Overview
Get a taste for the real New Orleans on this tour of the French Quarter!
If you think you know New Orleans, this tour might change your mind. Step into the French Quarter for an adults-only walk through the city’s more mischievous past, where the stories are a little wilder, the characters a little bolder and the nights rarely ended early.
As you wander through the Quarter, your guide will share tales of romance, rivalry and late-night antics that helped shape the city’s reputation. Expect surprising details, colorful personalities and a whole lot of scandal. It’s a relaxed, entertaining way to see a different side of New Orleans, one that doesn’t always make it into the history books!

Disappointed
Natalie ·Not raunchy, hardly any walking it’s not as expected
Definitely not as described or expected
RonnieandCarole ·So, to start with, Yvette, our tour guide was late showing up. Once in to the tour, it did contain some bits of raunchiness, but focus was hard to maintain due to the constant snorting. I felt like a LOT of the snorting was exaggerated simply because someone else found the snorting funny in an earlier review. I assure you, in a two hour tour, the snorting ceases to be funny after 15 minutes. We did enjoy some of the tales as well as the bar stop for cold drinks about midway through the tour. Yvette was nice. I just feel the tour needs to be revamped or refreshed somehow. The stories told were more historical and less raunch. New Orleans, with its storied history certainly has to have better tales for the tour.
Awesome tour!!!
LuLu ·The tour was the most fun of the four tours we took. Yvette did an awesome job!!! We loved her snort!
Ok if you're interested in history
Colin ·Interesting trip around the seamier side of the French quarter but not quite as entertaining or raunchy as we thought it would be but it showed a different side to the history of New Orleans
Do this
Michele 5/7 ·Come on adults… there’s going to be cussing and you’re going to LOVE it. She was so interesting and fun. If you’re a wet rag don’t do this but if you’re here for lighthearted, educational, fun that includes cussing? Make sure you sign up!
Great time.
Jenni ·It was a fun little history tour. Lots of laughs.
