My son and I went to New Orleans to celebrate his 18-birthday and while we signed up for several tours, Stephen Medina made this tour the BEST. He was AWESOME!! Not only super knowledgeable but incredibly fun to spend 2 hours with.....and more had it been an option. Ask for Stephen for your tour!! You will love him!

Nice but too long!
about 2 years ago
The tour was nice but while it was supposed to be 2 hours it took nearly 45 mins more(which we hadn't expected and it made it much too long for the topics). PLUS when the tour ended, we were at the cemetery and had then to walk back to the beginning spot which took another 15 mins at a fast pace, to get back to the starting point (office). This tour would be better if it started with everyone assembling at the tour office followed by a quick trolley ride to the cemetery with the walk back to the office as the French Quarter tour part. Cemetery first then the French Quarter would be best!
