A vibrant combination of French, Spanish and American cultures comes alive in the must-see city of New Orleans.
Ride a streetcar, taste Cajun and Creole cuisine, celebrate Mardi Gras in February and visit the Jazz Museum for a true New Orleans experience. Soak up the atmosphere on Bourbon Street and admire the stunning architecture of the French Quarter, the oldest area of the city.
Perhaps take a cocktail walking tour to learn about the first cocktail ever created, the Sazerac! Travelling from New Orleans towards Baton Rouge, enter the New Orleans Plantation Country, home to eight plantation homes including the popular Houmas House Plantation and Oak Alley Plantation, an instantly recognisable and photographed home. Explore the exciting swamp area on a swamp or airboat tour.
