3.00Historical information about various buildings in the French quarter in a horse-drawn carriage, that is all to it. On reaching pick-up point, we were told by others that one can book there itself at more competitive rates so did not feel that this was value for money at 65$ per person.
We were told about the history concerning the French Quarter. It was a nice easy ride up and down the streets.
