Our tour guide Christie was excellent. It was a good sampling of foods. Learning of the history behind the foods and the area was great.

DeAnna was a wonderful knowledgeable guide. Her long family history in New Orleans shined thru her voice. Her practical flavor of history peppered with a little mystery was there perfect blend for us.

Although we really enjoyed the tour the food was a little disappointing. We received 2 praline cookies, 1praline candy, a small bowl of duck gumbo which was good, an alligator sausage which was excellent and a shrimp PoBoy which was terrible. Nate our guide did an excellent job and we enjoyed his stories. But for the price I couldn’t recommend it.
