Felt like Junior High History Class
Alison_C, Apr 2024
Dry, boring, hard to hear. These tours are so dependent on the guide you get. Ours was not enthusiastic or engaging and did not tell very memorable or interesting stories. She covered the history of New Orleans in general for about half of the tour while we stood on the sidewalk, then we started walking around the French Quarter. She pointed out a few interesting things in the quarter but we were zoned out by then.

Steve was out tour guide. The tour started at the river walk and ended at St. Louis 1 cemetery. Did not even seem like the walk was a mile or a little more. The cemetery was awesome and Steve was able to answer all the questions on the tour.

I really like to see the Cemetery and spend more time in there but it was very crowed with all other tourist. It worth to see the old Cemetery and the history of how it been created.
