Mikko was so much fun! He gave a great mix of stories, insider tips and fun conversation for our tour. I love Uniquenola tours! They’re worth every penny!

We had a very thorough tour of the Garden District, seeing all of the beautiful historic mansions, hearing of the histories, celebrity info, etc. Our guide was very knowledgeable and had all kinds of cool stories to tell. I even got to "go to France" without a passport by sticking my hand through the fence at the French Consulate. It was a VERY thorough 2 hour tour!

Our tour guide , Niko, was great , He was very friendly and approachable and he had a deep knowledge of The Garden District and New Orleans in general, He seemed to have a personal story to go with many of the fabulous houses , many of which are deceptively large. I found the variety of architectural styles and stories behind them fascinating
