PRIVATE MUSIC OF NEW ORLEANS: LISTEN AND LEARN!


Walk with us or Dance if you are so inclined!

Everything from Armstrong to Zydeco! Come listen and walk (or maybe dance if you are so inclined) your way through one of the oldest and most musical neighborhoods of New Orleans. Learn why they say, “All Music (at least American Music) is born in New Orleans!

Undisputedly the birthplace of Jazz, and willing to argue with Memphis till we're blue in the face over who is the birthplace of Rock and Roll, New Orleans is most certainly one of the great musical gems of the world. As you walk from location to location LISTEN as your tour guide plays you some of the best and most historically important music of our great city. Once you get to a location LEARN about what you just heard as your tour guide places it and its performers into the greater musical and historical context of both our fair city and the United States as a whole.


THE MUSICAL LEGENDS OF NEW ORLEANS

Learn about the great musical legends of New Orleans then and now: from Jelly Roll Morton, to Mahalia Jackson, to Fats Domino, to Trombone Shorty, and the Marsalis family. Gain a greater understanding of the different musical genres that make this city and nation great: from the music of slavery, to traditional jazz, to the industrial rock of the 1990’s!

If that isn’t enough enjoy your walk through one of, if not the oldest, African American neighborhoods in the United States - the Treme, made famous after Katrina by the television series of the same name. You will learn some of the history of this incredible neighborhood and the role it has played in New Orleans for almost 300 years. As one of the most beautiful, historic, and important neighborhoods in the history of the United States, Treme is the birthplace of many famous musicians and a great center of culture and life in our city, so this is almost like getting two tours in one!

WORTH THE TRIP TO NEW ORLEANS BY ITSELF!

My partner and I went on the French Quarter ghost and vampire tour on our fight night in New Orleans. Despite being pretty tired after a long series of flights from the West Coast, our tour guide Justin kept our attention with a combination of ghost stories mixed with the history of the local area. Overall a great start to the trip and an amusing telling of the history of the French Quarter. Would recommend.”

LUKE IS GREAT!

If you are lucky enough to get madman luke... Then you are in for a treat. Luke is funny, an avid historian, a LOCAL, and a self-admitted skeptic. He will knock your (proverbial) socks off with his eerie gift for story-telling. He will convince you that your 8pm french quarter ghost tour was time well spent. Skip the dressed up fools. Luke is the real deal.

CHARM, PROFESSIONALISM, KNOWLEDGE & FUN!

Robert was our tour guide, & he did an excellent job of giving us the history of New Orleans, especially of the brothels & bars. We had about a 2 hour walking tour that included a couple of breaks, and got such interesting info about the people & places here. This is my 3rd or 4th visit here, but 1st time on a tour. I definitely recommend it & will try the Cemetery Tour next visit.

IT WAS AMAZING AND VERY INFORMATIVE!

Jeremiah our guide took us on a ghost and vampire tour through the French Quarter last night!!! It was amazing and very informative! His knowledge of each site was incredible and he answered any and all questions he made the stops very gripping with this story telling! The highlight was the LaLaurie mansion the most haunted place in New Orleans and former home of Nicolas Cage! After the tour Jeremiah chatted with me and my wife and told us more and showed us the filming location of American Horror Story "Coven" which was next door to the LaLaurie mansion!!! We highly recommend this experience!!!!”

ENJOYED IT SO MUCH WE BOOKED ANOTHER TOUR!

Our guide, Thomas Webb, was very friendly, knowledgeable and funny! We enjoyed an excellent walk through the French Quarter and learned lots of great info! We enjoyed our tour so much that we booked a tour to go see the cemetery, something we hadn't planned on doing but we had such a good time we decided to go for it! And you can't beat the price! Best in the city!

GREAT TOUR!

Our tour guide was Justin. He was amazingly knowledgeable about so much of Tremé's history. Our tour took about 2 hours in which we learned about New Orleans Jazz, Tremé's history through current and touched on some knowledge about the city of New Orleans. All in all it was an amazing experience that I definitely recommend. We took the tour at 10am on Saturday and it was top notch!

BEST WALKING TOUR EVER!

People, if you think you would rather just check this neighborhood out on your own, please reconsider and do this guided walking tour! Erin was not only a wealth of info, she wasted no time, kept it funny and interesting, included cool stories about the celebrities, athletes, architects and builders, and took perfect care of the small group. Highly recommended and SO cheap which was a bonus!!!
