Lesley was informative,...

Lesley was informative, funny, and flexible on our tour. Would definitely recommend. Content included historical elements and walking path that highlighted the French Quarter.

Very Informative

Published on Jan, 2025

If you want a great history of the area (good, bad, and alcoholic), this is an excellent option. My wife and I enjoyed it.

Amazing French Quarter history tour!

Published on Jan, 2025

We highly recommend the New Orleans French Quarter history tour. Yvonne did an amazing job as our tour guide and really told the stories in a way that was understandable and memorable. It was great to hear the history while walking around seeing the sites where they occurred. This is a must do tour when in the French Quarter of NOLA! Thank you!!!

Totally fun afternoon

Published on Jan, 2025

The history of NOLA and the French Quarter is very interesting. Libby is an excellent story teller and our afternoon was great.

An interesting and fun few hours well spent.

Scott was super informative, engaging and seemed like he really enjoyed his job and interacting with tourists. I’ve been to New Orleans a number of times but learned a few new things about the city.
