Brian was our bus driver for Crescent City Tours!!!!!! I cannot say enough wonderful things about him!!! He was the absolute BEST!!! He was full of history and even pointed out areas along the way used as filming locations for major movies. Our 2 tours were great but he made the experience the BEST! He is funny too!

Fantastic tours and driver was great. It was about 1.5 hours to get out to the plantation but ride was smooth. Would highly recommend this company and tours to all travelling to New Orleans!

The Oak Alley/Swamp Tour is a must see! Oak Alley was both sad and beautiful at the same time and the swamp tour was a blast. Our swamp guide was knowledgeable and we saw a ton of animals even though we were warned that we may not see much due to the time of year. Prepare to laugh with Brian (your driver) all day, he made the day so fun and knows everything in the area!! I will definitely be back to do this tour in the future!
