What a great experience, Lofton was our guide and he was amazing. A Louisiana local knew the area the history and took a short break to have a hurricane. Most definitely recommend the private tour.

Great driver/ guide, interesting historical tour. The tour operator had no organization on the front end, no one in charge, wandered until we found someone to take us.

Tour guide was friendly and knowledgeable. It was a nice stroll through certain parts of the French Quarter, providing context to the rich history of New Orleans. I recommend the hour tour, because the 1/2 hour was too short.
