We always recommend a city tour to start your visit -it's a great way to get your bearings and local guides will always have the best insights. There are several New Orleans city tours available from coach to French Quarter walking tours with a choice of durations.
Tour content can vary, but highlights typically include:
- The French Quarter and historic Jackson Square
- Historic cemetery visit - learn about the unique above-ground burial system used in this area
- Marvel at stories of voodoo and piracy on Bayou St. John
- View the longest bridge over water in the world, the Lake Pontchartrain Causeway.
- Follow the path of the St. Charles Avenue streetcar, the oldest continuously operating passenger railway system in the world
- See the homes of former Kings and Queens of Mardi Gras, stately mansions and the world-famous, exclusive Garden District.
- View Tulane and Loyola Universities across from Audubon Park and Audubon Zoo.
