It was enjoyable and insightful to learn about some of New Orleans' history and see part of the city. The tour is something we enjoy doing in every city with a significant history. And the scenery is a nice break from all of the walking we did. You could spend all day in the French Quarter and still not see all of it.

A great carriage ride through old sections of the French Quarter. Our guide/driver (Maya) was very knowledgeable and personable. She even pointed out a great place for Po Boy sandwiches. We had them, excellent. All in all a great experience.
