Garden District Tour
Had a great tour with Bob last Friday afternoon. It was very informative, and his love of his job and of the area and its architecture was quite evident. Bob had a lot of great personal anecdotes, and had answers to all our questions. Thank you, Bob!
Phenomenal
Bob was very informative and personal on the tour. The tour itself felt more like a friend showing you his home and less like an actual tour.
Tour with Bob
Bob did an awesome job! Gave us a good tour and new a lot about the history of New Orleans.
Rain or Shine!
Very memorable tour with Bob. He shared lots of interesting info and even though it rained like crazy, he stuck with us. Certainly will remember this part of our family trip! This walking tour starts in the Garden District which is about a 2.5 mile walk from the Quarter.
Amazing Tour!
Bob was a wonderful tour guide, making it fun and very informative about so many interesting details of the garden district. I really appreciated his attention to detail and genuine love and appreciation of the area. When I’m in town again, I will definitely take another tour with Bob!
