City Tour

The air in New Orleans feels like a slow conversation—thick, warm, and willing to tell a story if you ask. You meet it first outside your hotel as a compact, climate-controlled mini‑bus eases into the curb. Windows frame ironwork balconies and live oak canopies; a guide with easy authority points out a statue, a shotgun house, then steers the conversation toward the French Quarter’s layered past.

Adventure Tips

Bring water and sunscreen

Two hours in New Orleans sun and humidity can add up—carry a refillable bottle and apply sunscreen before boarding.

Comfortable shoes for the cemetery stop

Tomb grounds are uneven and can be damp; wear closed shoes with good grip for the short walk.

Ask your guide for dining tips

Guides know which nearby spots serve authentic Creole and where lines are worth it—get a recommendation before you disembark.

Plan pickup timing

Allow 30 minutes for pickup and 15–30 minutes for drop-off windows when scheduling other activities that day.
