It was a very nice tour. Meg did an awesome job sharing the history of Nola with us. And we really enjoyed the food.
Beth was absolutely incredible! She was engaging, knowledgeable, and hilarious. She explained the history of buildings we were passing on our tour, the history of how New Orleans came to have their iconic food culture, and so many other anecdotes about this rich city! The food was all wonderful, we even made our way back to one of the spots (Nola Poboys) to try some more of their menu. Don’t skip out on this tour when you’re in the city. Thanks again, Beth!
Our tour guide, Beth, was amazing! The food was above expectations and Beth’s knowledge of history was on point;) One of my favorite tours ever.
Great way to taste the best of local foods!
This was a great food tour! Our guide Beth did a wonderful job describing the historical evolution of the region and it’s cuisine, while keeping all members of the group engaged. The food samples were diverse, delicious and plentiful. You will not leave hungry!
The guy was very informative and friendly and was a very great trip. Me and my wife had a wonderful time and recommended for anybody going there.
What a great experience. Our guide, Dylan was the best, he explained the history of New Orleans as well as the origin of many of the delicious dishes we were served. The sites he chose were unique and the food was so good. We did not feel rushed at the establishments we visited and had time to get to know the other guests in our group. It was well worth the price of admission.
This was a good way to get a brief history and sample the local food of New Orleans. We went back to a couple of the restaurants that we sampled because we were pleased with the food. The guide was great. She provided some good recommendations on where to get specific entrees we’re looking for and we went back to that places multiple times. I would recommend doing this tour!
It was so much fun our guide Meg made sure we were taken care of and was a wealth of knowledge when it came to NOLA and its culture. Highly recommend this tour!
The tour was delicious and informative. We loved the history behind the foods and appreciated Beth’s knowledge and her unique ability to tell us stories of the past. She’s one of one. If you love good food and history…Take the tour with Beth.
