Love small group tours. This was a great way to explore New Orleans. We ended up as the only two so were treated to a private tour.

The trip was amazing. Saw all areas of the city with our very knowledgeable driver Oz. My only negative is that the ride was very bumpy with the roads in need of pothole repairs. A new van might be in order.
Best Tour Ever: Small van tour!
Barbara_G, Apr 2024
We had a wonderful time. The van tour for a small group is rhe way to go. More personalized and flexible. Our tour guide, Oz was awesome. He's got lots of jokes to keep it lively and very knowledgeable of the history. Excellent tour and one of the highlights of our visit to New Orleans!
Oz was a great tour...
Dave_M, Apr 2024
Oz was a great tour guide. He was accommodating in our pick up and drop off plans. The tour exposed us to areas of New Orleans outside the French Quarter. He carefully explained the history, culture and impact of Hurricane Katrina. Since he was a local resident his insight was particularly credible.

Teddy was so knowledgeable about New Orleans and its history. He continually explained areas we were driving through and pointed out interesting buildings, etc. I feel the tour really gave us the New Orleans experience in one trip.

Great Start to New Orleans Experience!
NikiNTrevor_W, Apr 2024
Oz was a fountain of information regarding his hometown of New Orleans. We always do a tour first day at our destination to get to know the places we would like to return to. This one did not disappoint. We stopped for a beignet midway through the tour. The park was beautiful! Well worth the money!
Great tour on first day in NOLA
Karyn_S, Apr 2024
Oz did a great job of showing us all around the city and gave us interesting information about circumstances surrounding the Katrina tragedy. We got our bearings in a new city, saw some wonderful sights, and enjoyed Oz's leadership.
