I don’t do reviews often but these guys are top notch. We did a walking tour of the French Quarter and shopped around to find the best asking a number of people for recommendations and they came up repeatedly. Our tour guide Roger was super informative with interesting history, fun facts and presented it all in the most entertaining way — and they were very reasonably priced. Highly recommend. PS - includes admission to 1850 House which was interesting.

Our tour was on February 26, and our guide was Jeanne Wilson. We thought the tour was very informative. Jeanne really knows a lot about the French Quarter and New Orleans history, and shared her knowledge with us. The tour started a little slowly, but became more interesting as we actually walked through the French Quarter. Our suggestion is to start moving sooner and keep moving, so we can cover more ground.

Very informative walking tour of the French Quarter with Barbara. Highly recommend it!! And because we were there during Mardi Gras season, we got Mardi Gras beads/necklaces for correctly answering NOLA trivia questions.
