Tanya was a superb guide. She gave a very thorough tour of the garden district and a cemetery. And she kept it all fun. When we come back I'm sure we will do the City Tour with her, too.

Wealth of local knowledge

Charles_W, Jan 2024

Tonya was a great tour guide and imparted a wealth of information about the history of New Orleans. We learned so much about the culture and happenings of New Orleans from a local, and were able to see the true city behind the tourist attractions. With her information we changed the plans for the rest of our trip and had an even more amazing time!
