Exceptional time. Kristi was outstanding. Food was great and interesting facts about NO made it well worthwhile. I will recommend to anyone that I know that is going to New Orleans that they book and take this tour. I would do it again.

We really enjoyed our small group tour with Intrepid. Our tour guide Camella (sp) took us to interesting small bars and shops where the local Venetians meet after work & on weekends. She was very informative and friendly. The variety of food and wine was fantastic. We highly recommend this tour as a first up in Venice.
