Charming and a nice relaxing way to see some of the French quarter with some history and fun facts included. Easy on and off. Nice tour guide, kat!
You and your guests are going to love the opportunity to sit back and relax while your carriage driver unfolds 300 years of fun-filled history on your mule-drawn carriage ride. We cover the storied history of New Orleans, discussing everything from our resilient culture to the aging architecture. While our carriage tours cover a ton of history, they aren't boring history lectures. Aside from history, we'll chat about things like food, cocktails, nightclubs, jazz, museums, must-sees, and things to do!

I don’t remember the name of the awesome tour guide. He was an older, slow movin black gentleman, but his horses name was Jim. He was very personable, friendly and knowledgeable during the tour. We got to see more than just the French Quarter and he had a ton of facts and history about a lot of stuff. Getting to sit upfront next to him and Jim was the highlight of my day.

The guide was very knowledgeable and a lot of fun. The horse’s name was Norma, and she was a mule. I know this because our guide told us that. She seemed to know her way around the French Quarter better than many of the locals.
