This is the Way to Experience New Orleans

Published on Dec, 2024

This is an A+ experience from start to finish. Kristen spoke with me by phone and explained the tour options. She was very personable and made arrangements for our four hour private tour with Marc. Marc is a native son and has created a one of a kind tour of this beautiful city. We traveled to the many neighborhoods encompassing New Orleans and were given interesting historical highlights and insights along the way. Marc clearly loves his city and knows how to share this with tourists. I would imagine that people who travel to New Orleans do not experience many of the sights that we saw along the way. Marc also made suggestions for how to continue to enjoy the city during the rest of our stay. We are looking forward to returning to New Orleans in order to take one of Marc’s dining tours.

Fun and educational

Published on Nov, 2024

The City Tour was an eye opening experience. From the music and food to the architecture, we learned the history of neighborhoods, drove through parks and saw how the infrastructure has evolved in response to severe weather events. Stopping and walking around when we wanted to verses an organized schedule made the tour worth the price.

Interesting and different tour.

Published on Nov, 2024

Marc was incredibly knowledgeable, interesting and professional. Saw and learned things I didn’t see in 20+ years of coming to NOLA. Truly a tour that is not the usual tourist experience. Highly recommend!

The Best Way to See All of New Orleans

Published on Oct, 2024

This is a very late review (we took this tour all the way back in June), but Marc's tour is the best! I have seen New Orleans through multiple walking tours, by boat, and via trolley and by far this tour showed me so much more than any other tour or independent travel can. It covers a considerably larger distance than I expected, which meant diving much deeper into the history and stories that Marc was extremely knowledgeable about. He was timely, informative, and gave us great tips on where to visit and eat (Broussard’s for brunch & Napoleon House for the Muffuletta!!). We stopped at a great coffee shop for a bite and the rest of the excursion was in the glorious AC of his SUV (again, the best way to tour NOLA in the summer!) I am so grateful for this memorable tour that I was able to share with my dad for his first NOLA visit. Thank you Marc!!

Mark P is the best tour guide ever

Published on Oct, 2024

Mark took us on a wonderful tour of New Orleans and the surrounding areas. He did a fantastic job of showing us all different areas including the park and a delicious snack. He is very kind and personal.
