I knew I was in great hands with Cassandra right from the start. Before we set out, she oriented us with a map of the city and a little history of how New Orleans evolved geographically. Then the real fun began! Once we got out in the city, Cassandra gave us great context for everything we saw. Whether it was a fascinating story about the people who built the place, an explanation of how and why the architecture changes from area to area , or pointing out eccentric details that we might have otherwise missed - she made sure that the tour was full of rich and compelling information. She is also a very kind, patient and generous person with whom to spend 5 hours. You will be well taken care of and entertained!

Cassandra is an enthusiastic and deeply knowledgeable tour guide. Our group thoroughly enjoyed seeing and learning about New Orleans. Taking her tour is the only way to experience NOLA in an organized and fun way!

Cassandra was great. Our group of three each had different preferences and interests and Cassandra was responsive, flexible and knowledgeable. We all have been to New Orleans many times and saw and learned so much during the three hours we spent on the tour.
