Leisurely, informative, and Harris is da bomb!
He was very articulate and we learned so much about the Garden District history, a little bit of basics about New Orleans history, and how they fit together like a cool puzzle.

Angie is an incredible and knowledgeable local host. In a little over two hours, my wife and I learned about the history of the Garden District, the varied architectural styles throughout the neighborhood and a few celebrity homes along the route also pointing out the different flora along the way. Our Angie is enthusiastic and incredibly passionate about NOLA and Louisiana as a whole. We also talked a little about Lafayette Cemetery #1 (closed for "renovations" since 2017, so we were only able to peer in through the gates). Bring comfortable shoes and water (can get hot - it's New Orleans, after all).

10/10 would recommend!

We took the Garden District tour with our guise Angie on May 13, 2024. There were 11 guests total. Angie was funny, professional and very informative. The cemetery is closed, but she still provided a lot of great information. I suggest you wear comfortable walking shoes. Highly recommend this tour.
