Reviews: New Orleans City and Cemetery 2-Hour Bus Tour

My wife and I really enjoyed the city tour. Marcus our guide was very knowledgeable and explained many interesting facts about all the places we passed and visited. He made us feel like a family member visiting his hometown!
Reviews: Swamp Boat Ride and Oak Alley Plantation Tour from New Orleans
Guest User2026-01-17
We really enjoyed this tour! Our driver was great and she was able to manuever the bus in some really tough areas making it look easy. The bus was extremely clean. Our tour guide Robert was phenominal. He has a wealth of knowledge about Louisiana history, land and people, not to mention about New Orleans and the plantations in the area and kept us informed the entire trip. We really enjoyed Oak Alley Plantation and the time allotted was perfect. The swamp boat ride was very nice as well and we got to see several gators, which our guide said was surprising because it is the time of year when they are not as active. There were several raccoons and regrets as well. We highly recommend this tour.

Gives a real and raw accounting of what happened during the storm and how things have changed since that time.
Reviews: New Orleans Steamboat Natchez Jazz Cruise

Everything was very smooth. I walked over in ~8 minutes from my Q&C Hotel. I went on a 55 degree January weekday and the boat was nowhere near full which was nice and spacious with plenty of seating. The narration was well done and had some jokes. The band was okay a nice addition. The lunch was very tasty and for $20 extra a great deal in New Orleans. They will provide you 2nds if you ask. I recommend getting first meal because the boat does not leave port for the first 45 minutes which is boring otherwise. 2nd meal you will miss most the scenery. The ride is 45 min down river then turn around and 45 min back up. I enjoyed a Panama Canal boat ride last year more than this, but this is a must-do if in New Orleans for the first time!

Reviews: New Orleans Steamboat Natchez Jazz Cruise with Dinner Option
Guest User2024-06-16
The dinner buffet was so good. I really enjoyed the creole pasta. Perfect sun setting excursion on Mississippi River. I just wish they got us out of the sweltering heat faster and aboard.
