Despite the terrible weather, James was a fantastic tour guide. I did not expect to be the only person on this tour but James made the experience extra special but moving at my pace and providing comedy along the way. Locations include Sandra Bullock and John Good Masions. Sadly the Lafayette Cemetery was closed due to renovations but I still had a great time and James was keen to ensure I enjoyed myself which I did very much. One of the best tours I have ever had! Thank you James! 😁

James is SO funny! We are always prepared to tour in any weather, but those bad-weather days can be challenging. James is good at making any situation fun, because he can find humor in almost anything. We are also sad that the Lafayette Cemetery is closed but actually quite happy that we can still peek in the gate. Come again next time - we will remember to order better weather! Libby
