A must do cemetery tour

Our guide and driver was Roy. He is a great driver. A fantastic guide. Although we had been booked on a 5pm tour which was cancelled, I didn’t think I would hold up for a tour that started at 8 and actually 830 by the time all was settled. However, Roy made it interesting and was accommodating to all the people on the bus but particularly my friend, who has mobility issues He is skilled at handling a crowd of people from diverse backgrounds and made the trip educational and enjoyable. The voodoo tavern pickup doesn’t have a great selection of food so eat before you go. And bring earplugs if you’re sensitive to loud music.
