Best way to travel to sights close to NOLA

Published on Jan, 2025

This was the best way to get to the Whitney for our docent led tour. Kin was so knowledgeable and shared interesting history and information about New Orleans, while riding in complete comfort. Kinā€™s expertise and kindness greatly enhanced our experience. We learned so much! Highly recommend.

Kindrell was an excellent tour guide! He is kind, reliable, and extremely knowledgeable about New Orleans. He picked us up from our hotel, and provided wonderful information as we drove to the Whitney Plantation. He also provided us with a list of his favorite restaurants in town. Highly recommended!

The best tour guide

Published on Jan, 2025

Kindrell picked us up at our Air b&b for our tour. He was so kind and concerned because my son didnā€™t feel good, so he didnā€™t make the tour. On the way to the plantations, he would point out landmarks and tell us everything. He answered all of questions. He was very informative. Once we arrived at the plantation, he hooked us up with a wonderful tour guide Sarah. The tour is told from the enslaved peoples point of view. Everyone should visit The Whitney Plantation. It is our history, itā€™s what really happened. Kindrell was waiting for us, and dropped us off at the Air b&b. He made our day. He also just text me to see if our family was okay after the attack in NOLA. A very considerate gesture. I highly recommend Kindrallā€™s tour. It was well worth it.

great

Published on Dec, 2024

The tour guide was very hospitable and informative. He was very knowledgeable of the history of New Orleans. He also pointed in the right direction for great food.

Kin was AMAZING!

Published on Dec, 2024

Kin picked us up from our air bnb and narrated a tour the entire way to Whitney. He knew the answer to every question- whether it was about NOLA history, current architecture, or anything in between. He was punctual and full of great recommendations. He made me laugh the entire time and kept everything very interesting. The van was clean and air conditioned.
