"Showcasing this great American city and everything it has to offer is our motivation," explains Patrick Healey, who founded Premium Tours and Transportation together with industry expert Peter Van Dusen. "We want our guests to have experiences they will never forget, and to recommend us to friends and colleagues. To that end, we're focusing on providing the best possible customer service."
The Gators and Guns tour combines a shooting range experience with an airboat swamp tour. Guests start the tour at Jefferson Indoor Shooting Range, where they can choose from upwards of 15 different guns to shoot. Available models range from the tried-and-true AK-47 to the MP5 9mm submachine gun. Every guest is accompanied by a certified shooting instructor to ensure a safe experience. Before leaving the range, guests will have the opportunity to take pictures.
Part two of Gators and Guns takes guests to Jean Lafitte Swamp for a 2-hour airboat ride conducted by Airboat Adventures. Full-grown alligators will be visible in the water or sunning themselves on islands. Guests can even enjoy a hands-on experience by holding (and taking pictures with) a baby alligator.
For the craft beer enthusiasts, Ginger Pat's Brewery Tour includes behind-the-scenes access to three local microbreweries in the city's Lower Garden District – Courtyard Brewery, Urban South Brewery and NOLA Brewery –and a tour of the history of brewing in New Orleans beginning in 1726. Guests receive a minimum of two six-ounce samples at each stop for a total of 40 to 48 ounces of beer. Meanwhile, brewery staff discuss their craft and illuminate the differences between beer styles. Ginger Pat's Brewery Tour runs daily from 4 to 7 pm, and groups are limited to 13.
