Exceptional Guide/ Uitzonderlijke Gids

Reviewed March 10, 2018

Randy is een echte fantastisch gid. Hij weet geschiedenis van New Orleans en ook Amerika.  Hij is ook grappig!  Ik raad Randy ten zeerste aan voor een rondleiding door New Orleans!

We had a cemetery tour with Randy.  Aside from the idiot in our group from California who thought he knew more than everyone (which Randy handled very well and put the gentleman in his place very professionally) it was a fantastic tour!  Not only does Randy know the history of the cemetery, he is quite knowledgeable on the history of New Orleans, Louisiana, and quite frankly anywhere (including the Netherlands).  He presents the history like a story, and not like reading from a monologue.  Also, he is not afraid to make fun of everyone (including himself).  So if you are a sensitive snowflake, do not take his tour.  We had an amazing time and will definitely request Randy if we return to New Orleans anytime soon.

LOL - This is a fun review, Mark; thanks for taking the time to write it. But let me just say to those people who *are* sensitive snowflakes - my tour is not necessarily a free-for-all. I have a knack for being able to read a group and my sense of humor tends to respond when I find kindred More

spirits. One can kind of tell when that sort of humor is appropriate and when it's not but when it is - WATCH OUT! (Wicked Grin) And believe me, I can take it as well as I dish it out. I've been on the receiving end of more than one really good sucker punch in my day, but it was all in good fun. And that's New Orleans, Baby - Civil War and Mardi Gras served on one po-boy! Thanks, again. Less

New Orleans Master

Reviewed March 4, 2018

My family and I spent two hours touring around the French quarter with Randy and we had a wonderful time. I don't think I can speak for my whole family, but he gave me the most fantastic touring experience I've ever had. He cut out all of the trash you usually hear from some of those dime-a-dozen tour guides. I got a level of historical depth that really made me feel immersed in the culture and the busy city.  But like any good teacher, he was able to make the content entertaining so that no matter who you are, you'd enjoy the trip. I highly recommend spending some time with him and learning about some of the great history behind New Orleans.

    This was our families first trip to New Orleans. We abosolutely loved it! Randy was out guide in the Garden District, FANTASTIC! He was super knowlegble, polite, friendly and a total HOOT! We are scheduling a trip back in 2019 and will be hiring Randy for more tours. He is the best of the best!

      Oh, I am so flattered by this - I've said it over and over (and I'm sincere about it) what makes a good tour guide is a good tourist. When there is a connection, it's sublime! I had so much fun hanging out with you and now that I know you're coming back I have something to look forward to. THANKS More

      a million times! Less
