The tour begins at the iron gate of Lafitte's Blacksmith Shop Bar, where the warm, humid air of the Quarter carries streetcar bells and a faint, bourbon-slicked sweetness. Guests gather on the cracked flagstones; guide’s voice cuts through the murmurs and the distant brass band. The group moves off at a steady, conversational pace—past narrow courtyards, shuttered balconies, and gas-lamp shadows that seem to lean closer as twilight falls.
