| My husband and I went on this tour looking for history of the restaurants and get some good suggestions for food to eat while we were in town. Our guide did not seem to know much if not anything about each restaurant, except Antoines. We felt extremely rushed, as our guide was practically running out the door of each place. On top of that, we would ask our guide questions about various things and if she did not know the answer she would simply ignore us. The tour did take us to a few great places, but I would not recommend. Perhaps if we had a different tour guide our experience would have been much greater. Oh, and if you have never been to a particular restaurant, don't suggest it and say how great it is. | ||||||

| We live near New Orleans and visit frequently and always take out of town guests there. Despite having eaten at a variety of New Orleans restaurants, this tour hit several that were new to us. Overall, it was a nice way to see the eateries and to sample bites from the menus. Was it worth the price? Yes...but it comes close to being overpriced. | ||||||

Time well spent

| Our tour guide, Sally, was extremely engaging and well versed on the history of the various restaurants. The choice of restaurants gave our out of town guests a nice overview of New Orleans architecture and cuisine. One suggestion might be to ask a chef to discuss some of the food or give a bit more information on the preparation or history of the food itself. To that end, learning about the roux at Creole delicacies was a highlight for several of us "foodies" on the tour. In summary, this is a worthwhile way to entertain out of town guests and, as a local, learn a bit more about your city through cuisine. Also, please note that for those with greater NOLA appetite, the portions are small, with the exception of the beef brisquet served at Tujagues. Expect that you may be hungry soon after the tour. | ||||||

| The tour was very informative and there was a lot of food. Our guide was cheerful, knowledgable and lovely. We were able to taste so many local specialties. Much of the time we were in nicely air-conditioned restaurants. Very glad we did the tour! | ||||||

| Four of us had a wonderful time on our culinary tour. Turns out we were the only four on that particular day, which made it very personal. Our guide was very friendly, funny, but quite informative. She spun her stories in a fashion that kept your attention. We learned a lot about the history of various cuisines New Orleans is famous for, and amazed about the age and history of some of the famous restaurants we visited. The food was quite tasty and delicious, but remember it is a tasting tour. If you are looking for a meal, this is not for you. The portions were adequate to enjoy the flavor and taste of the various cuisines offered by the establishments. You will not go away hungry, but you will not be full either. All in all we had a great time. No one in our foursome had anything negative to say about our experience. The staff at all of our destinations were friendly and accommodating, which added to the enjoyment. Wear comfortable shoes as you will be walking around the French Quarter. We thoroughly enjoyed our culinary tour, and have no problem recommending it. | ||||||

| A real taste of NOLA - pun intended! You don't have to be all about food to enjoy this tour. Lots of fascinating historic info. You also get to see some great art on the tour. The food is great. The stories about the food you get to try are really stories of people and the place. Our guide (George) was very informed and a great storyteller. We'd do it again. | ||||||

| I took a group of guys down to NOLA for a Bachelor Party and was looking to do something a little bit more cultured while we were all there. The tour was great. Renee was our guide and she was very knowledgeable about the city, the history, the restaurants and the cuisine. We visited many restaurants and tasted different food items at each. Do this tour early in your trip and you will find a great number of places to go, while you are there. ALL in ALL great tour highly recommend. | ||||||

informative, but lacking in presentation of food

| We really enjoyed the facility tours and the historical information provide by our guide, George. However, I think for the price of the ticket, the food sample presentation and settings shoud be sit down at a table and served in something other than a paper plate/bowl. The type of surroundings were not casual and relaxed when the foods were given. Therefore it made you think twice about ordering an additional drink or something. | ||||||

| My granddaughter and I had a wonderful time on the Culinary History Tour of NOLA. We enjoyed the information, the style in which it was delivered and the delicious tasty food treats along the way. We both learned interesting facts about food and restaurants in NOLA and also visited the several culinary establishments on the tour in a quite unusual way. Altogether an outstanding tour. | ||||||

| If you are interested in local history, restaurants or food don't miss this tour! Our guide was excellent! We toured many local restaurants and had tastings at many of them. It was great to try different food and compare them to places we had been and places we would go and to hear all about the local area. I found the tour trolling the Internet and so happy I did. This was one of the highlights of our visit to New Orleans and I would definately recommend this to anyone that visits New Orleans has is intersted in food, history or restaurants. This tour is not to be missed! | ||||||
