Fun music venue for classic New Orleans style jazz and swing.
Cool area to see alligators, swamps, and beautiful nature. About a 40 minute drive from downtown.
We did two of these free tours when we were last in New Orleans and loved them. They're enjoyable, informative, and totally free (with an option to tip at the end). We did the French Quarter tour and the voodoo tour and loved both, but there's many to choose from.
Take a cheap and quick ferry ride across the river to wander through some the the cutest cottages in New Orleans, in the city's second oldest neighborhood.
The new location of a historic New Orleans fried chicken spot. We visited the original location before a fire took it out and were blown away by the soul food! There are many imitating businesses around New Orleans with deceptively similar names, but this is the OG business.
A chance to see Mardi Gras floats up close, and learn about how they’re made, as well as the holiday’s history.
Small Italian market and deli. Home of the muffuletta sandwich, which is great for sharing! Vegetarian option available too
