My husband and I along with another couple went on the cocktail tour with Joe on Friday, November 20th. We had such a great time! Joe is so friendly and knowledgeable and provided us with so much interesting history about New Orleans. We went to 5 different bars/restaurants and each one was unique and all had a story to go... more

I was in New Orleans for a night and not familiar with the city. I read about this tour on tripavisor and booked it last minute. I'm so glad I did. I learned some history, tried new drinks and had a great time. I was surprised (and a little apprehensive) to find the tour guides were senior citizens. Guess what?... more

I've been on many tours around the world and this was one of the tops! I can't speak for the other tour guides - but I can't imagine a better guide than Joe. You will not only have some tasty drinks (I have never had such great mixed drinks in my life), but you will learn a lot about New... more

I went back and forth on booking this tour for myself and my fiance, and finally did book a couple days before our trip. We went on a Wednesday, our first night in New Orleans. Joe is such a knowledgeable guide. He actually knows what he is talking about, no script to follow. We learned so much about the history... more

I took the tour on a Wednesday night. The tour guide Joe did a fantastic job--he brought us to unique locations, recommended fun drinks, and really told a story of the French Quarter you won't hear anywhere else. I was traveling alone, and it was a great way to meet other fun people. Highly recommended. more

A blast

I took this tour on my own (female travelling without hubby) and had a great time. Met a bunch of fun people with whom I spent the evening during and after the tour. Joe was a great tour guide and the history of cocktails and bars in NOLA was fascinating. Also discovered a couple new drinks to add to my... more

Ok I was skeptical signing up for this tour. I wondered how this could honestly be the best thing happening in New Orleans....but after doing it, I have no reservations. I can sum up this review by just saying "Joe". You will love this guide. He is great and from beginning to end you will never be disappointed during this... more

My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed the cocktail tour given by Joe. He really made the tour so interesting and fun. The insight given to us about the many hotels and bars and drinks was helpful in enfolding ourselves in the history and flavor of the Quarter. Joe, if you're reading this, we went to the Hotel Monteleone to the... more

We took this tour on Sunday Sept 27....the night before we had taken a Haunted History Tour that aside from a couple of good stories and the chance to see Nichola Cage come out on his balcony was basically a snooze fest. So we had already booked this tour for the next day and were a bit apprehensive. Joe was... more
