Take this tour-you won’t be disappointed! - Our tour guide Milton was amazing! He had so much knowledge of the area and the history. He took care to try to keep us cool and in the shade. At the end of the tour, he directed a friend and I to a little hole in the wall bar for a beverage and restroom, then drove by to check on us. Highly recommend!

Steeped in History - We loved our tour with Milton. The man is a New Orleans native and an absolute wealth of knowledge. He taught us all about the fascinating history of New Orleans, ranging from its pre-colonial roots all the way through its contributions to 20th century culture, from music to architecture. Highly recommended to anyone interested in a tour that takes them off the beaten path!

People of Color Tour a plus - There is a lot of walking but very interesting walk. Be prepared that this your comes rain or shine, hot or cold. It was freezing on our tour with very little sunshine. Mr Milton was our guide and was extremely knowledgeable on NOLA history and culture. There was nearby construction so at times it was hard to hear him. There are no bathroom facilities in the park so be prepared to run across the street if you need to go.
