Enlightening Tour
Zelda is an excellent storyteller! She is very informative, personal tidbits to tell some of the stories, and funny. It is not a “ghost” tour, but a fact-based tour that is very interesting. Highly recommend!!! But do pick up a fan that is offered on the counter to try to move some air while you walk!

After-Dark Historical Night Tour of St. Louis Cemetery No. 1
Y1089UVjulien, Sep 2026
Very informational!
Our guide made it super incredible! He is a historian so everything that he was telling us was super factual, and not some of the lies you hear on the television. There was nothing paranormal about it, but just listening to the history of the cemetery and learning about the tombs and different legends that are in this cemetery was super creepy, and you felt like you were surrounded by the dead, which obviously we were lol. If you like history and learning about things from back in the day, I super recommend this tour but only at night. We did the evening tour guide, and it was still super hot in the cemetery since everything is made of brick and concrete and there was no airflow. I think it would be absolutely unbearable to do when the sun is out. Just something to keep in mind ☺️

French Quarter Food Tour

A Custom Intro to the French Quarter and it’s Foods
Brian was a great guide. He is both an author and a lover of history, and we learned a lot about New Orleans and the French Quarter during our time with him. The Sidewalk Food Tours team gave us input into the foods and locations we would visit, and the process for a private tour was flexible on timing as well. It was just the kind of intro to the Quarter that we were seeking. There is one change I would make with a do-over… I would evaluate the food options for both French Quarter and Garden District before making a decision on which tour to book. There could be more variety of options in the Garden tour. While Gumbo and Jambalaya have some significant differences, they are also very similar, and combining them in two hours is kind of heavy on rice, chicken and andouille sausage.

Amazing tour from start to finish!
Isabelle was an amazing tour guide—friendly, engaging, and incredibly knowledgeable! She made the entire experience so much fun while sharing fascinating stories and history along the way.We started with the small airboat tour at Ragin Cajun, where Mike kept us entertained and even taught us that alligators love marshmallows too! 🐊🍡 It was such a fun and memorable experience.Then we headed to Destrehan Plantation, where Isabelle gave us an informative and fascinating history lesson that really brought the plantation’s past to life.From the exciting airboat ride to the rich history of Destrehan Plantation, this was an unforgettable experience! I highly recommend this tour—especially if you’re looking for a fun, educational, and memorable way to experience Louisiana!

Amazing way to see the city!
Absolutely fantastic way to see New Orleans and get out of the French Quarter! Our guide was amazing and went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable and stopping in shaded spots - it was a melting August day!! Very leisurely cycle, with heaps of information on the route. We loved it and would actually do it again next time we visit :) Thank you!

New Orleans Heart of the City Bicycle Tour

Loved our heart of the city tour
My husband and I very much enjoyed our heart of the city bike tour @flambeauxtours with Eric. We rode our cruiser bikes through the French Quarter, Marigny, Bywater, and Tremé, each worth seeing. At just over halfway, we stopped at a coffeehouse for some much needed iced coffee. My favorite part was learning about the demographics/history of the people of New Orleans, such as the difference between Creole and Cajun. Eric is originally from the area, moved away for a while, and came back, which gives him a deep understanding and yet objectivity about the city. Eric gave us great recommendations for things to do and eat after the tour. I highly recommend #flambeauxtours.
