    These music-focused pub crawl tours have developed a loyal following thanks to passionate guides who clearly love New Orleans. Reviewers consistently rave about guides like Pandi, Andre, Christie, and Quay, who bring deep knowledge of local history and music while keeping things lively and fun. Several guides are musicians themselves and occasionally jump on stage to perform, which adds an authentic touch travelers remember. The tours hit multiple venues on Frenchmen Street with generous drink pours, VIP seating at some spots, and exposure to diverse local talent. The experience feels social and engaging, with guides who follow up with photos and recommendations. People mention learning genuine history while meeting fellow travelers and discovering the live music scene. A couple reviews note last-minute cancellations and communication issues that left customers frustrated, so it's worth being aware that operational hiccups can happen. Overall though, the overwhelming majority had a blast and would absolutely do it again, with many calling out these tours as a perfect introduction to the city's music culture.

    We have done tour before and returned to do again because it is so much fun. Drink pours are heavy on Fremont Street and the music flows. It is great to hear the bands outside clubs also. The stops change and the guide loves what he does!
