Informative, Entertaining New Orleans Adventure - City Park, the Cemetery and our narrator, D.J. were the best parts. City Park was amazing and we are thrilled we got to see it. We had no idea what was there and were amazed by the outdoor sculptures, the trees (Spanish moss and Live Oak), the Cafe Du Monde (a nice stop at the park for a bathroom break and a snack) and the beauty and options for entertainment at the park. The Cemetery was a chance to get off the bus and be informed about the history of cemeteries in New Orleans, see the above ground burial places and learn about who was buried there. D.J. was engaging and knowledgeable and we could understand what he was saying. Loved this tour and our tour guide!

Fantastic experience! - Geoff was an amazing tour guide, and Carl our driver was fantastic as well. I felt connected to the city and in particular the deceased whom we visited. Mass graves of decedents of Malaria and Yellow Fever epidemics were particularly moving, for me. Thank you Geoff for your unique and engaging approach. The Oddfellows are lucky to have you as an ambassador.
