More information when booking online. Had to call customer service to book and even after booking gave me little details about where to park my vehicle. Again I had to call customer service.
Awesome tour!

The 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.

Bob, 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!

Now, we have the understanding of New Orleans cemeteries. This tour is comfortable in shuttle while our tour guide driver narrates the main points of interests and the effects of hurricane Katrina on New Orleans, LA. We stopped by Café du Monde for a treat to conclude the tour.
Great way to see the city!
