Our guide, Lauren, did a fantastic job guiding us through the French Quarter. Not only did we get great food, we learned about the history and culture of this unique city. She also shared a list of recommendations outside the Quarter to make sure we enjoyed our trip to the fullest!
A lovely and tasty way to learn about NOLA!
This tour was fun, educational and delicious! Our tour guide Susan was very passionate about New Orleans food and music and culture, The stops on the tour were a representation of the must try foods and all were Fabulous. Susan also had plenty of suggestions on what do explore during your visit, some of which we tried and enjoyed! A lovely and tasty way to learn about NOLA!
Taste and see New Orleans
What a great way to both learn about and taste New Orleans. Our guide Jack, was the best. Knowledgeable, personable and organized. The New Orleans cooking institute made gumbo and jambalaya look easy to make and taste was fantastic. We hit all of our food groups
Excellent tour with Susan
We really enjoyed our tour with Susan. She told us a lot about the food we would be eatting and the nationalities that blended together to create it. Highly recommended.
Fantastic New Orleans food tour.
This was the first food tour we’ve ever taken and our guide, Susan, made it a wonderful experience. She was extremely knowledgeable about the places we ate in and New Orleans history.
