What To Expect
1
French Quarter
Meet your guide in the heart of the French Quarter to embark on your three-hour walking tour of world-class restaurants and foodie venues. Wander the lively streets of the French Quarter and get an insider's look at the kitchens often seen on food shows and featured in cookbooks. Let your guide know the restaurants you're interested in checking out or perhaps ask your guide to recommend a personal favorite. Indulge in food tastings during your tour. You may have a classic gumbo as a seafood treasure, boudin beignets and other authentic nibbles. Popular New Orleans' cocktails are available for purchase like the distinctive Pimms Cup with a ' twist. Pimms originated in England, but the Pimms Cup cocktail was dreamed up in New Orleans. Your tastings are all included in the price of your tour and many feel these tastings add up to a meal's worth of food. There's a moderate amount of walking involved as you move from one exceptional restaurant to the next, so it's easy to work off the calories!

Weā€™ve taken food tours in other cities before. Itā€™s a good combination of guided tour and lunch so we chose this tour for our stay in NOLA. Our guide met us promptly and was very engaging with a great local knowledge and plenty of foodie tips too. Thereā€™s a fair bit of walking involved including the market and riverside. Food wise - it was a bit slow. At least two locations didnā€™t seem ready for our group and we waited around quite a while. Most NOLA favourites were on the list - pralines, poā€™ boys etc but disappointingly no beignets ! You walk past Cafe du Monde but thatā€™s it. Overall, we enjoyed the tour but I felt the content didnā€™t justify the three hour duration and (for the future) it really should include beignets.
