Marvelous - Bob was an amazing guide! Just a stellar dude with so much knowledge. I ended up getting a private tour (but they cap the group size at 14 anyways so have smaller group experience). Garden district is just lovely, loaded with lots of history and gorgeous architecture! Wasn’t expecting this tour to be my favorite of the city, but I think it takes the cake!
