Traveler Reviews

Wow this was a great tour and Suzanne was wonderful. Very informative! We learned and saw a lot!!!!!

Excellent experience filled with wonderful history! Danielle knows and loves her New Orleans; her enthusiasm is contagious and fun! We highly recommend a tour of the Garden District with her. You'll walk away with a greater appreciation and love for New Orleans.

Joan was so lovely and knowledgeable. She is from this area and can share so much history. Excellent tour and we were lucky to just have the five of us. We preferred a smaller group than the large ones we passed along the way

Took the Garden District Tour with Joan. I was the only person on the tour due to a reschedule by the others. Joan was super nice, right on time, very knowledgeable. The tour lasted longer than the scheduled 2 hours, she was excited about the history and wanted me to see absolutely everything! Walked me most of the way to my next destination too. My only suggestion would be that she has so many facts in her head it’s sometimes hard for her to pick out the right ones immediately! Thoroughly enjoyed it!

Our guide, Joan, provided exactly the tour we wanted, full of history with interesting anecdotes and personalities, making the Garden District come alive. Our small group, only 4, got the royal treatment as Joan answered every question asked and was a wealth of information about this unique aspect of New Orleans history. I am a native of New Orleans yet I learned much about the architecture and families of the Garden District on this tour. Joan was attentive to the needs of the group, making a small detour along the way for a "facilities" stop. Unfortunately, Lafayette Cemetery is still closed but Joan was able to touch on the highlights of the Cemetery from the gate. We recommend this tour, and especially Joan, to anyone seeking a serious introduction to the Garden District of New Orleans.
