Our driver was entertaining and very knowledgeable. We saw a few historical sites before driving past the massive cottages built primarily during the 1800’s by the very wealthy. Dominique knew dates, names and other information on dozens of them. We went to Fort Adam’s which was the only stop we made. I enjoyed the historic part but driving past all the cottages was the main part of the tour. It is not a hop on hop off tour. Dominique provided useful suggestions on doing the Cliff walk and other things.

It was a great tour with an experienced guide but sitting at the back of the bus we could not hear anything but mumble in the drivers explanations. On the way back we sat in the front and could hear fine. I suggest people don’t sit in the back of the bus or bus company fix your speakers. Thanks for sharing this beautiful city with us
