I would highly recommend John's tour to anyone visiting New Orleans! One thing that I think really…read moresets him apart is his storytelling ability. Rather than giving a bullet point list of what happened surrounding a certain ghost sighting, he told a full blown story that allowed you to really imagine the people and culture in which it happened. He also shared about the primary sources he references for his information. A true historian. He set the tone for a friendly and social tour at the beginning, inviting everyone to ensure the one person who came alone would feel included by the group. We had a lovely time making new friends from around the country and experiencing a special part of New Orleans culture, all while having an expert on hand to answer questions and be part of our conversation. Cool cocktails, too. Thanks for what you do, John!

My favorite was Julie and The Roffignac. John answered all our questions and gave us amazing recommendations! There are too many things to do in New Orleans and John helped us zero in on the tops bars and places to visit. We loved Luizza's, their BBQ shrimp was delicious! *Fun fact - BBQ in New Orleans means butter. Communication with John was a breeze, we ran late and was able to meet up with the rest the tour with ease. I highly recommend booking a tour with John! We got to know New Orleans on a deeper level because of this tour! *TIP - book a tour with him on his website instead of Airbnb! Support local business!

Three bikes sitting across the street in front of Harris Casino. I went over and the guys were so nice. I told them I had a walker and wondered if I could put it on the bike. NO PROBLEM. So a couple of hours later the guy was gone but there was a new guy who took us down. OMG the road was so bumpy we thought we were going to fall out. We were laughing and having such a fun time. After our dinner cruise I called for a pickup and a new guy who was so much more talkative and friendly picked us up. The ride was not as bumpy and he drove us up to the hotel. These guys are great! I will use them in the future and recommend them to all that visit.

We went from the French quarter to the Garden district with our driver "Coach"....this is not a short distance by far.

Being a local all his life gave him first hand knowledge on everything along the way which was priceless! He was so informative and interesting and it was worth every penny ! It was a spectacular tour all thanks to Coach! We will be looking him up next time we visit! So should anyone else that visits!

The final pedicab of the night was our grand exit in the "just married" cab, which was truly the perfect ending to the celebration. The drivers were on time, professional, and a delight to work with. They navigated the city effortlessly and made us and our guests feel fully taken care of the entire time. We highly recommend Need A Ride Pedicabs!

We were so excited to come back after an excellent experience last time but there is definite love…read morelost when this place got handed down. Dana (?) spoke about getting ready to start upgrading things around there but I think it's going in the wrong direction. You will lose the charm and experience of staying in a real New Orleans home. You don't need glass showers. You need a bucket of soapy water. Upon arrival, we noticed old ice cream still waiting in the freezer. There were burnt out light bulbs and dried, dead bugs on the microwave. I noticed past reviews stated that they were welcomed to a stocked fridge of milk and orange juice. We didn't even have coffee filters. We had to buy our own coffee, sugar, and milk. There was a cheese grater, but no bottle opener. A lot of drawers were stuffed with plastic grocery bags but we couldn't find any kitchen trash bags in order to empty the overflowing trash cans. There was a cabinet full of paint cans and other maintenance junk which was a turn off. The dog barking at 5/6 in the morning right outside our room was a real bummer. We enjoyed the clean towels but the place was overall dirty. We loved having the croissants delivered to us in the morning. They were delicious! You can't beat the location. A few blocks from Bourbon, straight shot to Cafe du Monde, and Armstrong Park right outside the window. With the rise of AirBNB, now is not the time to let things slack. You aren't just in competition with the hotels anymore. You have an amazing property and it was so sad to see the condition of it after only a few years. Appreciate what you have and fix it. Unfortunately, I won't be back to see if that happens.

My wife and I recently booked this location in suggestion from a friend. There's some pluses and…read moreminuses to staying here. The hosts, Dana and Andrew, were very nice and accommodating. The house is located just a few blocks from Bourbon Street, so it's easy to get to and from if that's your thing. Fresh pastries in the morning were nice. As with all things in this section of New Orleans, the house is old and has many quirks. The floor was not level, many years of foundation settling obviously. Know in advance, if you drive in it's not easy to find this location. Also, there's no parking for your vehicle. You will be forced to find street parking, which is in a limited supply, or pay to park in a lot. The house is located fairly close to the corner of St. Ann and Rampart, and being close to Bourbon there is traffic/street noise. Overall, we were happy with our stay, but it was not exactly what we expected.

There were quite a few swamp tours on Groupon. I chose this one because of the reviews and the boat is covered. I purchased the Groupon and then called the number. I left a voice message. Captain James called me back within a couple hours. I told him I had purchased a Groupon. He asked for the voucher code so I provided it to him. He said he had me plus a guest down for the tour. When we arrived to the building (light blue and a bit worn), we saw a man. It turned out to be Captain James. We told him our names and he confirmed we were on his list. While we waited for the others, he told us some stories about himself, which were very interesting and informative. We left at the scheduled time. Thankfully, it was overcast so it wasn't too hot even though it was around 1:30 PM. We saw a gator not even 5 minutes into the tour. Captain James said they love the marshmallows he gives them so they know his schedule better than he does. During the tour, we saw multiple alligators. We also saw birds and Captain James told us about the trees and plants we saw. It was a very fun and interesting tour. With the Groupon, you cannot beat this deal for such a great experience. I highly suggest this swamp tour!
