We had the best time with KJ and Leiux! This is a must do tour! You learn so much of the quarter and surrounding neighborhoods and see more than you would just walking by! The sound of the carriage down the streets - amazing! KJ was very knowledgeable and his humor had us going!

Very Informative. Normally don’t do carriage rides bc I care about the animals that pull us. However the care of the animals/Mule’s was explained and they look healthy, so I’m happy Ginger is in good hands. New Orleans please fix your street’s! Loved the tour!

This was the best carriage tour I’ve ever taken in any city. Our guide, Lucas, was very informative and absolutely hysterical. You weren’t bored or just having facts thrown at you in a monotone voice. He taught us so much about the city and he had all of us laughing the entire time. I’ve been to New Orleans several times and I wish I had done this earlier. I learned a lot and it was very scenic. Another positive was that you could tell that Lucas cared about his mule and they were in a partnership together. It was really endearing and it made me have a lot of confidence in the company. Absolute five star experience. I’d do this again in a heartbeat.
