Our favorite experience in NOLA - The bike tour with Eric was hands down our favorite experience in NOLA. We thought Eric's bike tour was perfect--full of interesting information about the local language and geography, personal stories, and fascinating stops along the route. It was a real pleasure to spend time with someone with a rich life history in the area who has both local knowledge and researched facts. The four of us (two couples) of various fitness levels highly recommend this tour to anyone who has curiosity about places they visit.

Seeing the city on two wheels - We toured with Corey. We saw some cool stuff and learned some history. Fun ride about 3 hr and 15 min. More talking than riding. We liked it.

Awesome Way to See the City - My family of six were fortunate to have Cory as our guide two days before Christmas. He was knowledgeable, patient, informative and funny. Easy riding with lots of breaks. Learned a lot about the history of New Orleans. Much better than riding around in a bus. Would do it again in a heartbeat! I give this tour my highest recommendation!!!
