Reiseverlauf
Gleiten Sie durch die engen, historischen Gassen des ältesten Viertels der Stadt und genießen Sie die einzigartige Mischung aus Französischer, Spanischer und kreolischer Architektur. Sie sehen den Jackson Square, das Herz des Viertels, über dem die ikonische St. Louis Cathedral thront. In der Nähe passieren Sie die Mississippi Riverfront mit Blick auf die Dampfschiffe und die belebte Flusspromenade. Die Tour führt Sie auch die Royal Street und die Bourbon Street entlang, wo Sie den Kontrast zwischen eleganten Kunstgalerien, Antiquitätenläden und dem weltberühmten Nachtleben erleben werden. Unterwegs erzählt Ihr Fortgeschrittener Geschichten von Piraten, Voodoo, Jazz und Mardi Gras Traditionen und erweckt die Geschichte und Kultur von New Orleans zum Leben.
Es ist die älteste kontinuierlich aktive römisch-katholische Kathedrale in den Vereinigten Staaten, ursprünglich in den 1700er Jahren erbaut und 1850 rekonstruiert. Seine markanten Dreifachtürme überblicken den Jackson Square und machen es zu einer der meistfotografierten Stätten der Stadt.
Die Bourbon Street ist die berühmteste Straße im Französischen Viertel, die weltweit für ihr pulsierendes Nachtleben, Neonlichter, Live-Jazz und endlose Bars bekannt ist. Tagsüber sehen Sie historische Französische und Spanische Kolonialarchitektur mit schmiedeeisernen Balkonen, die mit Perlen bedeckt sind.
Es stammt aus dem späten 18. Jahrhundert und ist berühmt für seine oberirdischen Gräber – oft „Städte der Toten“ genannt –, die aufgrund des hohen Wasserspiegels der Stadt so gebaut wurden. Der meistbesuchte ist der St. Louis Cemetery Nr. 1, wo Sie kunstvolle Familienmausoleen und die Ruhestätten berühmter Persönlichkeiten wie Voodoo Queen Marie Laveau finden.
Frenchmen Street gibt Ihnen einen Vorgeschmack auf die wahre Musikkultur von New Orleans, wo Jazz geboren wurde und noch heute gedeiht.
Der Französische Markt ist der älteste Marketplace in New Orleans und stammt aus dem Jahr 1791. Heute ist es ein lebendiger Open-Air-Markt, auf dem Sie lokales Kunsthandwerk, Kunst, Souvenirs, Gewürze, frische Produkte und Essensstände finden, die alles von Beignets bis hin zu Cajun-Spezialitäten servieren. Es erstreckt sich entlang des Mississippi und fängt den Geist der Handelsvergangenheit der Stadt ein und verbindet Französische, Spanische, karibische und kreolische Einflüsse.

Segway is the best way to see the French Quarter! It's so easy and fun, even at 70 years we both had no problem. Ren was amazing! She gave us good training and we started slow but quickly became very comfortable with it. We covered everything from the Saint Louis Cathedral to the Riverwalk to Bourbon and Royal St. Ren gave us great History and stories, she was very knowledgeable. We loved it, segway is the best way to see it all!
Thank you so much, Sharon! 😊 We absolutely loved having you with us, and it means so much to hear that you enjoyed the experience. Ren will be very happy to hear your kind words! At Segway Tours New Orleans we truly believe Segway is one of the best ways to explore the French Quarter comfortably, have fun, and learn the city’s history along the way ⚜️ We hope to see you again on your next visit to New Orleans!
My husband and I lucked out and had a private tour with Ren. We only had one day to visit NOLA and had a blast. She was fun, friendly and very informative. Also, anyone with reservations about using a segway, no worries, it's easy to learn and Ren was extremely patient. She made our day!
Thank you so much for the wonderful review! 😊 We’re so happy to hear you both had a great time exploring New Orleans with Ren. She truly loves making the experience fun, informative, and comfortable for everyone, especially first-time Segway riders! It was a pleasure having you with us during your quick visit to NOLA, and we’re glad we could help make your day special. We hope to see you again on your next trip to New Orleans! ⚜️
Weather was supposed to be dry, but it dumped rain on us out of the blue. Ren easily pivoted our tour, and we were able to avoid some of the downpour. Ren was so friendly and patient and informative. We loved it!
Hi! Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We’re so happy to hear that, even with the unexpected rain, you still had such a great experience.

We truly appreciate your kind words and recommendation, and we hope to see you again on your next visit to New Orleans!
This is the 6th segway tour my husband and I have taken. We like to take a segway tour at each new city that we travel to because we feel it's a good way to get an overall feel for the city, it's history and culture. This segway tour was very so-so. Patrick, our guide, was very nice and patient with the 8 of us that were in his tour. However, he did not have a thorough knowledge of New Orleans it seemed, and did not give much information or facts about the city as we were traveling through it. Most of the segway tours we have been on provide headphones to the tourists. That way your tour guide can be in constant contact with his tourists while continually providing you with interesting facts about the areas you are rolling by. This tour did not have headphones. So the only time Patrick spoke to us was when we stopped. Another very important reason for providing headphones is tourist safety, especially when passing through intersections or areas of traffic congestion. It has been our experience that the guide will go through an intersection first, stop in the middle of it, insure all is clear, inform his tourist to pass, and then be the last one to leave the intersection. Patrick did none of this. In all cases, he passed through the intersection first, stayed first in the line and just assumed the rest of us, 8 of us, got through safely while he occasionally looked back. This happened through intersections that were not controlled, or controlled by stop signs, or traffic signals. This made me feel unsafe and not very well taken care of by the tour group. As, I said, this was my husband and I's 6th segway tour, in which one of them was in San Francisco, traveling IN the streets with traffic and segwaying down Lombard Street. I never felt unsafe in those situations because our tour guide had control and made our safety a priority . But we did not feel safe traveling through traffic with Patrick. My husband and I was happy we took the tour. We did get to roll through a lot of the city in a shorter time that it would have taken to walk. But I don't think I can recommend this tour.

Riding a segway is easier than it looks. Our guide, Patrick, was fantastic! He helped everyone feel comfortable on the segways before heading out. He was great with helping us through traffic and bumps in the road. I think this is my new favorite way to tour a city!
