Excellent guide...very informative, funny, and organized in taking us around the city. It was a hot day and she was thoughtful about keeping us in the shade, making sure we got cold water or bathroom breaks (if needed) along the way! Loved her!

Erin is an enthusiastic, welcoming and easy-going guide. She mentioned a ton of different historical information with no hesitation to answer questions in detail. The language speed as well as the walking speed were comfy to get along.

We absolutely loved this tour! Our tour guide was incredibly knowledgeable about the history of New Orleans and the FQ as well as explaining a lot about voodoo and the role it’s played in the city. It was not a sensationalist / gimmicky tour but really went into the actual history and people who make New Orleans what it is.

Mannnnn. Give Nika not only a raise but make her President of America. I’ve been on a lot of tours and this was my favorite. Not only was she well informed. Above and beyond educated on these topics. Her energy and her excitment about the topics at hand are unmatched. She is amazing. Nika for President 2024

Nika was the highlight of our tour. Despite the light rain, she made it fun, memorable, entertaining, and informative.
When, not if, you take this tour, ask for Nika!
