Good tour and tour guide
In my opinion, over priced and short. Based on the main house. No history of the rest of the property.

Houmas House
Wonderful day spent with a true New Orleans native whose family roots went back 300 years. Museum and map room were added delights. A peek into the past.

Worth the time
Our visit to the museum was enjoyable and enlightening. It was especially nice because we were treated to a guided introduction by the curator’s sister who just happened to be in the foyer when we arrived. Her passion and excitement for the displays and artifacts brought history to life.

Patrick was great!
So we got Patrick! He was very clear and was funny! Made the trip worth it.... BUT the tour itself? Not worth it... just to see the house and that’s it? I thought we’d learn more about the slaves but I guess that’s only the Whitney house.. I wish he website would’ve been more clear about that... but again, Patrick’s enthusiasm, jokes and kindness made it a pleasant experience!!
