"The Black Heritage & Jazz Tour, led by founder Mikhala Iversen, is a deeply moving and transformative experience that leaves a lasting emotional impact on its participants. Iversen's passion for culture, respect for the historic Tremé neighborhood, and her authentic representation of African American history and the treasures of New Orleans are truly phenomenal. The tour is not just an educational journey, but also a spiritual experience. As we walked through Armstrong Park, Iversen's storytelling, singing, and deep knowledge inspired, motivated, and educated us. The tour was a healing experience, particularly when we bowed our heads listening to the horrific details of the middle passage and raised our hands and voices to our ancestors as we walked around the ancestor tree in Congo Square. This act of honoring the past and understanding the present was deeply moving and served as a catalyst for family discussions in the days that followed. Iversen's emotional intelligence as a tour guide significantly enhanced the tour experience. Her ability to appraise and regulate emotions, both her own and those of the tour participants, contributed to a higher level of engagement and emotional impact. Her storytelling was not only informative but also emotionally resonant, creating a profound connection with the participants. The emotional impact of the tour was further amplified by Iversen's commitment to post-tour engagement. She provided an outstanding book list to continue our education, demonstrating her dedication to fostering a deeper understanding and appreciation of African American history and culture. In conclusion, the Black Heritage & Jazz Tour is a deeply emotional and transformative experience that educates, inspires, and heals. Mikhala Iversen's passion, knowledge, and emotional intelligence make her an exceptional guide, and her commitment to authentic representation and ongoing education is truly commendable. This tour is not just a walk through a historic neighborhood; it's a journey through history, culture, and the human spirit."

"Wow! Mikhala was too legit! A wonderfully open and honest tour about the true history of New Orleans and the area. You won’t hear these stories anywhere else. Magical and refreshing to say the least, Mikhala’s tour was a radical lesson in what it means to be an American. Eye-opening."

"Some pictures from the Black Heritage and Jazz Tour. Excellent tour! Highly recommend! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We learned so much about the Black History of New Orleans, Slavery, and Jazz! Our tour guide Mikhala was phenomenal and is such a beautiful jazz singer! We loved visiting the black owned coffee shop at the end of the tour as well! Definitely check out this tour if you’re in NOLA!"

"An absolute must on your trip! The tour was inspirational, powerful and very real. This Black woman business is telling the truth about slavery, and the Black experience in NOLA. This tour is a consciousness raising experience. This tour was life changing and the best tour I have EVER been on. We went on the "Singing is Praying Tour". If I had more time in the city we would go on all the tours!"

"What an amazing experience! If you are trying to decide which touring company to go with while in New Orleans, please, let me save you time...go with Mikhala at All Bout Dat Tours-you are not going to find a more gracious, authentic, informed person to educate you. She is extremely intelligent, spiritual, kind, and professional. I could have listened to her all day. We chose the Black Heritage & Jazz Tour, couldn't be more satisfied. Thank You Mikhala"
