45 minutes was the perfect amount of time to get a good tour but still be comfortable in the summer heat. Libby was very knowledgeable and a great storyteller. I appreciated that she asked if we had any specific sights we wanted to see first! I would definitely book a tour again!
Thank you so much for this fantastic review! We are dedicated to making sure that our guests get as much as possible out of our 45 minutes together, so we do try to answer questions and show people what they want to see. I hope you do return and book with us again. Thank you so much for taking the time to help out this little company with this awesome review. Libby
We had such an amazing architectural tour of the Garden District with Libby! Even though the tour was only 45 minutes long, she packed an incredible amount of history, architecture, and local knowledge into every minute. Of course the homes are breathtaking, but what really made the experience special was learning to appreciate all of the details we otherwise may not have noticed. Libby pointed out everything from the special landscapes and native trees to the intricate iron gates, historic architectural features, and even the iconic gas lanterns. She had so much knowledge about both the past and present of every home. She helped us see the neighborhood through a deeply intricate lens. Libby is engaging, fun, and insightful which kept everyone interested from start to finish. You can tell she has an extensive knowledge not only of the Garden District, but of New Orleans as a whole and its rich, layered history. She answered questions thoughtfully and shared amazing detailed stories that made the neighborhood come alive. This ended up being one of our favorite experiences of the trip. We left with a much deeper appreciation for the beauty, history, and character of both the Garden District and New Orleans as a whole and we would absolutely recommend taking a tour with Libby to anyone visiting the city. The 45 min tour is nice if you’re short on time or struggle with the heat for long periods. She made sure there was lots of time in the shade.
Wow! This review is going up on our wall of fame! Thank you so much for all of the detail and praise. We deeply appreciate you taking the time to describe our tour through the Garden District. It is an incredible neighborhood, and we are so grateful to be able to tell it’s stories to visitors. The 45 minute time frame works well for so many reasons, and we are proud that you noticed. We are still here collecting stories and sharing them with guests, and we hope that you join us another time. Libby
Libby was so great! This 45 minute tour was perfect for highlighting the high points of the history of the garden district with so many cool stories along the way. Thank you! We thoroughly enjoyed it.
Thank you for taking the time to leave this wonderful review! There is so much to see in New Orleans, that sometimes visitors can only squeeze in about 45 minutes in the gorgeous Garden DIstrict. We are here to make those 45 minutes count! It was a pleasure to walk with you through this elegant neighborhood. We hope that you come again. Thank you for the recommendation! Libby
She was amazing, super friendly and lots of facts!
Thank you! Friendliness and facts – that’s us! I’m so happy that you chose us to show you around the beautiful Garden District, and I hope you come walk another neighborhood with us next time you’re in town. See you then! Libby
Libby was an amazing guide—lots of interesting stories and details about the people and landmarks of this great neighborhood. I’d definitely recommend it!
Thank you so much for taking the time to leave this wonderful review! I’m so happy you enjoyed our walk through the neighborhood. The homes are beautiful, but when you get to hear the stories behind them it makes it all so much more interesting. Please come walk with me again! Thanks for the recommendation. Libby
Libby gave us a great, succinct history of New Orleans and how the neighborhood came to be. It was the perfect length for us at a tight 45min - as we had dinner plans but still wanted to get some of the great history of the city.
Thank you! We believe that the short tours should be like an appetizer (bursting with flavor) or a short story, where every word is important. We are so happy that you enjoyed our time in the Garden District! Please come again. Libby
Lesley was an excellent tour guide! This tour is great when you are short on time and tours you around the highlights of the garden district. Highly recommend!
Thank you! Lesley is indeed an absolute master at condensing her knowledge of the Garden District into one quick and fun tour. Thanks for the recommendation! Libby
My husband and I visited NOLA for the first time to celebrate our 25th anniversary. We wanted to get away from Bourbon St. for a bit before our dinner reservation. This tour was just perfect and exactly what we were looking for. It is not a huge time commitment but we still felt like we saw and learned a lot in a short period of time. We loved seeing the beautiful homes and learning about the history of Nola. Libby was awesome. She has a great energy and is very knowledgeable. We will definitely be back and highly recommend this tour!
Thank you so much for this review and recommendation! It was a pleasure for me to walk with y’all and to be a small part of your fun anniversary weekend. The Garden District is lovely, and we are able to squeeze in some great sites, even in the 45 minute timeframe. I am looking forward to walking with y’all next time you come. Bring the kids! Libby
This a great quick tour for those on a condensed schedule. James has a mastery of Garden District history and New Orleans in general to share. Lovely walk.
Thank you for this great review! We designed the 45 minute tours for travelers that are trying to see as much of New Orleans as possible. We work hard to condense as much information as we can into the short walk, while keeping it fun. James is a master at this, and we are so happy that you enjoyed your time with him. Please come walk with us another time! Libby
Shorter walking tour of the Garden District covered all the highlights. James was very knowledgeable and personable. Considering we were the only ones on the tour, he provided some personalized information and recommendations. Highly recommend.
