Great Views, Quality Photos, and a Wealth of Knowledge. - Quay, was a wonder tour guide! Very informative got to see some many wonderful gems in the beautiful city of New Orleans. Definitely got our money’s worth while staying cool in the NOLA heat. He also took some beautiful professional photos of us at some of the stops that we went to. 10/10 would recommend and would love to see and do any of the other tours he offers . Definitely one of the best parts of my trip to this city!

A great day in New Orleans! - Quay was fantastic! So personable and knowledgeable, and willing to adapt the tour to our needs and interests. We had some time to kill before catching a late flight, and this was the perfect way to see some New Orleans highlights and learn some fascinating history. HIGHLY recommend!

A deep dive I New Orleans culture with the touch of a local - Our tour with Quay was awesome. He knows a lot and took the extra mile. An experience you won’t get with the big tourist tours. It was personal and genuine.

This Particular Tour is a Must Do! - This was an awesome tour, so much history, entertainment, and culture. Definitely try to do this on your first day. The company and guide are professional and accommodation. I highly recommend. With other tours I read about it didn't seem like they allowed for many stops to get out of the vehicle and that's why I chose this 1.

Incredible New Orleans Tour with Quay! - Quay & his tour were both absolutely amazing! Despite having been to New Orleans several times, we saw so many new sites, learned so much New Orleans history, and heard so many great stories about local citizens past and present, it was hard to believe Quay packed it all in. Yet we never felt rushed. One of our group has difficulty walking, and had a portable scooter he brought along. Quay was so kind and helpful with our friend, assisting him in and out of the van, getting the scooter out & set up, then collapsed and stowed. We couldn't have picked a better way to spend our one free day in New Orleans than with Quay! Thank you, Quay!
