Tim was an excellent guide. Extremely knowledgeable. Gave even more details when questioned on obscure things, even. My 12 year old had a hard time with being patient, but thats also typical of her attention span. I think if i had anything that i wanted more out of the tour, it would be to maybe cover more physical area in the French Quarter. But theres so much history in the small area we walked, so....? Tim also did a great job with all of the distractions. Wow, alot of them. Music, bands, people, traffic. We still heard everything he said. Great tour.

Thank you so much for leaving this fantastic five star recommendation of your French Quarter tour, and also for some helpful feedback about wanting to cover more area in this historic neighborhood. You’re right – there is so much to talk about in every single block of this vibrant, colorful, musical, sometimes chaotic place! Tim does a great job of focusing in on the interests of his guests and providing a tour that everyone finds engaging. I am so happy that you chose us to show you around, and I hope you come back and walk with us another time. Libby
