Jonathan and Bo Jo provided an awesome tour For us as as part of our anniversary celebration to New Orleans. I appreciated that Jonathan offered two different routes / tours with consideration of the fact that I walk with a cane and “just riding” was a preference. Learned a lot of new history facts about the French Quarter and Marigny areas. Thanks again ..

We were walking by looking to take a carriage ride and Stephanie greeted us and explain where we would be going and what he would be learning about.. so we jumped on. A family of 6 . Stephanie was awesome. Was very insightful. We really enjoyed our tour. Plus she had a great relationship with her horse stormy . Which we loved and enjoyed. Stephanie allowed us to say bye and thank you to stormy for our ride. Stephanie and stormy were the highlight of our day.
