Itinerario
Comience su recorrido relámpago en el corazón de la ciudad, Jackson Square. Desde aquí puedes ver la Catedral de St. Louis, dos museos estatales de Luisiana, los icónicos apartamentos Pontalba y la estatua de Andrew Jackson (por supuesto). Tu guía te dará una breve historia de Nueva Orleans y ¡listo!
Continúe por Chartres Street para ver algunos ejemplos de la arquitectura icónica de Nueva Orleans y excelentes tiendas y restaurantes, incluida una casa que fue preparada como refugio para Napoleón (spoiler: nos dejó plantados), un museo dedicado a los aspectos más extraños de la profesión farmacéutica del siglo XIX. ¡sanguijuelas!) y el Tribunal Supremo del Estado de Luisiana.
Recorra Bourbon Street para saborear (no literalmente, eso sería asqueroso) el centro de la juerga nocturna de Nueva Orleans, que incluye las salas de música y los establecimientos de bebidas más famosos. No te preocupes, normalmente no es tan impactante durante el día.
Royal Street tiene los ejemplos más bellos de casas adosadas del Barrio Francés con balcones con encajes de hierro, artistas callejeros y galerías de arte. ¡Esta es la calle de tus sueños en Nueva Orleans!
Haga una pausa lo suficiente para tomar algunas fotografías de la casa "más embrujada" de Nueva Orleans: la antigua residencia de la asesina en serie del siglo XIX Madame Delphine LaLaurie. ¡Quizás te dé escalofríos!
Aquí se encuentra el edificio más antiguo de la región, construido originalmente para las monjas Ursulinas que llegaron a Nueva Orleans en 1727 para añadir algo de respetabilidad a la ciudad. ¡Buena suerte, pobres monjas!
Obtenga algunas ideas para refrigerios y compras en el futuro en el Mercado Francés, el mercado al aire libre cerca del río donde Nueva Orleans ha comprado y comido durante siglos. ¡Observa las cabezas de caimanes, muñecos vudú, bombones, crepes, vasos de chupito y ostras que has estado buscando! Pero tendrás que volver más tarde: ¡tenemos más que ver!
Experimente un poco del "valor" del Barrio Francés en Decatur Street, donde hay tiendas interesantes, restaurantes de mariscos, cafés, tiendas de dulces, música por todas partes y una estatua dorada de Juana de Arco. Siga el azúcar en polvo hasta el mundialmente famoso Café Du Monde, el mejor lugar para tomar un café con leche mientras come buñuelos y observa a la gente pasar y escucha jazz en vivo. Si tu abuela vino aquí, ella lo hizo, ¡tú también tienes que hacerlo! ¿Ya tienes hambre? ¡Casi terminamos!
Este parque ahora se llama Oscar Dunn Park (pero Google no ha recibido la nota) y es el lugar perfecto para finalizar su recorrido súper rápido por el Barrio Francés, con vistas de Jackson Square y el río Mississippi. ¡Te has ganado esos buñuelos y eres MUCHO más inteligente y en forma que hace una hora!

Just go book the tour already - you will not be disappointed! Libby was a fantastic guide with so much knowledge of New Orleans and its colorful and interesting history. She tailored our tour to the interests of our group and made sure to answer every question we had. We had a group of high school aged girls and she delivered the information in a way that hooked them from the beginning. I hope we can come back and do another one soon!!
I am so grateful for this review, as I was grateful to be able to walk around with your group in the French Quarter! We had a really nice time.

I know you’ll be back, and I’m looking forward to showing y’all around again! There are more stories to tell! Libby

Thank you so much! We are so happy that you shared a little of your birthday weekend with us, and that you enjoyed our walk through the French Quarter. Your family and friends and even the baby were gracious and tough in the rain! Please come again! Libby
Libby gave us a great experience. She’s very knowledgeable and her enthusiasm for New Orleans shone through every moment. We also appreciated her shopping recommendations and we went to every place!
Thank you for this wonderful review! As we talked about, this tour is a fairly new offering so each high rating and recommendation is enormously helpful to this small business! We love our “quick run“ through the French Quarter and we are happy that you enjoyed it, too! It was a pleasure to walk with you and your friends, and we look forward to showing you around next time. See you then! Libby
Libby was fantastic! She was incredibly informative, answered all of our questions thoroughly, and made the experience really enjoyable. We also had the opportunity to have a private tour, which made it even more special. Highly recommend! 45 minutes was the perfect length especially for the afternoon heat.
Wow! Thank you so much! It was fun to walk around with you and your group, and I appreciate your hardiness in the heat and humidity. I think our 45 minute tours are going to be very popular this summer! I hope your entire time in New Orleans was fun and memorable, and I hope y’all look me up and walk with me next time you make it to the city. Libby
This is a great way to start a stay in New Orleans if you're staying in the French Quarter. Libby knew a ton of history and shared her preferred spots for dining, beignets, music, and more. She was a lot of fun.
Thank you so much for this fantastic review! I had a great time walking around with you and the students through the fun French Quarter! I hope your entire adventure in New Orleans was a memorable and fun, and that you walk with me another time. Libby
Libby was amazing and worked with our schedule when our flight was cancelled after a seven hour delay. She was understanding and accommodating and we couldn't be more grateful! The tour told us everything we needed to know and more about the area. She also recommended Sweet Saint Ice Cream which was literally the best ice cream I've ever had and Empanola which was incredible.
I am so happy that we finally got to run around together in the French Quarter after all your delays! I enjoyed meeting y'all and sharing history and recommendations. I am glad you had the ice cream and the empanadas, and I hope y'all come tour with me again! Libby
Perfect tour if you don’t have much time. Libby was so knowledgeable and the tour was a great start to understanding the history and sights of NOLA
Thank you! It was so much fun to fly through the French Quarter with you as you took pictures of this beautiful neighborhood and furiously took notes about fun things to do! Please come again! Libby
