thank goodness for those who have grown up in the city and have vast knowledge of the past, present and future. It was a fun and factual tour. Didn't get to follow behind the jazz musicians that you see depicted in movies and on television.

    Valerie was very enjoyable,informative,etc....we did a lot of walking, visiting clubs, neighborhoods, restaurants and stores I never knew existed or heard any publicity about, and I was online 3 weeks before my trip, doing research on the French Quarter. Our small group of 3 had an awesome time!
