My family and I visited NOLA for a day and wanted something to experience the French Quarter with small children. After looking through so many tours, we chose the carriage ride. We rode with Marty and Blaze and our choice was solidified the moment we checked in. Marty is full of history and passionate about his city. We learned so much and saw even more sites than we expected. The kids enjoyed seeing all of the Halloween decor and Marty pointed out a real pirate house for my son. Overall a great experience and worth every penny!

We had the pleasure of taking this ride w Marty and Blaze. Marty was amazing and so knowledgeable. We learned so many interesting and fasinating stories. We saw so many beautiful houses as well. Marty answered our questions and had us laughing and sming the entire ride.

Johnathan was our driver and Coke a cola was our mule. Johnathan was the very best guide. Informative and he had a great personality. The tour was a must to take in. Short amount of time and you had a sense of the history of the French Quarter.
