Wonderful, informative tour of the French Quarter with Nate. We learned so much useful and fun facts. !

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!

The whole experience was nice. Our guide was very informative nice and funny. It was nice to see some of the different parts of NOLA .The main attraction was our carrier guide with ger pink painted hooves 🙂(unfortunately I dont remember her name). Enjoyed it all and would do again!

We had a lot of fun with our carriage ride. Seen a side of New Orleans (outside of the downtown area) that we would not have seen otherwise. Architecture of the homes were just outstanding. Love all the vivid colors of the homes and WHY they paint them as they do. The ride was so relaxing. Next time, if you are hard of hearing, we recommend you sit up front as you can't hear the driver as well in the back of the carriage. Hope you do this while visiting New Orleans.

It was a wonderful experience. Trish and Desire was super sweet and accommodating. (Carriage was really packed from rescheduled day tours because of rain) However, I felt the commentary was limited. (And it could be, again, the carriage was very full) I was hoping for a little more history and stories from the past. Overall, great experience. Would definitely do again, as I’m sure every tour is a bit different.
