Sunny Disposition on a Rainy Day - Jack was a great sport despite the downpour. We very thoughtful to watch that we got out of the rain and crossed the street/ puddles safely.

A really lovely afternoon with lots of food - We had a fabulous afternoon with Susan as our guide. We opted for the small group option and we ended up with a great group of 8 people. Susan was really friendly and informative - she told us so much about the history of food in New Orleans but also a whole lot more about New Orleans and its history - she was also happy to answer all of our random questions about anything, food or otherwise. It was really nice to be able to chat with all the others in the group as we walked around and at the various stops. And then the food....definitely don't need to eat in advance - these aren't just small samples but proper portions of calas, muffeletta, gumbo, alligator sausage, po-boy and praline. A hugely enjoyable afternoon!

10/10 - Our tour today was amazing. Very insightful, educational and great food! Susan was amazing, she was very informative and ensured that everyone enjoyed their meals and shared all the knowledge she could. Thank you so much Susan in New Orleans! We would definitely do this again and we’re recommending it to our friends! (Side note, we had the most amazing oysters and gumbo!) Thank you Susan and her team/restaurants.

Fun and delicious - The tour was absolutely worth it! The tastings were delicious and the information was quite interesting. Our tour guide, Susan, was quite charming and made the experience not only informative, but also fun. This was not a “skimpy” experience, so be prepared to make this your meal. I highly recommend.

Fun tour if you want to learn more about local foods - With only a short time in New Orleans we thought this would be a great tour to learn more about the local food and to get some ideas on where to eat and what to eat whilst we are here, and we were right. Susan, our tour guide, was really informative and as we moved around to different locations we got the opportunity to try a variety of different things. At each location Susan gave us background and insights into the food we were trying and I definitely learnt quite a lot. The tour was around 3 hours and we certainly weren’t hungry by the end of it. I would recommend this tour and, if all the guides are as good as Susan, I’m sure you’ll have a great time.

Overall amazing food and guide but portion sizes on the smaller side - Our guide Nate was amazing and explained in detail the history and significance of each dish that we ate in New Orleans. There were 6 different items that we tried including 2 calas balls, 1 gator andouille sausage, a snack sized shrimp po boy, small bowl of gumbo, praline and 2 praline cookies. Whilst they all tasted great, we felt like the portion sizes were quite small and could have been bigger considering the price of the tour. We would recommend the tour but you might still be hungry if you’ve got quite the appetite!
