We had the great pleasure of having Randy guide us on our first day in New Orleans. From the onset of the tour Randy displayed a comprehensive knowledge of the French Quarter's rich history. He was extremely knowledgable and you could see that he had spent decades thoroughly researching the history behind each stop on the tour. We learned about New Orleans' Creole heritage and how the Mississippi River has had strategic/economic value to the city, among many other fascinating facts and stories. Randy was also clear to point out the myths and misinformation that had spread about New Orleans. He prided himself on offering a vivid, historically accurate tour based on facts and research, not conjecture. I have never had a tour guide as intelligent, witty, and charasmatic as Randy. He is a brilliant historian whose passion for New Orleans is unmistakable. There is simply no better tour guide than Randy.
