Tour New Orleans: walking tours of the Garden District and Cemetery

New Orleans Walking Tours

“Now I have seen most of the world's great cities, but New Orleans will always be special -- for coffee and beignets at the Café du Monde on the Mississippi; for the music of Aaron and Charmaine Neville, the old guys at Preservation Hall, and the memory of Al Hirt; for jogging through the French Quarter in the early morning; for amazing meals at terrific restaurants...”

Bill Clinton, My Life

Why a New Orleans walking tour? Small group New Orleans walking tours of our neighborhoods, the French Quarter, the Garden District, or our cemeteries, provide the best opportunity to see and learn about our unique places and customs.

New Orleans French Quarter Walking Tours
Your native New Orleanian guide can put you right there with the bold and courageous French Canadian, known as Bienville, as he explored the exotic Gulf Coast and established a city in a location his engineers thought to be "unfit for human habitation." The dynamic men and women who "grew" the old city and who at various times rescued it from ruin will be as real to you as your fellow tourists.

New Orleans Garden District Walking Tour
Discover the forgotten history of New Orleans' Garden District in the American Sector. These "Southern Yankees," were largely responsible for making New Orleans the most prosperous city in the South and the fourth largest city in the U.S. during the mid 1800s. Their stunning mansions remain as monuments to industry, business smarts, and American capitalism.

New Orleans Cemetery Walking Tours
Our cities of the dead will grab hold of your imagination and stay with you as long as your memory remains intact. Ninety percent of all burials in New Orleans are still above ground. Simple wall vaults, large tombs, and copings with often poignant and sometimes amusing inscriptions memorialize the spirit of New Orleans' early residents.

If your time in New Orleans is limited, take one of our New Orleans walking tours. You won't regret it, I guaronteee!
