Enjoyable walking tour of the French Quarter. Knowledgable guide with lots of interesting stories. Added bonus, included in the $15.00cost of the tour was a self guided tour of the residence located on the upper floors of theJackson Square pick up/drop off point. Definitely value for the money.

We did a two-hour walking tour of the French Quarter (with Sandy) and found it delightful - informative and calm. We learned a lot and as is always true with a good tour, your attention is drawn to tihngs you would otherwise just walk past. Would happily recommend these torus - they're really good value.

My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed our nominal 1.5 hour walking tour around the New Orleans French Quarter. And Linda Deane as our seasoned "insider" guide delivered a wonderful, detailed and diverse view of note worthy events and insights about this intriguing city. There is coverage of the diverse inhabitants of days past, the architectural elements, the political worlds that have come and gone and the impact that time exacts on all things. N.O. is far too complex to understand in a 2 hour tour, but as a friend of the Cabildo, Linda Deane, brings to life fascinating tidbits of this unique now American city. Add to this a tour of the Cabildo Museum as well. While the life of this city is fascinating, my wife and I prefer to stay in the present time. N.O. may have been a heck of a "frontier" city but a bit too wild for us!
