Traveler reviews
Worth every penny!
This was a very informative tour of New Orleans. Bob packed the tour with interesting info about the city, and the effect of Hurrican me Katrina. He pointed out good restaurants to visit and helped me check 2 other boxes - eating beignets at Cafe du Monde (truly the best in the city!) and seeing the oak tree lined famed Charleston Avenue homes. The tour was well worth the price!
Awesome tour!
Our tour guide was Joseph! He was very pleasant and knowledgeable about the area! Very interesting tour! Highly recommend it! Worth the money! The tour had 3 stops where you could get off the bus and look around! Great tour!

Worth every Penny
Wow! Libby was amazing. She told the history of New Orleans with passion and made it so interesting. Great tour and great job. 5 stars isn’t enough
It was a should of saved my money
Bob, our tour guide made everyone yawn. I would not spend a dime with with company again. The whole experience was not what was expected. The van made it hard to see anything out the windows when Bob did stop. Kind of pricey for just driving around. Yawns all around.
