We had a great time on this tour. Jordan was very personable and funny, as well as knowledgeable. Would recommend to anyone!
I really enjoyed our guide and her enthusiasm, but some of the stories were really long and others were local stories we had heard about on other tours. The meeting place was very loud, which made the first 20min story hard to stand and listen to. As engaging as the guide was, I did consider not completing the tour. I gave it four out of five because of her, and maybe people would have enjoyed it more if they didn't know about the Gothic Quarter. For me, it was history plus two ghost/haunted/macabre stories.
Thank you for your thoughtful feedback. We’re glad you enjoyed the guide and her enthusiasm, and we appreciate your comments about the story length, familiar local stories, and the noisy meeting place. We hope to welcome you again!
Wr actually had to skip this tour tonight as we over estimated our schedule for the day and were too tired to take the tour 🤦🏻♀️
