Amazing!!! Will come back for fourth tour! - Meg was absolutely amazing! She had so much knowledge, pulling from her teaching roots, and made my 75+ mom so at ease. How can you not adore a tour guide you run into the next day, with her current tour, who shouts out and gives you hugs?! My husband and I did tour twice before this one, I will continue to come back and recommend! Love!

Rich NOLA Experience! - What else can I wish for with this combo tour with Gary as our Tour Guide? It’s an awesome experience before the start of my week vacation. I would recommend having a food tour in every place you visit at the start of your week vacay so you know where to dine after that. Worth the price with the cocktails and food you get during the tour that I was able to take it home with me. I highly recommend this tour to everyone who visits NOLA!

Great tour with Meg - Meg gave us a wonderful tour. She mix Louisiana, New Orleans history with food and drink history for the area. She was very entertaining and engaging. I highly recommend taking a tour with "Nurse Gumbo" or maybe it was "Nurse Jambalaya", we did have a few cocktails and gave her the nickname.

Disappointed - This food tour was so disappointing 😭. In my opinion we barely got food. We got a small bowl of gumbo & hurricane. The gumbo was ok but the drink was good. Next we tried a praline. We also got a sandwich and rice at the Napoleon House. The rice was good but the sandwich was not good. The four people at my table did not touch it. We got taken to a hot sauce store and we didn’t even get a sample there lol. It honestly was not worth the price I paid. The tour guide was amazing! She was really nice so I will say that. Do not recommend this tour one bit.
