We did this tour a couple of days ago and really enjoyed it, the guide is excellent and really knowledgable, and you get to see hidden houses and courtyards which is probably the best part. We'd already been on the Laura plantation tour, which is also amazing, but I wouldn't say you need to do that first to get lots... More

Very interesting tour! We took this tour as a kind of an introduction to the city the first morning of our trip. I intended to book a tour about the history of the city, but wound up going with this one instead and was very happy I did. The tour is focused on Laura Locoul, a Creole woman and plantation... More

This is the second time we've been to New Orleans and I wanted to take a more historical tour. If you enjoy history (of this Country and New Orleans) you will not be disappointed. We went on a Thursday and our group was rather small. Our guide Bill Coble was very knowledgeable and an excellent story teller. If you plan... More

Great walking tour of French Quarter. Our guide, Bill, was a book of info and is clearly passionate about NOLA history. Saw several courtyards and gained access to a number of museum areas that are normally a separate fee. Best yet, the tour was only $22! Amazing value for the amount of information. I did a lot of Trip Advisor... More

We wanted to experience many aspects of the French Quarter, but only wanted to take one tour. This was the perfect solution. Our tour guide Bill Coble was engaging , well informed and and responsive to everyone's particular interests. He put a lot of himself into the tour and his level of knowledge was impressive. I would highly recommend this... More

Both my daughter and I found this highly informative - Bill ties a lot of interesting information to a great storyline. The group was quite large, but it wasn't a problem - because most of the stories are told inside the courtyards, it was easy to hear. Because the group was large (34) it went almost 3 hrs. There is... More

We thought this tour was brilliant. It may be a bit less so if you've not done the Laura Plantation tour (which we think is also excellent), as much revolves around that family. However, that's not all. For us (non-Americans) we learnt so much about the development of the south, slavery, Creole culture, and the history of New Orleans and... More

we enjoyed Bill Coble 's walking tour http://www.mondecreole.com/ of the french quarter . he was very entertaining and knowledgable about cultural history of new orleans, with a story of a creole family that went back generations. the inner courtyards of many homes was interesting and something we might not have seen otherwise. we learned a lot and enjoyed it.

As a Chicagoan who travels to New Orleans quite frequently, I've enjoyed experiencing various tours of the city with different friends and visitors. People who journey to New Orleans often ask me about the city and for recommendations. My first choice for a city tour? Le Monde Creole. Le Monde Creole describes the life and times of the Creole Duparc-... More
