We were the only ones who signed up for the Sunday eve tour, Randy gave us an excellent “private” tour and we had a great time . I’m glad we decided to take the tour soon after arriving because it helped us gain quicker familiarity with the area. We enjoyed it so much!

Randy Bibb, Raconteur Extraordinaire, spent over two hours regaling us with sordid stories of the French Quarter and Storyville. Spanning from New Orleans early years to present day, Randy spun tales of debauchery, deception, murders and insanity. Three stops along the way had us sampling cocktails made famous in New Orleans (we purchased ourselves) and thus sufficiently (and delightfully) buzzed, we left the tour only wanting more stories, and a few oysters.

We had no idea what to expect and along with another couple we had an amazing behind the scenes look at several key places like Antoine’s, the Hotel Monteleone, and Jean LaFit’s......really good time!
