Forget Hand Grenades and Hurricanes, this tour goes beyond Bourbon Street! Join New Orleans tour guide Dylan O’Donnell aka Dr. Gumbo on a journey through New Orleans’ historic and fascinating history of cocktails, and sample them along the way.
Belly up to the oldest stand-up bar in the city, find out where the Grasshopper was invented, get the real scoop on absinthe, learn the origins of the Sazerac and discover hidden gems where locals have been imbibing for centuries.
Each stop will feature a classic cocktail, and Dr. Gumbo will give you the history behind them!
