Trace New Orleans jazz from Congo Square to Frenchmen Street with a local guide, live music, one drink, and a small group.

“Kristi is a Hall of Fame tour guide. She was extremely knowledgeable as well as entertaining. She was flexible and built the tour around the group of six requests. We visited two clubs, one in the French Quarter and one on Frenchman Street. Before and after the visits she was a wealth of information. She gave much context to the jazz music of New Orleans. I cannot imagine a better tour guide.”
