Tim is a true one-of-a-kind character, and I mean that in the best possible way! His knowledge is broad and his energy and passion for New Orleans and history in general is infectious. He knows all the spots and stories. If you only do do one thing on your visit to New Orleans, make it this tour. We had such a good time.
