Bob in the black had is one awesome narrator!! He is extremely knowledgeable, friendly & a safe driver.
Very knowledgeable driver and was safe. The 2 hours was just enough. Driver called before pickup. Made sure they were who they are.
A wonderful three hour trip with a a great guide, Joe. He is a very knowledgeable about NOLA and made the trip fun
Great way to see New Orleans in comfort 💞 Great tour guide, provided a great deal of information of places to visit outside the French Quarter.
Excellent tour and Joseph our tour guide/ driver had amazing knowledge of New Orleans. Best tour ever
Nice tour, I took 43 they split us in 2 buses. One of the buses had a faulty air-conditioner. Roasting us in the bus for over an hour. I had elderly and infants with me. The heat was miserable for all. The tour guy Bob was a trooper and tried to continue telling us about new orleans but with sweat dripping it was hard to listen. We are requesting a refund.
Wow, I learned so much. Joe was our driver & guide & he was awesome! We stopped at a cemetery, cafe du monde in the park & Katrina memorial. You can tell he loves his city. We learned so much, saw so much & I’m so glad we took the tour. I would highly recommend. The only other recommendation would be to try to sit at the front of the van because the back is very bumpy..
Bus was hot no one happy, suspension horrible . Narrator told a lot of lies. And with Black people on board should talk about freeing slaves. And or giving blacks getting Sundays off. If I could get a refund I would
Very informative and entertaining. It may benefit more if the driver not also the one speaking. Talking may be distracting but Joseph was very good and professional.
Joseph was absolutely amazing! I cannot recommend this tour enough! He took us on three stops and pickup was so easy!
