Voodoo, jazz and history with an awesome tour guide. Treme is such an interesting neighborhood and not far from the French quarter.

This was our first tour in New Orleans, and we were so grateful for it, since it contextualized the city's history, landmarks, and geography, so that we would have a better appreciation for our stay. David was not only incredibly knowledgeable, but funny, kind, and attentive, even dropping us off at a great gumbo spot at the end of our tour and giving recommendations for the remainder of our trip! Thank you David!

We had not originally planned to do this tour, however we had a spare day in New Orleans and it came highly recommended by another traveler we meet and so booked in last minute and it did not disappoint, the guide was entertaining and had loads of character but was also super informative and had a fantastic ability to weave to stories and history of this area of New Orleans together into a very entertaining 2 hour walk.
Just a small note for those who don't know; you do not enter St Louis No1 cemetery on this tour as only one tour company can run tours in the cemetery, however the guide will explain the process and history of the cemetery at its gates, if you want to enter the cemetery you need to book a specific St Louis No1 tour, though this is not the fault of this tour company or guide as was a decision made buy the managers of the cemetery a few years back.
