Our walking tour guide, Arlene, did an excellent job informing my wife and me about the French Quarter.

We took a tour with Hopper. It was a fantastic to see New Orleans and the French Quarter by walking around. The city and area is so steeped in history. Hopper was great about adding a little bit of everything from the architecture to the history to the food to the people of New Orleans. He was incredibly knowledgeable and happy to answer any questions. I'd recommend taking this tour!! The two hours went by so fast.

Kate was an excellent guide. This was my first trip to NOLA. I learned the difference creole and Cajun, the difference between French, Spanish and American rule and architecture of the area, and the incredible person behind the design and construction of Jackson Square. I was so impressed I bought the biography about her mentioned on the placard entering the museum. Also Kate touched on the influence of the sugar processing industry and literary notables.
