| Traveling to New Orleans with my husband, brother and sister n' law. We all enjoyed the tour and the history of the restaurants and food. I would recommend this tour to anyone that tells me they are going to New Orleans.
Renee was our tour guide and she was fun and very knowlegable. The samples were portioned just right and several to taste.
Definately sign up for this. You will not be sorry.

| This is the tour for you if you are interested in NOLA's rich history of restaurants and food. Very informative and the samples of food were suprisingly good. |

| What a great experience. We got to learn a little history of New Orleans and enjoy some great food. Don't eat lunch before you go...maybe a late breakfast. |

| It was so nice trying different items we might not have tried.
Found some things I really liked. Went back and visited one
of the restaurants for lunch that we probably wouldn't have
gone to otherwise. The history about the restaurants and the
city was really fun. Did try a drink at one of the restaurants
that I won't try again. Tour guide was very educated and
great to listen to. |

| Fun experience. Our guide was extremely knowledgable and there was a good variety of foods to experience (gumbo, pralines, brisket, etc.) . Also gave helpful insight into possible restaurant choices for later meals. Highly recommended! |

| This was a great way for us to spend a few hours in the French Quarter. We loved walking around and stopping at the different restaurants - and tasting the food! We learned about the history of New Orleans along the way... It was a very interesting and tasty tour! |

| My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed this tour! The “history” part of the tour was very relevant and interesting, even if you are not a gourmet chef. I would recommend the tour early on in your trip, so that you will know all the things to try during the rest of your trip to NOLA. Be sure to wear walking shoes and come hungry! Also grab a drink to carry with you, since the tour is about three hours. There is a stop at one of the locations to buy a drink and also use the restroom. |

| Trey was the guide and he knew so much about the history of the city. He told it in a very interesting way and then linked the food to what was happening with the city's development. Very fun to see Antoines and the other cafes along the way. I was very happy to be on the tour. Walking was very manageable. |

| This was an excellent tour if you're interested in the behind the scenes history of New Orleans. Favorite stops were Antoine's and it's many dining rooms, the Herman-Grima House, and The New Orleans School of Cooking (yummy red beans and rice). Our guide, whose name escapes me at the moment, but I think was Joe--was great. He really knew his history, and had a fun sense of humor. I do recommend bringing a bottle of water--only one drink on the 3 hour tour, and wear comfortable shoes. We ended up revisting many stops on our tour over the course of our vacation. If you love history, if you love food--take this tour! |

| My husband and I and our 15 year old son had a great time on our culinary history tour of the French Quarter. We learned many interesting facts surronding the French Quarter and New Orleans. The food tastings were great as was the tour of Antoines Restaurant, where we learned alot about Mardi Gras and the Mardi Gras Krews and Queens. I would highly recomend taking this tour at the beginning of your stay in New Orleans. |
