This tour was historically and factually accurate, unlike so many other tours in New Orleans. Our guide Kathy, was knowledgeable and humorous. It's a bargain to begin with, but the ticket also includes admission to a couple of French Quarter museums. Not to be missed!

Kate seemed to be new, inexperienced and nervous. She did have lots of information but had a hard time putting it all together in a coherent way. She jumped all over the place chronologically and repeatedly skipped back and forth across time periods. Again she was knowledgeable, but seemed to get very flustered when we asked a question, had a hard time answering it and again skipped all over the place. It was very disappointing. Please provide Kate more practice before sending her out with paying customers

tour guide was very knowledgeable about New Orleans and US history of the region. She explained the development of Jackson Square and Andrew Jackson's influence in the area. We toured some of the streets that exhibited buildings from 200 years.
