We learned very much on this tour. It was fascinating to SEE where history happened. It made what I had learned in school years ago so much more personal. Our tour guide Rene took the time to give us extra information and tips about what else to look for that was not in the official tour at the two sites.

Both plantations were very interesting. Houmas House and its gardens are gorgeous. The lunch was wonderful. Giselle was a wonderful guide and I loved her French accent. It was such a fun day.

Our tour with Stephen was excellent. He really knows not only the places we visited but NOLA overall. Myself, my 22 daughter and 9 year old granddaughter all enjoyed our private tour.

Gisèle our guide was great. She took the time to explain to us and give the details for each planting. We visited 4 of them. Very good atmosphere with the visitors in the small bus. I highly recommend your organization. For us our contact with you was our friend Florence Snow who had chosen you. She did very well

Steve did A great job guiding our tour. He is very knowledgeable and provided a lot of insight into Louisiana history, especially about the Nola area. The bus was comfortable and the places we stopped were great. Good food at the last stop.

Stephen was a wealth of information on the way to and from the plantations as well adding little gems the tour guides at the plantations didn't cover. It was especially fun when the subject turned to food (he was in the food industry in his past!) We appreciated the great communication we got from Isabelle with our pickup time and being picked up and dropped off at our hotel. Thank you!

We had a great day with our French guide Gisèle. We learned a lot about plantations, but also about Louisiana.
