Suitable for all fitness levels; requires short periods of standing and a brief cemetery walk.
Ride a 13‑passenger mini‑bus through the French Quarter, Tremé, Garden District and an iconic above‑ground cemetery on a focused two‑hour tour that combines history, recovery, and local recommendations. Ideal for first‑time visitors who want context before they explore on foot.
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.

Two hours in New Orleans sun and humidity can add up—carry a refillable bottle and apply sunscreen before boarding.
Tomb grounds are uneven and can be damp; wear closed shoes with good grip for the short walk.
Guides know which nearby spots serve authentic Creole and where lines are worth it—get a recommendation before you disembark.
Allow 30 minutes for pickup and 15–30 minutes for drop-off windows when scheduling other activities that day.
New Orleans grew at the meeting point of river and Gulf, shaped by colonial trade, migration, and unique burial practices that led to above‑ground cemeteries.
Rising seas and hurricane risk drive local resilience projects; visitors can support by choosing local guides, respecting fragile cemetery sites, and minimizing single‑use plastics.
Support and grip for short pavement and cemetery walks.
Stay hydrated in humid weather—many stops have limited shade.
