Reiseverlauf
Erkunden Sie das Garden District, eines der schillerndsten Wohnviertel der Welt, mit sachkundigen und unterhaltsamen Führern. Erleben Sie die architektonische Pracht des von Eichen gesäumten „amerikanischen“ Stadtteils und erkunden Sie die Antebellum-Ära Konflikt „Kreolisch gegen Amerikanisch“. Erleben Sie Geschichte und Kultur, die sich in Architekturstilen widerspiegeln, darunter Greek Revival, Italianate, Second Empire, Gothic, Georgian, Swiss Chalet, Queen Anne und mehr. Zu den Highlights zählen die ehemaligen oder aktuellen Häuser von Archie, Peyton und Eli Manning: Anne Rice, Nicolas Cage, Sandra Bullock, Trent Reznor und John Goodman; der Maisstielzaun, die Todesstelle von Jefferson Davis, die Filmstätte The Curious Case of Benjamin Button, "Miss Robichaux 'Akademie für außergewöhnliche junge Damen" von AMERICAN HORROR STORY und vieles mehr! [Die Stadt hat den Lafayette Cemetery vorübergehend geschlossen - Besichtigung von außen.] Die Garden District Tour betont Geschichte, architektonischen Stil, persönliche Anekdoten und tropische Pflanzenwelt.
Wir machen unsere gesamte Friedhofstour, die normalerweise 20 Minuten von den Toren entfernt ist, da die Stadt New Orleans den Lafayette Cemetery 2019 geschlossen hat, aber wir machen die Friedhofstour trotzdem von den Toren aus.

David was extremely informed and made the tour fun and educational. Would highly recommend- he is a fount of knowledge when it comes to New Orleans history!
It was a nice overview of some of the homes in the neighborhood including architectural history and ownership.
Tour guide was very knowledgeable of area and history
Received a text in the am that the afternoon tour guide was sick. Asked if we could do another time, but unfortunately we could not. The organizer said they would try to find another guide. I had to text to find out that they found a guide! In the Uber to tour, the guide texts and I reply « on our way. » then several texts follow cancelling tour. Confused, quickly text asking to confirm. No reply so I ask Uber to take us to WW2 exhibit. Then I get another text that the tour is not cancelled, I’m completely confused and arriving at museum. I text back and say you cancelled tour (this is about 10 minutes before tour starts). Guide texts not cancelled . But I had already committed to plan B and Uber driver accommodatiingly takes us to museum. So guide cancels BUT does NOT refund us!! Guide should have texted participants separately to avoid confusion!!
We enjoyed the tour. Our tour guide, Randy, was very knowledgeable and added fun elements to the tour.
The guide was very well informed and he answered all questions and explained them. I enjoyed it very much.
So much information on history and fun facts about the houses and people that have purchased and renovated the homes and properties. I had no idea regarding the fencing that surrounds each property. It was definitely something im going to share and recommend!!!! Our tour guide was awesome and answered all of our questions. I would recommend his tour to anyone of all ages!!! Thank you!!!
Walking by cemetery and in the garden district. Beautiful old houses with lots of history. Make sure you bring your phone or camera for pictures. David, our tour guide,was knowledgeable & shared lots of stories and facts.
Some interesting facts shared about the area at the beginning of the tour. Very minimal information given about the cemetery, which was fairly disappointing. I passed another tour on my way back and that group was being given extensive information along with pictures by another guide. Nice basic walk around the Garden district pointing out celebrity homes.
Wear good walking shoes. The sidewalks are very old and not in good condition. Neighborhood is amazing and definitely a must see. Highly recommend this tour!
