Things To Do
Sydney and Walda Besthoff Sculpture Garden
The sculpture garden is a wonderful and free activity in City Park. It can also be fun to rent a canoe and canoe through the sculpture garden and around city park. 10/10 recommend getting beignets at cafe du monde after and ending with some mini golf around the corner.
Bourbon Street
I guess you can go here? If you want? It is the times square of New Orleans and not our number one recommendation. If you do end up here we recommend the speakeasy bar upstairs from Fritzel's European Jazz Pub. It is upstairs and sometimes you need a password to get in, it's vampire themed! Ask the bartenders to do a magic trick if you end up there.
Audubon Zoo
Super fun for the kiddos! They have one of the world's only white gators (not albino, white gator). Get a daiquiri and stroll around the area.
The Country Club
The Country Club is a fantastic bar with a really fun drag brunch, and a gorgeous pool in the back yard. It is down the street from Alma (our favorite Honduran restaurant) and around the corner from Rosalita's tacos so we tend to do tacos and swim! Get here early to avoid a line. Adults Only
Jean Lafitte National Historical Park and Preserve
This is a bit out of town but is a lovely little swamp walk! If you do opt to rent a car and have some extra time definitely check it out.
Cooter Brown's Tavern
We got engaged here!
The National WWII Museum
It's a museum. About WWII.
Frenchmen Street
A fun street with bars, live music and an art market. Like Bourbon Street but less terrible.
Eat and Drink
There is so much good food and drinks in New Orleans we simply couldn't choose where to send y'all! If you have specific interests or need recommendations don't hesitate to reach out and Hannah will send you a personally curated list.
Lafayette Cemetery No. 1
Cemeteries are beautiful and unique here in swamp country. If you do opt to visit cemeteries, please be respectful.
