Wonderful tour about the history of New Orleans culture and architecture. Donna was a very informative guide and our group was small so it was able to move quickly. I recommend the tour for anyone who wants an accurate history of how New Orleans came to be.

A fabulous tour! Our wonderful volunteer tour guide, Hopper, was very knowledgeable and funny! We did a Sunday morning time, and there were only three of us...felt like a private tour! I use a wheelchair, and Hopper was good about choosing a route that was accessible. He answered lots of our questions, and it felt much more comfortable and laid-back than some of the other tours I've been on where you you can be hurried along because of a time crunch. Overall, I highly recommend this tour, and love that it supports the historical preservation efforts of NoLa. Well worth it!
