We stumbled upon Friends of the Cabildo from a local's recommendation. They stated that there are lots of tours in New Orleans, but the only one to consider was Friends of the Cabildo. Jeanne Wilson took us on our tour and was absolutely phenomenal. She was dripping with knowledge and fun facts about the history of the city, pharmaceuticals, cocktails, architecture, food and much much more. My buddies and I liked it so much, we requested to go on a cemetery tour with her later that night! It was phenomenal, highly recommend it!

This is our first time in New Orleans, so we thought it would beneficial to do a tour to find out some of the local history. Our guide Kelly did a super job doing so with our small group. She was very knowledgeable and more than happy to answer all of questions. Time well spent!

Our tour guide Tom was very knowledgeable and gave me and my mum a fantastic tour. We walked all over the French quarter and he made us aware of a lot of little things. Writers that used New Orleans for inspiration, voodoo, and all the history of new orleans. Since we are from Germany it's was extremely interesting to get to know that a lot of Germans came very early to new Orleans. Overall the tour was fantastic and exceeded all expectations. Thank you Tom!
