New Orleans Super City Tour

Travel through three centuries of history, legends and romance in the Big Easy. Absorb the sights and sounds of the world-famous French Quarter and historic Jackson Square, home of The Cabildo and Presbytere museums. Travel through 15 historic neighborhoods, such as Treme & Faubourg Marigny, and learn about their cultures and people – both past and present. Visit the Cities of the Dead and learn about this unique above-ground burial system. Marvel at stories of voodoo and piracy on Bayou St. John, the waterway used by Jean Lafitte and his band of pirates, as we make our way to the shores of Lake Pontchartrain. View the longest bridge in the world, the Lake Pontchartrain Causeway. Hear about Hurricane Katrina – the good, the bad and the ugly – as we pass the major levee breach that caused unprecedented flooding in the city in 2005. It’s a tale of man vs. nature, the human spirit, rebirth of communities and a more prepared America. Follow the path of the St. Charles Avenue streetcar, which, up until Hurricane Katrina, was the oldest continuously operating streetcar in the world. See the homes of former Kings & Queens of Mardi Gras and the stately mansions in the world-famous Garden District. See the campuses of Tulane and Loyola Universities and visit the Audubon Zoo.

Thanksgiving and Mardi Gras are unavailable.
