Tour was excellent. James was our guide and he was both very knowledgeable and very funny. It was a great experience. I definitely recommend this tour!

While the the title is a bit misleading (Garden Walk) it was nonetheless fascinating. The title would lead you to believe it is more like botanical gardens. The walk provided an historical overview of the magnificent homes, cemeteries and occupants that may include celebrities who own some of these homes. There is some information of the foliage and trees endemic to NOLA. Our tour guide, James was knowledgeable, jovial and an excellent tour guide.
