The French Quarter Tour

Published on Nov, 2024

I have been to New Orleans many times but this was the first time for my adult daughter. While I had enjoyed the French Quarter often I had never gotten a guided tour and I thought my daughter would enjoy the tour. We both thoroughly enjoyed our guide Ty and her explanations of the history. She was very informative, giving up a lot of backstories to the monuments and buildings.

For those that love to dive into the details of a place!

Published on Apr, 2024

Great way to get to know the French Quarter if you love the history of places! Our guide, Ty, was very knowledgeable about the area and an excellent story teller. He also gave outstanding recommendations for food and drink options after the tour.

Great experience

Published on Apr, 2024

Excellent guide with superb knowledge and very interesting stories. We highly recommend the tour Learned a lot!

Entertaining & Educational!

Published on Mar, 2024

So Entertaining - What a blast! There are so many things that go into being a stellar tour guide: topical knowledge, of course, but reading the group to know WHICH knowledge to share, awareness of surroundings, mobility and speed of the group, storytelling (versus lecturing) is huge, verbal skills, being personable and vulnerable enough to show personality…our guide, Ty, checked EVERY box! So glad I trusted New Orleans Secrets with our precious vacation time! I’m now obsessed with learning more about Micaela Almonester, Baroness de Pontalba!

Fantastic French Quarter Tour

Published on Apr, 2023

We did the historic tour of the French Quarter with Dennis. It was an amazing tour. Very informative and a lot of fun. We had a great connection with him right from the start and the tour felt very personal rather than some that can feel like you schlep along while being read a script. He had so many interesting fact about the architecture, the culture and tons of great recommendations. Highly recommend!
