French Quarter Favorites: New Orleans Landmarks Walking Tour

We’ll begin beneath the shadow of the mighty St. Louis Cathedral, where artists still sketch ghosts and street preachers tango with jazzmen. We’ll linger in Jackson Square, that old colonial stage where empires shifted and revolutions whispered.

From there, we’ll trace Royal Street’s stately elegance, peer into secret courtyards, and drift past the old Ursuline Convent with its silent, shuttered mysteries. We’ll pass by where Tennessee Williams, William Faulkner and others penned Iconic works, where pirates bartered with priests, and where beignets powdered the lips of poets.

Lafitte's where pirates bartered with priests, a future president, and so many other souls. Infamous for being the home to that most dangerous Purple Drank - the Voodoo Daiquiri!

Long before there was New Orleans, the first people gathered and traded on this very spot. Where today you can always find treasures from New Orleans and the region, but also from the far corners of the globe. No tour of French Quarter Favorites is complete without a stop at the Market.
