Highly recommend this tour and would return with friends.”

“My college kids and I began planning our after-Christmas visit to NOLA summer 2023, with the goal of highlighting music, history, and food, the signature features of the city. I soon discovered Soul of New Orleans and Cassandra Snyder. What initially attracted me to Soul of New Orleans was Cassandra's mission of tailoring our New Orleans experiences to our particular interests. Cassandra and I worked together to develop an array of activities. She arranged 2 morning walking tours, guided by Derek, who is soon completing his Ph.D. in history.
