So Entertaining - What a blast! There are so many things that go into being a stellar tour guide: topical knowledge, of course, but reading the group to know WHICH knowledge to share, awareness of surroundings, mobility and speed of the group, storytelling (versus lecturing) is huge, verbal skills, being personable and vulnerable enough to show personality…our guide, Ty, checked EVERY box! So glad I trusted New Orleans Secrets with our precious vacation time! I’m now obsessed with learning more about Micaela Almonester, Baroness de Pontalba!

Thank you so much for this review. Yes Ty is an amazing guide with so much passion for the city. Being able to learn who is in your audience is one of the main reasons why we limit ALL of our tours to just 9 guests (or fewer!). Thanks so much for spending a few hours with us and we hope to see you again soon!

We did the historic tour of the French Quarter with Dennis. It was an amazing tour. Very informative and a lot of fun. We had a great connection with him right from the start and the tour felt very personal rather than some that can feel like you schlep along while being read a script. He had so many interesting fact about the architecture, the culture and tons of great recommendations. Highly recommend!

That's precisely why we chose to limit our tours to semi-private groups of 9! Legally we can take up to 28 people out, but we prefer smaller groups so we can get to know our guests and even tailor the tours a bit to your interests where we can as well. Dennis is such a witty conversationalist too! People often say that they felt like they spent the morning with an old friend, rather than being lectured to in a crowd of many. We're lucky to have him as a part of our team and thrilled to hear that y'all had such a great time together! -Brittawnée

Dennis was absolutely wonderful! He had a passion for the history of his city and it showed. We learned so much about the architecture and history of New Orleans, it was even more fun to discover fun facts and tidbits about the homes and what they’ve inspired over the years. Definitely recommend!

We've got the inside scoop so it doesn't hurt to spill some of our "secrets" when we can! ;) And all of our guides are so thrilled to share their enthusiasm for the city. Dennis is one of the best in the biz and we're so lucky to have him as a part of our team! Thanks for leaving us a review! -Brittawnée
