The Experience
What your day looks like
This French Quarter walking tour explores the parallels between our resilient and vibrant city with the tasty, storied cocktails that (refreshingly!) reflect her. Get an insider’s look at some of the best French Quarter bars, each with their own story to tell. Imbibe in notable New Orleans cocktails while your guide reveals the historical events that are reflected in each, thoughtfully-chosen ingredient. Plus, in our tiny group, ask questions! Looking for award-winning bartenders? Love a good dive bar? You’ll get recommendations specifically based on your taste and preferred vibe, many of which only a local would know. What This Is Not: - A drunken pub crawl - Drinks are not included and are optional - A cattle-call of tourists – your tour will only have 8 people or less! - A Bourbon Street Tour - For guests under 21 Drinks are not included with the tour price, and no guest is obligated to buy drinks at any stop. We also encourage sharing! Please note that no food is available during the tour.

Detailed Itinerary
The journey, in full
Every tour is different, since we can cater to our small groups! But you can be sure that your guide will lead you to at least 3 different venues for some wonderful cocktail history and imbibing (if you choose). Venues will include a mix of lesser-known favorite gems frequented by locals, finer dining restaurants, and gorgeous courtyard spots. Interesting history and New Orleans fun facts will be inserted throughout, and drinks can be carried to go, so take time to enjoy those delicious cocktails while you sightsee with your guide to the next stop!
