New Orleans Wings of the Wetlands Guided Birding Expedition

Birdwatching on the Bayou!
We booked this trip because we are getting into birding and wanted to see what the brackish waters of the Mississippi Delta might have in store. Captain Emmett was very knowledgeable about Bayou wildlife. We felt safe and comfortable on the boat whole time. We saw an alligator, herons, egrets, ibis, terns, anhinga, gulls, vultures, and an osprey. It was a success and a great way to check out the Bywater neighborhood.

Great walk under the oaks!
This tour is just perfect for walkers, cyclists or even motorists. The stops are beautiful and engaging. I especially loved hearing about the Free People of Color in New Orleans as well as the less well known tales of the Luling Mansion.

New Orleans Esplanade Ridge: A Self-Guided Audio Tour

A neighborhood to enjoy over and over again
GREAT tour of a beautiful and historic NO. neighborhood The narrator is a native and folds in personal references that authenticate the tour--unlike many other tour guides. I also like that I can stop it and dwell on the beauty of an old home or historic site before moving on just by operating my phone...certainly better than following a person in a group pf 10-12 when much is missed. Cannot beat it for 5 bucks, and you'll go away appreciating the city much more.

Esplanade Ridge
We are locals and this is one of our favorite spots in the city - but to really dive in and intently walk the streets of the Esplanade Ridge was absolutely incredible! We learned so very much and at our own pace could really digest the intricacies and fascinating history of the area. We loved the small details, folklore and stories that really brought the area alive for us. You could imagine the residents in each house sipping a cognac and telling tales in the parlor ! We celebrated at the incomparable Cafe Degas and we simply cannot recall a more pleasant Saturday afternoon! The rich history is brought to life in a way that few other venues can offer. This is a must do!!!

Beautiful tour in a beautiful neighborhood
This tour is so much better than any commercial tour you could take with a bunch of other people. Go at your own pace, listen again if you like, explore a beautiful area of the city. This tour is packed with well-researched history and culture that is a steal for the price. I took this tour after enjoying Walking the Treme by the same author.

Good, informative walking tour
It was pretty informative and brings you through many notable spaces, The only downside to me is that the map seems to be slightly (few meters) off the gps coordinates. If the map is adjusted slightly or the target circle is widen, it might help
