John was our tour guide for the day. He was super knowledgeable and funny.

Organized! With all of the tours this company has to offer I was surprised that I didn't fall through the cracks as I had 3 tours with this company. The Natchez dinner cruise, a swamp tour complete with swamp puppies and trash pandas, and the Oak Alley tour. I recommend this company and any tour they have to offer.

We had a fabulous tour, and great ride in the coach bus. We had a female driver who was a month new to the company, she was just excellent. She drove safely and smoothly. She had a smile and great attitude the whole entire time. Had some good jokes and kept us entertained. The bus was very clean, the day was nice.

Being tourists in the city, we wanted to take in the sights and sounds preferring to do it in comfort with minimal walking. We traveled in September and although not peak summer, it was still hot with temps around 88-93 degrees. With city exploration on the brain, we left it to the pros at Grey Line to show us around. We did the City and Cemetery tour by bus. It was a quiet ride, air-conditioned bus with plush comfy seats. We sat in the front to hear our tour guide. Our tour guide was John and our driver was Kisha. Both did an awesome job getting us around St. Louis Cemetery #3, City Park and the Garden District. We learned a lot about each destination and enjoyed taking in all the views, history and fun facts. I didn't even realize City Park was one and a half times larger than Central Park! Paid public parking is just minutes from the main entrance lighthouse. I think we paid around $15-20 to park for 4.5 hours. Try to get there at least 15 minutes prior to arrival. They board soon after and you're given a sticker to identify as part of the tour group.Pro-Tip: Bring shades, sunscreen, a hat and a bottle or two of water with you. The summer months get hot out here! Overall, we enjoyed our 3 hour excursion. Definitely put it on your to-do's while visiting.

This is a well-oiled machine! I booked our tour through Get Your Guide which I've used all over the world (Paris, Germany, Turkey, USA) and we easily found the meeting spot based upon the instructions and emails. Check-in was a breeze, the bus was nice and new and spotless, and we left right on time. Our driver/guide was Alton and he was exceptional. We really enjoyed some of the history and information about New Orleans and the surrounding areas as we drove past on our 1.5 hour drive to Oak Alley plantation for a 2-hour tour. We departed right on time back to the city and all was as planned. No complaints from me!

Excellent! We took the Cocktail tour in the French Quarter. Robi was our tour guide. He was exceptionally knowledgeable about the drinks and the history of the French quarter and Louisiana! We had a great time- and the drinks were fabulous!

We enjoyed perfect service from the first phone call to when we said good bye to our bus driver Tresina. Five stars for Greyline. Extremely professional and fun. The Oak Alley Tour itself is guided by their tour guide, not by Greyline Tours. The tour guide was very good and knowledgeable. The Plantation is beautiful and the plantation house is well kept and filled with amazing antique furniture. If you are curious about the life and history of the slave masters that owned the house, you will hear all about them and their wealth. However, I didn't sign up for a tour that glorifies the family that owned the plantation. I wanted to learn more about slavery, and their hardships, culture, music, etc. If you are into French architecture and the history of plantation ownership, you would enjoy the tour more than I. 1 star for the concept of this tour based on what I hoped to experience. Again. 5 stars for Greyline Tours.

Just hire a in private tour guide . A person will take you and you will have a better time. It cost about the same.. I just used them because I have never before because of I'm from here but I brought guests into town.

Our favorite tour was the Cemetery and Garden District Tour. You need to have Gail Hester as your tour guide. She knows a lot of history and information on New Orleans and she was just fantastic! It was a superb three hour tour with a break half way through to get snacks and use the restroom.

New Orleans Whitney Plantation Tour on Grayline: We took Grayline for transportation to and a self guided tour of the Whitney Plantation. Grayline gave great meeting location instructions, was on time, and all went smooth. We especially appreciated our bus driver Melinda, who was professional, courteous, on time, and told us about the historic areas as we drove from New Orleans to the Whitney Plantation in Wallace, Louisiana. Absolutely loved the tour and Melinda! Thank you!!

Highly, highly recommend the City Tour! The best 2.5 hours you'll spend exploring the highlights of the city in air conditioning. Kate was informative, friendly and New Orleans. Dwayne can navigate the streets like a boss. Take the tour and then explore the sites deeper...bike along the St. Andrew bayou, enjoy a beignet and coffee under an old oak tree in City Park or pay your respects in a cemetery.
