The Experience

What your day looks like

Down here we’re passionate about eating, so along with your guide you will visit up to 5 locations: classic Creole restaurants, neighborhood sandwich shops, hot sauce bars, artisanal candy stores and more. Once inside you’ll sample different foods that represent the breadth and diversity of our culinary heritage: dishes like gumbo, muffulettas, poboys, pralines, bread pudding and much more. We cover New Orleans’ pre-Colonial and Colonial culinary contributions, we delve into the significant influences of the 19th century immigrants to the region, we recommend places to eat and places to shop. We take you on a foodie journey through one of America's most vibrant neighborhoods: the French Quarter. And with so many dining options in New Orleans, why not try 5 different places in one fell swoop?! The 3-hour walking tour is conducted at a leisurely pace. Most of the restaurant stops feature fully stocked bars if you’d like to enjoy a cold beverage (adult or otherwise!) during the tour.

Beth was really great and knowledgeable about New Orleans. I went with my boyfriend and we thoroughly enjoyed our tour. We actually met some new friends on our trip. The food was delish and as a person with a shellfish allergy in NOLA I was accommodated with no concerns. Overall everything was great, educational and delicious, would recommend!

Clients enjoyed their four tour of the French Quarter. Pepper Palace is always a hit. Their tour guide gave them a lot of great information and it exceeded their expectations.
