I’m glad we did this tour. You get to cover more ground than just the walking tour. Guide was friendly and knowledgeable. Got to see parts of the area you may not walk too, but loved hearing the history behind the buildings and neighborhoods.
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!
