Hop on Hop Off Bus

Steve was awesome. He kept us laughing while also pointing out locations that say New Orleans. The garden district tour was also nice. This is a must do, especially if Steve is doing the tour.

Best way to see the city!

Each guide had different fun facts about the city. Upper deck was the best for viewing and not having to do a bunch of walking... However I would do the French quarter and garden district walking tours! Worth the money for sure.

Great Experience!

The Hop-On Hop-Off is the way to tour the city. They're very organized, easy to find the stop number and the staff is friendly and professional. We had Ellroy as a driver, he was excellent - I hope he's driving your bus. It was a great way to see the lay out of the city. Get the 3-day pass because it includes a walking tour in the Gardens District and a walking tour of Jackson Square.

Our friends group trip

The hop on hop off trolley is a wonderful way to see New Orleans, learn the history and get around easy. We did the garden walk tour and our guide Sam was very fun and informative. I would highly recommend doing this at least 1 day and 2 days would be better! Enjoy
