We took a tour of the Garden District and it was great. Our guide was very enthusiastic and entertaining. She told about the architecture and history of the houses and also included information on the fauna of the area. The houses are beautiful and a lot of work goes into maintaining these historic homes. I can very much recommend a tour with Tours by Steven.

Our tour was great; Angie was super engaging and kept me interested for the entire two hours. She is a wealth of knowledge about New Orleans and shared great stories and insights about the Garden District and cemetery. I highly recommend this experience.

Harris is an amazing guide. Very knowledgeable, personable and a great communicator. The tour flew by and he remained afterward for any additional questions.
