This tour is the one thing you MUST do when you visit NOLA. Jay was incredible and has such a rich history with the city and a breadth of knowledge that blew us away. His personal point of view, academic background, and pacing of the tour were exemplary. Best tour we've ever been on! Do this as soon as you can when you arrive to the city; the features and history he points out will contextualize the rest of your trip.

Hearing authentic local history directly from those born and raised in a place is always my favorite part of traveling, and this tour with Jeremy completely delivered on that. I highly recommend it! Be sure to book it near the beginning of your trip so you can make full use of all the great recommendations the host provides.
