Create unforgettable memories with your loved ones through customized itineraries led by our local guide, and experienced Dad as well.
Overview of the tour
Traveling with your family can sometimes be a challenge. So much to see and do and eat. But there are also different interests, attention spans, appetites and energy levels, which is why it is important to have a plan. We’ll customize an itinerary just for you, that makes sense for you. Whether you choose a guided experience, or self-guided itinerary, we’ll make sure your family gets the best of the city.
Why choose us?
- Small group sizes for personalized attention.
- Everyone wants to go behind the scenes, but we actually do that. Meet the people who make the city tick.
- Commitment to sustainable and responsible tourism practices – we focus on small groups, and because we are mainly walking, make less of an impact on the environment.
- Giving back to New Orleans’ Culture – a portion of each tour goes to the Roots of Music, a program that teaches at risk youth the musical and marching band culture of New Orleans
