Overview

You and your guests are going to love the opportunity to sit back and relax while your carriage driver unfolds 300 years of fun-filled history on your mule-drawn carriage ride. We cover the storied history of New Orleans, discussing everything from our resilient culture to the aging architecture. While our carriage tours cover a ton of history, they aren't boring history lectures. Aside from history, we'll chat about things like food, cocktails, nightclubs, jazz, museums, must-sees, and things to do!

Best way to see the area.

Mike and Professor Longhair did an excellent job navigating the area and giving us a fun overview of the history. Would recommend for any age.

We had a great time on this excursion. The carriages were easy to find. Our tour guide was excellent. The information that he shared was very entertaining. I could listen to his voice all day.
