Erin was great in the light of a massive rain storm! She is so knowledgeable and enthusiastic about her city and that made the lousy weather tolerable. Hope you have a nice day to take this tour of a very historic part of New Orleans.

Phil was our tour guide. He was magnificent. I loved the way he truly walked us through the history of Treme using music that was hung around his neck. It was quite an informative and interesting tour. Unfortunately, we could not finish the tour since someone in our party felt ill. This was quite a shame since it was so good. When we go back, this is a tour we will definitely repeat.

We're so sorry you weren't able to complete our Treme tour with Phil. Hopefully we'll have the opportunity again next time you're here to visit.
