What To Expect

Garden District

We meet in the Garden District, where your guide will begin by giving you a brief history of the city, leading up to the birth of this iconic neighborhood. We then head towards Lafayette Cemetery, one of New Orleans’ above ground “cities of the dead” where we will discuss some of our unique burial traditions from outside the gates. We continue walking through the oak-lined streets, taking in the grandeur of the many historic mansions and sharing the stories of the people who built these stately homes, while also discussing the political landscape that gave birth to the area. Named for its lush gardens, we'll point out some of the vast array of flora we pass, and look for what is in bloom while we explore the neighborhood.

Derek was EXCELLENT! We were a group of four interested especially in art and culture. We found his depth of knowledge, manner, sense of humor impressive and absolutely charming. We also did the French Quarter private walking tour, and that was equally outstanding. Thank you for the great time!

Tim was an excellent tour guide. He was so in tune with what was going on in the district as well as the historical past and present of what we were looking at. He was one of the best tour guides I have ever had anywhere. I would highly recommend booking him for a wonderful tour of anywhere in the New Orleans area. It is well worth the time and money to have a true historian take you on a walk through the past of such a wonderful, cultural city. Debra Ankiel
