Our Celebration Tour guide picked us up at the Basin Street Station, and we boarded a ten- passenger van. I found it a bit cramped for space, and the AC was on way too high, but the driver later turned it down at our request. We covered a lot of New Orleans, starting in the French Quarter, then moving out to the areas affected byKatrina. The driver was also the guide, and I found this didn't work too well, because he was basically doing two important things, and often the information part was left hanging because of a traffic situation. For example, he'd say "Coming up in the next block, you'll see...." then we wouldn't know which thing to look for because he was busy with traffic. He was very- well informed, so I give him credit for that, but I think his two responsibilities, plus the cramped space, merited only four stars from me.
