Incredible Tour and Guide

This was a great tour! The food was absolutely amazing. I will warn it was small portions but I read other reviews so I was prepared for it which is why my review is still high. Lisa was an absolutely incredible guide. She is extremely knowledgeable on the history of not just the restaurants, but the history of New Orleans as well. There wasn’t a question she didn’t know the answer to. Absolutely amazing experience.

Well worth the time and money - delicious!

Brian provided a great tour! It was a nice balance of information, walking through the French Quarter, and delicious food. We thought it was going to be small samples but each of the five stops was an ample amount of food. The tour and Brian’s wisdom set us up for a wonderful rest of our stay!

Great food and knowledgeable guide

I liked this tour because we actually sat in the restaurant to eat the samples. So many food tours are stand-up affairs. The food was great, especially the streets! Our tour guide Lisa had great stories about New Orleans history and the food we ate.

Knowledgeable guide, great food!

Our guide was Lisa. She was excellent! Her background in New Orleans history and culture played into the food and walk through the French Quarter. The food choices were wonderful and we experienced things we had not tried before on previous visits to New Orleans. I can't recommend this tour enough to people who want to learn about the area while eating delicious food.

Operator response

Hi Martha, Lisa is wonderful! We love that your noted trying things you hadn't had before. That's one of our favorite parts of our tours! Expanding knowledge and your palette!
