The tour runs about an hour.Is it for me?An hour inside the house means you can fit this tour into a morning or afternoon without reshaping the rest of your day, and the guide's focus on how the family actually lived—the plumbing, the skylight, the labor behind it—suits anyone curious about how New Orleans homes worked, not just their appearance from the street.
