Truly a wonderful experience!! - Brandon is FANTASTIC!! He gave us so much information, but not at all in an overwhelming way. He has humor and heart. I loved learning and absorbing all he had to say. We were able to see so much on this tour, and the air conditioned bus is so appreciated. Thank you!!

The tour was just the right amount of educational and informative with a heavy dose of humor thrown in for good measure. We really enjoyed this tour and so will you! A++++++

Fascinating, Fun, and a tad Spooky - Sooooo glad I did this! The tour exceeded my expectation. Our tour guide was a bit of wise-ass and cracked epic dad-jokes the entire time. He had the entire tour bus in stitches. We took a spin through French Quarter, Frenchman Street for some architectural and city history. We stopped for a gander at the St. Louis Cemetery No. 1. It was fascinating. Off for a quick bathroom stop at the NO Museum and Parks. Then, off again to Lake Pontchartrain for quick photo op. After that, a spin through the Garden District which was beautiful. You drive past the old St. Louis Cemetery (which is sooooo spooky) but it's closed to the public due to its dilapidated state so you only get to see it through the locked gates. Just as well cuz it gave me the creeps!

Fabulous tour! - We really enjoyed our time with our driver, Justin. It was a very rainy Friday, but Justin came right on time to pick us up at our hotel. We made one other stop to pick up another couple and we were on our way. What is unique about this tour is that it does not focus on the tourist attractions most people come to NOLA to see - but rather, the other neighborhoods not so frequently visited such as Treme, Lakeside, Lakeshore and the Garden District. Justin was a terrific guide - he was very funny - and he took us around to different sites to point things out that one could miss if they were not paying attention. Although it was pouring -- we had a great time and we learned a lot about the other beautiful neighborhoods that make up NOLA. Justin was a great guide and safe driver. We look forward to our next visit to NOLA!
