As part of a pilgrimage to NOLO to take my father in law to the WWII museum, we booked a tour with Michaela and it was nothing short of spectacular. She was great with my 77 year old father and law, as well as my two teen aged sons. Her knowledge of the area is amazing- and her personality and storytelling really adds to the experience. Its like hanging out with an extremely knowledgeable old friend. I cannot recommend her enough and cannot imagine a better way to experience the city. As an added bonus, Michaela also essentially planned the entire trip for me when I called her a few weeks in advance…she recommended hotel rooms and even made dinner reservations. She is the best!!

Micky's tour was one of the highlights of our trip to New Orleans. Her knowledge, energy, enthusiasm, and passion for her city made the tour so memorable. I loved how we were able to customize the tour based on our interests. My sisters have been on tours all around the world and said that Mickey was the best tour guide that they've ever had. I would highly recommend Micky's tour of New Orleans!
