“The guide was fine however this was billed as a “Food Tour” …”Eat your way through New Orleans”. That it was not. We stopped 4 times in 3 hours and the foods. No seafood options. Beef Po Boy? We were constantly stopped in front of places and told “we are not going to eat here but you can come back and get a 10% discount with your wristband”. Recommend you find another provider or go out on your own. A lot of walking with a very poor food sampling experience.”
