Great way to start your NOLA trip.

Published on Jan, 2025

The tour was informative and entertaining. It was very evident that our tour guide was passionate about NOLA history and Jazz in particular.

New Orleans Jazz et al

Published on Dec, 2024

This is a must for anyone who enjoys life (never mind Jazz). At the same time as discovering the significant sites in Jazz/New Orleans this tour will join the dots between them and many contemporary issues. You will come away better informed and feeling that you have had real experience of the city. Thanks Harris it was great.

All that jazz !!

Published on Nov, 2024

This tour and our guide, HARRIS PARSON, were amazing. Harris projected his knowledge and enthusiasm to make a magical evening, culminating in some great jazz. He gave a captivating account of the history of New Orleans jazz in it's social context, making it an event not to be missed by any trad jazz enthusiast visiting New Orleans. Many thanks Harris and NOLA.

Best tour you can do in NOLA

Published on Oct, 2024

I loved the tour! Our guide Harris Parson is incredibly knowledgeable and has great energy. It was a different experience, during the tour he would play the songs he mentioned, and at the end, you would receive all the information. It was not only a music tour, I learned a lot from the city’s history and culture, which made it more interesting. I’m definitely doing it again!

Great tour for music, culture, and history lovers
