5.00The tour guide was very professional and knowledgeable. I learned a lot, and he provided great information about New Orleans, Hurricane Katrina, and the city’s overall history. He explained everything in an engaging and easy-to-understand way, which made the experience both informative and enjoyable. I loved and truly appreciated the experience, and I would highly recommend this tour to anyone wanting a deeper understanding of the city.

5.00Bob, our driver and Tour Guide, was very knowledgeable and a very good driver through heavy traffic at times. Stops included time to enjoy a portion of a huge Sculpture Garden and a huge exclusive Cemetery. Learned a great deal about Katrina and its effects on home building, canals, levees, and pumping stations after two decades. A very interesting three hour excursion.
Bob was Great!
