What To Do > Tours

With so many different things to see and do (and taste) in New Orleans, it follows that the city’s tour choices would be just as varied and unusual. No matter your age, interests, or length of stay in New Orleans, and regardless of exactly how, when or where you prefer to experience the city, there is undoubtedly a perfect tour here for you.

So many areas of the city and its environs – French Quarter, Faubourg Marigny, Garden District, Uptown, Algiers, swamplands and beyond – have their own unique heritage and flavor. And each has special stories to tell; some are about history, culture, architecture or art, while other delve into music, cuisine, wine or even cocktails first-hand. Some reveal legends of voodoo or the paranormal; others explore the region’s nature, wildlife and watery terrain.

New Orleans tour operators are consummate professionals, with guides who tell the region’s stories with knowledge, passion and flare. What better way could there be to experience all that New Orleans has to offer?

By land: If you don’t want to use your own two feet, rely on the four hooves of a mule-drawn carriage. Or sit back and enjoy guided bus tours in and around the great city.

By water: Glide through the swamps on an airboat. Take a paddlewheeler up or down the Mississippi. Charter a fishing rig or a pirogue.

By air: Sample cheese and champagne on a private flight over the city. See the expansive Bayou by seaplane. Skydive!

However and wherever you go, and whatever you see or do, your New Orleans tour experience is guaranteed to create memories for a lifetime.
