5.00It was an absolutely amazing tour. The history of the homes in the Garden District was shared in such a detailed, vivid, and engaging way that it truly brought the area to life. New Orleans has an incredible amount of history, and when it’s told by the right person—aka Kelsey, someone who is knowledgeable, passionate, and captivating—you find yourself completely intrigued, hanging on every word, and genuinely eager to learn more.
Fabulous historical tour!
