Of New Orleans
Welcome to Henley's Private Tours, LLC! I'm Glen Henley, your personal tour guide, and I can't wait to share my passion for New Orleans with you. As a local with deep roots in Louisiana and a licensed tour guide since 2012, I'm dedicated to providing you with an experience, not just a tour.
Let's explore the vibrant culture and rich history of this amazing city together! Glen
Some of the details
Join me on this journey through the vibrant history of our unique city! We'll explore the tales of early explorers along the Mississippi River and delve into the diverse neighborhoods like the French Quarter, Tremé, and the Garden District, each with captivating stories. Experience the soul of Louisiana through its mouthwatering cuisine, Jazz music, and the rich diversity of our people. Along the way, we'll reflect on significant events that shaped our city, from the Battle of New Orleans to Hurricane Katrina, and the Civil war all while sharing a few laughs along the way.

The Plantation Tours
We Can also venture beyond the city and into the history pf the plantation era here in Louisiana. The plantations are significant for their historical, architectural, and cultural importance. Many of these estates were established during the antebellum period before the Civil War and are located primarily along the Mississippi River in Louisiana along the river road. They showcase a variety of architectural styles, including Creole, Greek Revival, and Italianate designs, often surrounded by lush gardens and centuries-old live oak trees.
During this drive out to the plantations you will learn about and see our wetlands and hear many of the topics that make Louisiana so unique.
We will also cross the Mississippi river on our route to see one of the greatest rivers in the world. Learn how this river has affected our lives then and still does today.
