Well worth our time! Roger, our tour guide, was knowledgeable and engaging. And the 1850 House is important for learning more about important French Quarter history.

Ann S. was best tour guide I’ve ever had! Knowledgeable, enjoyable, passionate, professional. Kept us moving and attentive to our need for shade! Her love for NOLA and respect for history was evident.

Although my husband and I have visited New Orleans many times, we learned so much more about this historic city from our knowledgeable tour guide, Cindy! Her passion for New Orleans made the tour even more interesting and colorful! Among the many things Cindy explained to us was the difference between the cast iron and the wrought iron that is used throughout the French Quarter and she showed us the window behind Cafe Du Monde where you can watch as the beignets are being lifted out of the hot oil. Put on some comfy walking shoes and take this tour!
