Our group of 12 ranging in age from 13 to 55 had an awesome time on this tour led by our guide Eric. The adults all loved the historical stories and the young adults (mostly in college) loved the sites and the journey. The city bikes were in great condition and fine for the city ride we were doing. Most of the riding was in bike lanes and on scarcely traveled streets. We saw many different areas of NOLA: French Quarter, the river, Rosalita ally, cemeteries, etc

Our tour guide was so informative and a really good story teller. We enjoyed every part of the tour and learned a lot about the history of New Orleans.

Even though it was chilly and misty, we thoroughly enjoyed this nearly 3 hour trip through New Orleans. Our guide captivated us with the stories of each neighborhood and gave us a thorough history lesson of the city. We learned about New Orleans history from its founding through its prominent role in the civil rights era during our many stops. Highly recommend Flambeaux tours.
