The guide gave a lot of history but the food was unusual. Both the jambalaya and the gumbo tasted the same and had beef instead of seafood even tho it was at two different restaurants. Even the po boy was not seafood. Not thrilled with the food.

Yummy food, interesting stories and a really good group of fellow tourists. It was quite a loopy route around the French quarter, so I might have liked a few more historical Tod bits along the way as well. The food and private areas were almost always ready for us and delicious.

Suzette was a great tour guide - her long term experience of being a NOLA resident really showed!! She knew so much history and as we walked to our different food stops, she pointed out some of the significant spots!! For each food stop, she she gave the history behind the foods we’d be sampling! The foods at these restaurants were all so delicious! I was impressed with the portion sizes too!! Great guide and great value!! I definitely recommend if you love New Orleans cooking, love walking, and have an interest in hearing the history of their signature foods!!!

Tish was great. Wish we hit up two sisters and maybe cafe du monde for beignets but super fun time. Was told if we returned to places we visited we'd get a discount... We didn't but still went back to two or three spots
