My wife and I wanted to take a tour of New Orleans and we wanted something different to help remember our trip by. Our guide Chris has an easy going and comfortable vibe and informative, the knowledge he possesses with regards to NOLA is superb and through.
This tour is Awesome! Segways are soooo easy to learn and soooo much fun to ride. I'm 70, and I had no trouble at all. The training session in their shop before starting the tour is all you need, and you you'll be good to go. This segway tour is the absolute best way to *see* and learn about the French Quarter. Our guide was super-nice and super-informative. You should try it! I promise you'll love it!
We enjoyed a very informative tour with Jack. His family has a long history in New Orleans and we were pleased to hear about it .
Amazing. Lucky enough that we had a personal guide!
