I highly recommended everyone take this walking tour of the New Orleans French Quarter. My volunteer tour guide Simone Duhon was awesome! Simone’s love of the history of New Orleans was quite evident, as she led me on an very informative and interesting tour throughout the French Quarter. Not only did Simone make the city’s history come alive, she enthusiastically answered all of my questions. As a life long resident of New Orleans, I was realized how little I knew about my own city! I urge that both visitors and local residents book this tour. Thank you Simone for an amazing and memorable tour of the New Orleans French Quarter!

Time well spent. This was a good tour of the French Quarter. It lasted about 2 hours and included the area around Jackson Square. Since there were about 15 people, they broke us up into 2 smaller groups.
