We were visiting New Orleans for my birthday in January and thought that the perfect way to cap off our night would be to hear ghost stories of the French Quarter. Our tour guide met us in front on the vampire store and we were off on a two hour walking excursion hearing about all the history making up New Orleans with 5 stops in front of particular buildings where spooky activity is reported to occur. We had a great time, our guide was extremely knowledgeable and happy to answer any questions. We saw lots of other tours out on the streets and were so happy with our choice of tour company because instead of 30 people we only had 7 in our group which made for a very intimate, personable tour.

There are benefits to smaller groups on all of our tours, primarily that you can see and hear everything and have all of your questions answered. On food and cocktail tours it also allows us to gain access to some venues a larger group wouldn't be able to navigate. But I find particularly on the Ghost tour, it really lends itself to an intimate storytelling atmosphere that could otherwise be easily disrupted in a larger group setting. We're so glad to hear that you had such a wonderful time and appreciated getting to know your guide. Cheers! -Brittawnée

We did a private Cocktails and History tour for my daughter's 21st birthday. It was awesome! Ty is a terrific guide and took us to some great places, which we never would have gone to on our own. The pace was very relaxed and we learned a lot about the history of the cocktails as well as about the history of New Orleans and the French Quarter. We've done just about every tour available through New Orleans Secrets, and they are hands down the best. Small groups and extremely knowledgeable guides.

I went on the french quarter history and cocktail tour with my girlfriend and we had an amazing time! Roger, our tour guide, was wonderful. He was very knowledgeable and did a great job of teaching the history of the city while keeping it fun. Plus, delicious drinks! Would recommend to anyone interested in French Quarter history and a few good drinks.

New Orleans has such a unique place in the history of cocktail culture and it never hurts to have a delicious cocktail in hand while learning something new. So glad to hear you had such a great time with Roger! He's one of the best in the biz! -Brittawnée
