Dominick was our tour guide. He was super knowledgeable and educational. He taught and showed us many things about New Orleans that have been "hidden in plain site" to us.
I've been to New Orleans a few times over the years and this was my first tour. I'm shocked by how much I've missed over the years by just going with the crowd and I highly recommend this tour to anyone that wants a deeper understanding of the culture, neighborhoods, and history of this area.

We were met a few minutes early by our knowledge guide. He is a native of the city and he knew the history well. He never rushed us and answered all questions politely.
