This was my first time using this operation. Tour bus driver, Jacque, was professional, friendly and very knowledgeable. His text the night before tour introducing himself and confirming pick up location was very helpful. Overview of New Orleans and plantations en route was interesting and detailed. Tour guide, Nicholas at Oak Alley was dry and only provided basics on physical plant. No communication on furniture, art or decor . Limited info provided on family. House was spectacular. Tour guide at Evergreen, charming highly engaged African American lady was outstanding. She covered the history, architecture, family and slave population with great skill and presented information in an interesting fashion. She was skilled at covering difficult subjects with sensitivity and kept the conversation honest at the same time. It's killing me I can't remember her name because she one of the best during my week long stay.
