Content was dry. The guide got visually upset multiple times at trivial things. When we asked questions that he didnt think were "good enough".... his tone would go left field. Honestly it was absolutely awkward.

Nice tour before the heat of the day. Guide was very knowledgeable. Wish I had known in advance two things: That I was the only one on the tour That many businesses in the are closed on Mondays & Tuesdays.

I went on the Historique Vieux tour in the French Quarter and I absolutely loved it! Carlo was an exceptional tour guide. He was extremely knowledgeable and engaging. I learned so much about the history of New Orleans, historical figures who contributed to the city, and famous restaurants. The price of the tour is great compared to other tour companies. When I return to New Orleans, I will be taking another Storyville Tour. I highly recommend this company!
