New Orleans Tours in September 2027

All hotels were excellent, including the Opry resort which was top-notch. Nice to have breakfast included to get a quick start to the day. ***********, our tour director, had a great personality and was very familiar with the area that added highlights to the trip. He was very personable in fact, celebrated birthdays, going out of his way to bring treats for the group. Drew even played trivia games on our long bus rides to keep everyone entertained. I would highly recommend this trip to all my friends and family.

The tour was fun, busy and mostly great! The Tour Director Drew was superior! He made the trip!! He went above and beyond to make it a fun experience for everyone!! The Jazz cruise was bad. Food mediocre, no outside seating available, music on a screen.. very disappointed. The Gaylord was beautiful, but not much was open during our stay. Hotel locations in Memphis and New Orleans were very central to downtown. Gaylord was outside city, needed to Uber to downtown area. All hotels were very nice. We really enjoyed our trip!

This was one of the best tours I have been on. Our tour guide Drew went above and beyond to make everything run smoothly throughout the trip. Communication was excellent so we knew exactly what to expect every step of the way. We packed in so much but still had enough free time in each stop to explore on our own. The atmosphere in each city we visited was amazing… we had a couple of local guides join us on the bus for a short time. Their knowledge of the individual cities was so interesting adding a personal touch. I would recommend this trip to anyone with an interest in music and the history of the southern states of the USA. A trip to remember!!!

Well planned .. see a lot and right amount of time in each location. Drew out travel director made the journey even more fun by engaging everyone. Our driver Darrin was also excellent

This is a great trip if you’re keen to experience the USA Deep South Music and history. Great experience of New Orleans, Martin Luther King and the civil rights movements, Elvis and the music history of Memphis and Nashville. The trip is with Grand American Adventures- Exodus sister Company. You travel in a small tour bus driven by your guide. We were lucky we had 9 people on the trip as any more would have been a squeeze. A few early starts and longest drives on the road were 5-6 hours but had plenty of rest stop breaks. There’s a lot to see and do plus the music & dvds on the van helped get us in the mood and educate us to each area.

The itinerary was great and the tour guide was excellent however two of the 4 hotels were below average and didn’t come close to the other two on the holiday. The crown plaza in Memphis was ok but was situated near a homeless persons refuge/center that meant we felt unsafe walking from the hotel to the main attractions after dark in the evening. The hotel in New Orleans (la Quinta Hotel)was very poor indeed they never supplied clean towels each day, the shower leaked constantly and the water pressure on the sink was just a dribble coupled with very unclean and dusty rooms it was not a nice experience.
