"My family enjoyed a walk through Armstrong Park and a bit of the French Quarter with Holley. She is friendly, knowledgeable, and pleasant company. Her tour feels like time with a friend and not a recorded infomercial. "

"If you love music...if you love history...if you love artful storytelling...Holley is the tour guide for you. A fountain of information wrapped up in heart and passion for the subjects of her beloved New Orleans and the music and legends that are born of it. I had a wonderful time and learned so much from Holley. She is a true gem of the city. "

"It was great to meet Holley & learn so much about the city she loves. The tour was a perfect blend of history lesson, social & political commentary & music. We learned so much! Holley also gave us some brilliant tips on the lical area. Thank you Holley!"

"Holly is an adorable person, she knows the history of music by heart. Extremmilly prepered since she is a misician herself and knows every musician in town. She showed us in detail and I highly recomend her tour. The best tour I´ve had in my life! "

"We had a great tour with Holley! She provided so much information about the history of music in New Orleans, along with the history of the city itself. She had lots of fun facts, anecdotes and even some singing. Holley is knowledgeable, engaging and fun. I would highly recommend this tour!"

"Holley met us at Congo Park because we happened to book the tour on the day of an outside music festival. She used the performances and the historic elements of the park (including a tree where offerings in the Voodoo tradition were left) to explain the culture and music of New Orleans. We then walked in the nearby neighborhood, listening to her great stories about jazz history. Our group included one current music producer and one former jazz dj; they both said they learned a lot in the tour. Holley was easy to talk to, full of anecdotes, and just rest to spend time with. Highly recommend! "

"What a thoroughly excellent experience my wife and I had yesterday evening. We had messaged Holley before we left UK as regards my wifes late father. He was a blues pianist from New Orleans and we wanted to see if we could get some closer information. Holley not only gave us a fantastic and in depth tour of N.O musical heritage but also information on Jack that we hadn't found ourselves. The experience of a sage blessing in memory of Jack around the tree in Congo Square was truly spiritual and humbling. We would Highly recommend Holley to anyone with or without an interest in music and history. Fantastic experience all round. Thank you Holley."

"The tour with Holley was so interesting and fun! With her incredible passion for music and deep knowledge of history you can’t help falling in love with New Orleans, the people, the houses and of course the music. We come from Italy and we didn’t know anybody here, but Holley perfectly embodied the spirit of “with locals”, being a wonderful host for us and leaving us with the feeling of having a friend in the city :) "

"Holley was not only knowledgeable, she was also very personable! She intertwined history, musical development and cultural impact into lively storytelling throughout our tour. We took part in local and historical traditions during our time with her, and visited some unique and hidden gems in the city. We also appreciated her willingness to recommend locations for dinner and performance venues throughout the city. She made our experience special and we feel like we left New Orleans with a new friend! If you are looking for a learning experience while in the city, we would highly recommend Withlocals and Holley!"

"Holley covered the key New Orleans influences on the development of jazz. She was a wealth of information and local insights. Very friendly, interesting and informative. "
