The French Quarter by Foot (Private tour)
Highlights: St. Louis Cathedral, Jackson Square, Bourbon Street, and more…
Get ready to see the hidden gems of the beguiling city of New Orleans in the best way possible: on foot. Your tour guide will begin by giving you some perspective on New Orleans with a brief overview of the city’s storied past. Then be prepared to step back in time, as your tour guide leads you from the noisy and infamous Bourbon Street, home to jazz clubs and street performers to peaceful moments in hidden, quiet courtyards and quaint alleyways. You will be inspired as you pass colorful homes featuring lush balconies draped with plants. Your guide will also bring you to such famous sites as Saint Louis Cathedral, Jackson Square, and the Mississippi River front. At the tour’s end, ask your guide to point you to several possible adventures. Eager to find a hidden gem from the past? The six-mile Magazine Street, lined with antique shops to browse, starts off in the French Quarter. Want to see Napoleon Bonaparte’s death mask? The Cabildo, a former seat of Spanish rule, near Jackson Square features this and other surprises.
