I was in New Orleans only for a limited time and decided I was going only on one organised tour. So glad to have chosen this one because Jonathan was knowledgeable as well as entertaining. Thoroughly recommend this to anyone whether travelling solo, as a couple or a group. Value for money.

I have been to NOLA many times over the years. I learned so many new things on this tour about the city. I thought that Jonathon was a very friendly and interesting tour guide. He was very patient and answered all of our questions. His film clip collection is perfectly coordinated with the area that he is driving. I don't know how he made it all so seamless. I will take his tour again and bring my partner along next time. This is a good tour for men and women. Jonathon was also very well organized and made the tour extra special for everyone on board.

The couple who narrated the tour, Jonathan and Michelle Ray, really made the tour interesting. They took turns talking and really complemented each other with their knowledge of the movies made in New Orleans. They invited questions from the 7 people on my tour and we had some great conversations. It was a relaxed and fun atmosphere. I would definitely recommend this tour.

The one tour of NOLA you should not miss!

This was the most enjoyable tour I participated in during my recent trip to NOLA. The guides conducting the movie tour are incredibly knowledgeable and they really made the tour a wonderful experience. I was on the tour by myself and they made me feel very welcome and during the tour itself you really feel like you are a part of each movie that they feature. The mid-tour popcorn snack was a really nice touch and the overall atmosphere of the tour was very unique. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting NOLA for the first time and even locals who aren't familiar with all of the movies that have been either set in or filmed in NOLA. Such a great time!

Awesome tour! Gave us background info on movies that were shot in New Orleans, played video clips and took us directly to where the scenes were shot. Can't ask for more. Our guide has work as an extra on several movies, so he had lots of inside info to share. This couple worked in tandem almost flawlessly guiding us through the city and pointing out lots of city facts and movie trivia. Glad we decided to take this tour. If you are a movie buff, this tour is a must! - Norma (TX)

I was in NO with a friend of mine while she was at a conference. I wanted to find something to do that would be interesting and did not involve a lot of walking through the French Quarter in July. (Did that last year - way too hot!) I learned so much about New Orleans' history as well as movies. We visited famous graveyards as well as the Garden District. It was very interesting .. not to mention the van was air conditioned - and the couple knew a lot about the history of NO that you would normally not get on a tour. The final positive - I have a new movie list that is really long of things I haven't seen that looked wonderful! It is one of the best tours I have taken in NO and I have taken several!

I heard about this movie tour from TripAdvisor when I was researching different tours available in New Orleans. I was looking for something unique and fun...and found just that! The hosts blended history along with movie tibbits, so you got a great, overall picture of the areas the van visited. Especially appreciated the Garden District stop, and seeing celebrities' homes. I could tell a lot of thought, research and detail went into creating and orchestrating this tour, and was very impressed with not only their passion but also their fun use of knowledge. Made a 1st-time NOLA tourist like me enjoy my stay very much! The price is worth it; especially if you enjoy movies, you will NOT be disappointed! Actually I didn't know or hadn't seen more than half the movies on their list so I learned a few things there and still very much enjoyed the clips and seeing where it was actually filmed. The hosts are full of life and cheer, and it felt like we were all out on a bus ride with (knowledgable) friends.
