Spectacular Tour

Published on Oct, 2022

Dominick was spectacular! His knowledge of New Orleans is impressive. He is very informative, welcomes all questions, drives safely and we were very comfortable not only in the vehicle but with Dominick in general. He has prepared a lengthy tour full of history and fun. We had the best time, well worth the money and highly recommend this tour!

New Orleans Tour with Dominick Musso

Published on Nov, 2021

Dominick Musso is the best tour guide that I've ever seen. His knowledge of New Orleans is simply unsurpassed, including the history of the city, how the city has prepared itself for future hurricanes and excellent restaurant recommendations, including Tableau and GW Fins, 2 of the best restaurants in the French Quarter.

Best tour in any city I’ve ever taken!

Published on Aug, 2021

Dominick was fantastic! One of the best tour guides in any city I’ve been in! He was a city planner for New Orleans and has lived in the city for generations so has a very personal and insightful engagement! Amazing!!!

Excellent Private Tour in NOLA

Published on Jul, 2020

We were so pleased with our two, half-day tours with Dominick. Because of COVID-19, we were unable to do a driving tour with him, but he did an excellent job of adapting his tour. He contacted us by phone and email in the weeks before our visit to keep us updated on what was open and making sure he could show us the things we wanted to see. He grew up in New Orleans, and he has boundless knowledge about the history, people, geography, and sites. We would highly recommend him for your private tour.
