Just finished the French Quarter Walking Tour - it was AMAZING!

I recently went on the self-guided walking tour in New Orleans, and wow, it was such a highlight of my trip! I loved stopping by Cafe du Monde for those beignets — can’t believe how good they were. The audio tour was super easy to use and really brought the history to life. I particularly enjoyed the creepy stories about LaLaurie Mansion. Definitely recommend it for anyone visiting NOLA!

Thinking about gifting the walking tour - any thoughts?

I’m considering this self-guided walking tour for my sister’s birthday. She’s been wanting to visit New Orleans for ages, and this seems like a fun way to explore. I love that it’s flexible too. Has anyone done it? What did you think?
