Our tour guide was Laurent. He was extremely informative. Excellent in conversion. Very fun to tour with.

Mrs.

The French Quarter Foodie & Cocktail Tour was EXCELLENT! Laurent was our ‘tour’ guide - his exuberance and candor were a delight and the best part was explanation of history and food was truly authentic! He brought personal experience to the mix that couldn’t be replicated by just anyone. 
Thank you Laurent for a very humorous and enjoyable evening! AND for taking a few detours to show us historical architecture that I had expressed as my reason for visiting NOLA - you gave us multiple reasons to come back!

AWESOME Experience!

Laurent Guerin is an outstanding guide for New Orleans! He brings his experience as a French chef and his passion for New Orleans to the tour and takes his time to share amazing historical stories. The food and drink was outstanding and well organized. I highly recommend this event.

High end cocktails, food, and tour guide! Highly recommend!!

Amazing!

Not all of the "history" was accurate.  It would have been good to know where we were going before the tour.  The food as very good, the guide was funny and engaging.

A good tour overall

Miss Lisa was very accommodating and very knowledgeable about the history of every place we went, and the foods we were eating. She was genuinely happy to answer all questions and kept everyone feeling happy. We had a very difficult person in our group, but she did an excellent job at keeping everyone happy throughout. She even walked with me and some of the others to another restaurant location she recommended ❤️ Thanks so much! Will recommend to my friends!

Even with a difficult customer, Lisa was still excellent!
