Exactly what I wanted
My tour guide, Catherine kept in contact with me from the moment I booked this tour. She wanted to make sure that we got what we were looking for. Which we got. If there was a topic that interested us we got it. She toughed it out even when it rained. Alot of walking (2hrs) worth the money. May even contact her on the next trip!

Brilliant private tour with Stefan
We had an amazing tour guide who took us round the French Quarter. Stefan lived and worked in the area and had a wealth of knowledge to share about the history of the area and certain buildings, as well as his own personal anecdotes. He showed us places that we never would have seen otherwise and we shared some amazing local food and drinks with him.I would throughly recommend this tour.

New Orleans Esplanade Ridge: A Self-Guided Audio Tour

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.

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.

We are crazy and drove 14 hours from Ohio over night straight into our tour. Our guide Catherine (Cat) took a shot with us then toured us around in a lovey natural way showing us lots of local spots.

New Orleans Esplanade Ridge: A Self-Guided Audio Tour

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.
