Tour description

If you know anything about New Orleans, you've probably heard of the French Quarter, but do you know about Treme? 

Did you know that the Treme, a neighborhood adjacent to the French Quarter, is the source of much of New Orleans' famous cultural heritage?

This one, small part of the city is home to several museums, a world renowned park, historic churches, and homes that whisper the stories of a time gone by. Join me for a stroll through Treme, ending in Congo Square.

History, begging to be known, resides just beneath the surface of almost everything in New Orleans. You just have to know where to look.

I'd love to show you. Let's go!

Tamara isn’t a typical tour guide—she’s a storyteller, a singer, and a soulful companion. When you step into Treme, you’re not just exploring a neighborhood; you’re diving into its heartbeat.

An intense and captivating walk through history with Tamara. We enjoyed a long walk stopping to some major points of Treme to understand how and why New orleans is what is it today. I enjoyed it ! :)

Tamara started with a song. It made it personal. She talked about history of the neighborhood we walked through and had a lot of information about the things we passed.
