This was a great tour in an air conditioned mini bus! Well worth the time and cost. Gary K. possesses a wealth of information and he willingly shared it. The stops for photo ops was appreciated. He also offered great food and activity recommendations. He definitely kept the group entertained.

Great overview of the city in an air conditioned mini bus plus some time to walk around for a nice break. Joseph, the driver/tour director was wonderful…lots of facts and fun myths. Highly recommend to begin your trip..get a great overview of the city and things you might was to go back and see more in depth.

The tour operator was exceptional. He was the tour guide for the day. Very informative and professional. Quite knowledgeable of events and things to do in the area. I have been on tours before that I have wanted to fall asleep, however this tour operator kept it interesting and we enjoyed every moment.

This tour is an absolute must and hopefully you'll have Joseph as your guide! He's knowledgeable, informative, entertaining, genuine, and a safe driver to boot! You'll come away with a "behind the scenes look" of a truly great City!

My son and I wanted to hear the history of the different areas of New Orleans. Our tour guide was Gary. Gary was very knowledgeable about the environmental damages that hurricane Katrina left in New Orleans. He gave us some very interesting facts about the areas we saw. We stopped at a cemetery as well. This experience would have been better if we were able to take photos at popular spots in some of the towns we saw. Gary tried really hard to engage everyone in conversation during our tour. Letting things flow naturally is usually more comfortable for most people. Overall, this was a good tour.
