Your Itinerary

Lafayette Cemetery No.1

Peek inside the gates of Lafayette Cemetery #1, one of New Orleans' most famous above-ground cemeteries. The cemetery has been closed to the public since 2019 but the gates are nice and wide so your guide can show you this lovely historical and sacred place.

Garden District

Explore the elegant 19th Century mansions, lush subtropical gardens, and intricate ironwork of the famous tree-shaded and peaceful Garden District. This neighborhood has been the filming location of dozens of TV shows and movies (NCIS: New Orleans, American Horror Story, Double Jeopardy, Drake's In My Feelings. The Mayfair Witches, Your Honor, Django Unchained, and many more) and today is home to quite a few celebrities. On this 45 minute whirlwind tour, your guide will lead you to all the best locations in this historic district established after the Louisiana Purchase as New Orleans started to grow into its American identity.
