Coby was the best tour guide! He was super fun and better than Nicolas Cage
Thank you so much for this fantastic review! We are thrilled you enjoyed the New Orleans Premier Ghost, Voodoo and Vampire Walking Tour with Coby. Calling him better than Nicolas Cage is a pretty serious New Orleans compliment, and we have a feeling Coby is going to love that one! His fun personality and unique storytelling style definitely make for a memorable night in the French Quarter.
48 hours total to play in New Orleans, and the 3.5 hours we spent on the Bayou tour were EXCELLENT! Isabelle arrived early, waited patiently for us at our hotel door, and shared tons of fun facts on our drive to the venue. The tour was precisely on time, we saw soooooo many alligators, and enjoyed every bit of our airboat ride. This tour will not soon be forgotten!
