It was mid week so it was a private tour. Donald was informative and had a lot of suggestions.

The scandalous cocktail hour tour is excellent and so fun! Our tour guide, Leonce, was wonderful. His passionate and engaging way of telling stories pulls you into a time past. Can't go wrong with authentic cocktails and shady tales from long ago. Highly recommend- Leonce made the trip to NOLA extra special!

Great tour! The tour guide was fun and informative, there was plenty of opportunity to taste as many cocktails as we wished and learned some of the history of the cocktail. Went on during our stay in NOLA to try each and every one.
