I soent 3 days in NOLA in november 2013. I just happened to walk by the park in the French Quarter and saw their office, which was also referenced in Lonely Planet and decided to check it out. I cans ay it was a great thing to do, the guide and the people in their store/office were extremely helpful. The explanations and tour were great, not too detailed as to be dry history, not too superficial as to be not informative. We did a great walking tour full of anecdotes, questions and good humour. I would totally recommend it if you have curiosity to know more about the past of the city.

Great walking tour of the French Quarter. Our guide, Lynn, gave us lots of history of New Orleans and entertaining stories. Definitely worth the price and the time.
