Fun Haunted History - Loved hearing Coty's knowledge of NOLA's history! Sadly, no ghosts were seen but maybe that's because it was during the day? 🤷‍♀️😅

Walking the Streets of New Orleans - Our walk was one on one with a native who grew up in New Orleans riding his bike on the streets. He was very knowledgeable, polite, and respectful. Since it was just my husband and I we enjoyed a leisurely stroll through the streets with Coty as he told us the history of the French Quarter.

New Orleans French Quarter Best Activity - Great experience I feel like I’ve lived in nola my entire life. This is a wonderful tour that provides historical info but also a little bit of everything and our guide was amazing I loved having a knowledgeable local guide with a sense of humor. I booked the tour bc my friends insisted that we attend a tour with this company. The said Ashli -who’s the owner and who also created the New Orleans Drunk History Tour which is awesome one of the best tours in my opinion is the sweetest and will go out of her way to ensure we have fun (my friends were on point) Ashli made sure we had the best time while we were here. She helped me plan the trip which wasn’t here Job or responsibility but I could see she did it because she enjoys it. She is AWESOME. The tour guides we had (we went on multiple tours with her company) were all exceptional and the tours are top notch. I always try to support small businesses and this is a small business that deserves recognition! Keep up the amazing work! Each of you are doing an excellent job and it is appreciated. I went on a couple other tours that are operated by other tour companies and I was very disappointed we were completely disgusted by “Ghost Riders” who I thought was Ashli’s company because they use her company name as their website address they were disrespectful and get this they charge money to reschedule a tour!!! They no showed ME & my husband and then wanted to charge ME!!! To reschedule the tour that’s what I call scammers! Book this tour and if you want to go on additional tours I’m sure ashli will help you book from the variety they offer so you do not hear the same stories on tours. Enjoy your tour with Ashli and her crew like we did! Book now!
