Our tour touched on various jazz greats and their contributions to the music scene with interesting commentary on each and some general info about the history of the town and its architecture. Our guide, Adam, was very friendly and knowledgeable and made sure everyone was comfortable and well taken care of throughout the tour. He did his research before the tour to find the best representative New Orleans style jazz playing that evening and made sure we were able to enjoy our time at the venue.
