Lesley was terrific - we learned so much. Not just about the amazing variety of Garden District architecture, but also the history of New Orleans, including many quite colorful characters. Would highly recommend spending a couple of hours meandering through this lovely area with this knowledgeable and personable guide.

Our guide James was fantastic. Very friendly and knew a lot and nice to tell. We wanted to go to a cemetery and this was not a problem while this was no longer part of the tour. Definitely recommended.
