A Great Experience in New Orleans
My mom bought this experience for me as a surprise. I have always wanted to fly a plane. This was beyond our expectations. My flight instructor Jacob is very knowledgeable and passionate about flying. He was a lot of fun and made sure we had a great experience. The young lady at the front was super sweet and made the check in process quick and easy. We would definitely do this again. Thank you Jacob!!!

Wonderful tour!
Cassandra took us into all the areas of the city, mostly driving (our choice) but we did our share of walking in the French Quarter and at the Cemetery. Cassandra had so much knowledge, provided visuals to help us understand the history, answered all our questions, provided suggestions for restaurants and other sites near our hotel, and all in all made our first trip to New Orleans perfect.

New Orleans Small-Group 3 Plantation Tour with Gourmet Lunch

Great time on the three plantation tour!
This is a great tour! Our tour guide, Giselle with Tours by Isabelle, was oustanding. Lots of history and local information during the drive and at the plantations. Visited three plantations, each one was different so we got a wide range of experiences on one tour. The time at each plantations was good; not too long and not too short. The included lunch at Houmas House was very good. Very enjoyable day, I would recommend this tour.

Airboat and Plantations Tour with Gourmet Lunch from New Orleans

Isabella worked with us to fix the weather
The tours were great. Isabella planned the perfect tour. Each manor was so different. Rene was the tour guide that took us to the mansions and was knowledgeable and energetic. Because of the wether, we did not get to do the airboat the same day, but Isabella set it up for us to do on a later date. She made it easy . The food was great as well. Rene had umbrellas and ponchos ready for us each step. Thinking ahead about our needs

Henley’s Private Tours – “Educational-Comfortable-Entertaining”
Lsides, Jun 2026
Glen Henley’s private tour is a must-do if you want to see and understand New Orleans.
I’ve lived in New Orleans and have returned regularly with my family for over 50 years. We thought it might be fun to arrange for a tour to introduce the city to a friend who has never visited there before. We were wonderfully surprised at the neighborhoods, cemeteries and special place to eat that Glen introduced all of us to on his fact filled and engaging tour. Glen’s personality and knowledge of New Orleans history are delightful. And his support for a wheelchair dependent traveler only added to the value we received. You will be greeted by an exceptional person. And you will be dropped off after your tour by a friend.

A wonderful experience with Glen Henley's Private Tours
My husband and I were looking for a private tour, as due to my mobility issues I am not able to keep up with group tours, so this was ideal for us. Before arriving in New Orleans, Glen and I exchanged emails to ensure that we would see as much as we could on our first visit to New Orleans. We opted for an extended tour as there was a lot to cover. Glen picked us up from our hotel in a very comfortable car which enabled us to experience it all at our own pace and he even provided a walker for me to use. We started with a stop at a viewpoint overlooking the Mississippi River so that Glen could give us an interesting background and history of NOLA with photos and maps. We then drove all over the city which his tour itinerary covered which included the French Quarter, Garden District, Cemetery No.3, City Park, Lake Pontehartrain, pumping stations and many more. Glen explained about Hurricane Katrina and the aftermath. We stopped for a quick lunch at a deli and were able to chat with Glen and learn more about New Orleans. We continued our tour with Glen telling us about the history, culture, and beautiful architecture as we passed by. I had previously asked Glen to take us to the Matairie Cemetery, famous for its stunning, ornate tombs. considered one of the most beautiful in the country. Glen kindly drove us around it, stopping for us to take photographs. By the end of the tour we had covered everything on my list and more! We had a great time and leanred so much. We can highly recommend Glen and this tour to those seeking an in depth and personal city tour with a terrific guide. Thank you, Glen, for sharing your knowledge and love of New Orleans. Carolyn and Malcolm Rockell from the U.K

Personalized "Highlights of New Orleans" Tour is Fantastic
My wife and I went on a “Highlights of New Orleans” tour with Cassandra from ‘Soul of NOLA’ on April 8 2026. While this tour is more expensive than others, it is completely worth the price. We met Cassandra on the courthouse steps in the French District and after introducing herself she immediately asked us what our plans were for our vacation and what we were most interested in seeing. She then adapted her standard tour to best fit our needs as opposed to following a set itinerary. Cassandra was extremely knowledgeable about the history of New Orleans and its people and we learned a lot. Throughout the tour, Cassandra made numerous recommendations for restaurants and musical acts and venues that matched our specific interests and tastes. We were able to catch two performances that she suggested and we enjoyed both of them immensely. We highly recommend Soul of NOLA and this tour for anyone who wants an overview of NOLA and a guide who will provide you with tailor made suggestions.

We learned so much about a lot of things about NOLA. Michaela is outgoing and fun. She is a native and knows so much about her community. She took us all over and even out to the Bayou for an air boat ride. This is a must tour for anyone vacationing in New Orleans for the first time. Truly the highlight of our trip!
