Activity itinerary

Cafe Du Monde
  • 15m
We love the food of New Orleans - from cajun to creole (yes there is a difference) to the sweet beignets of Cafe du Monde - our hint - don't try and get a table, just go to the takeaway window and proceed to your next stop.
The Moonwalk Riverfront Park
  • 5m
This part of Louisiana was originally settled because of its critical location on the Mississippi, come see the mighty river and learn about the history.
French Market
  • 10m
Some of our favourite places in cities are their public markets, and New Orleans is no exception with incredible food and art jumbled together in the eclectic centre - explore away!
Old Ursuline Convent Museum
  • 5m
  • Admission ticket not included
While currently closed due to the pandemic, you'll peak through the iron gateway to see the oldest building in the city - built by the French king - and home for centuries to cloistered nuns.
Beauregard-Keyes House
  • 5m
  • Admission ticket not included
Just across the street is the Beauregard-Keyes House, one of the best preserved examples of 1800s architecture in the city.
Lafitte's Blacksmith Shop Bar
  • 5m
We could spend the entire tour talking about this one area. First, as one of the oldest structures remaining in New Orleans, this epitomises "Creole Cottages" and as one of the oldest structures remaining in New Orleans, is rumoured to be haunted several times over!
New Orleans Historic Voodoo Museum
  • 5m
  • Admission ticket not included
Voodoo is not about dolls and hexes. In fact, it is one of the oldest (and most misrepresented) spiritual beliefs in the world. Originated in Africa, the global diaspora of voodoo is complex and mystical.
Royal Street
  • 10m
The art and of New Orleans represent the agglomeration of cultures that influenced this part of America, from African sculpture to French Rococo - and the modern galleries along Royal Street are a feast for the eyes.
Pirates Alley
  • 5m
While it is unlikely that pirates actually hung out beside the cathedral and city hall, this street does have quite the history of intrigue and scandal, from Andrew Jackson to William Faulkner.
St. Louis Cathedral
  • 5m
We finish our tour back at the imposing cathedral of St. Louis, that has weathered hurricanes, battles, and scandal to remain a symbol of New Orleans, a great American city.
