Fantastic Tour provided by Mia

Fun tour in French Quarter and beyond to learn more about the history of New Orleans. Carriage is covered best to do an early morning tour before weather gets too hot

Great tour

This was a great way to get an overview of the area. Our guide was fantastic and so was Norma who pulled us around for an hour.

Absolutely worth the ride!

Wow! So much learning on this ride! It was so great to hear all about local history. Our guide was very knowledgable about the area and was so sweet with our mule, Beignet! The ride was on time and the seats were comfortable. Our guide stopped frequently to make sure everyone saw what he was talking about and encouraged questions!
