Sandy was knowledgeable and presented material in a very interesting way. Highly recommended

Sandy led us on a rich cultural and historical tour of New Orleans we hadn't seen before. She helped us see how the Marigny area was developed by Free People of color, who shared a love of community and music along Frenchmen Street. It was Christmas Day, and many of the venues were closed for the holiday, but she describes a bustling scene full of authentic blues we will want to enjoy on our next trip to New Orleans.

Sandy loves New Orleans. This you can hear in her words. Great Tour.

Sandy is passionate about New Orleans and really knows her stuff.

THE REAL HEARTBEAT OF NEW ORLEAN: LA MAGNIFIQUE If the french quarter is the official portrait if the city, Frenchmen street/ Marigny district is more local ans authentic. Sandy is the guide for this type of expérience (more than a traditional tour)..a real local and well informed, Il strongly recommend...we saw real little music bars, good foods spots, typical housing and architecture and the feeling of the real communities!

Great tour with Sandy. She provided important historical context and answered all of our questions. She clearly loves New Orleans.

Sehr informative und freundliche Tour Guide. Zu empfehlen!

Our guide was fantastic! I would absolutely recommend this tour to anyone. We learned about: art, history, architecture, society, politics, food…so much history and information. Excellent tour.

Sandy is an amazing tour guide. Highly recommend her.

It was our 2nd tour with Sandy (we had done the French Quarter tour earlier in the week) and we were as pleased with this tour as with the other one. She provided very interesting facts and stories about the history of New Orleans and specifically to this neighborhood Faubourg Marigny. It was very instructive and entertaining as well. I highly recommend any tour with Sandy.

Fabulous insight into the local neighbourhood. Perfect length of tour with lots of information on where to visit.

Thank you Sandy for your interesting tour and knowledge shared!

Sandy gave us a marvelous tour of the Marigny district - one of the absolute highlights of our time in New Orleans. She went above and beyond in every way: incredibly flexible, perfectly adapting to the needs and pace of our group, and always thoughtful - whether it was making sure we were in the shade on a hot day or tailoring her insights to our interests. Her depth of knowledge is truly remarkable. From local folklore and music to art, architecture, and history, Sandy brought every corner of the neighborhood to life with vivid detail and enthusiasm. She has a gift for storytelling and a passion for New Orleans that’s both engaging and inspiring. We can’t recommend her highly enough!
