French Quarter Walking Tour: Jackson Square to Bourbon Street

Description

Step beyond the crowds and the familiar Bourbon Street scene and experience the French Quarter through the stories that bring its streets to life. Walk beneath the balconies and past colorful Creole architecture as your local guide reveals the people, traditions, legends, and unexpected history behind the neighborhood. From the lively atmosphere of Jackson Square to the quiet passage of Pirates Alley, you'll discover places that are easy to walk past without knowing their stories. See St. Louis Cathedral, hear about literary legends including Tennessee Williams and William Faulkner, and explore the history behind Mardi Gras and other New Orleans traditions. And yes, we'll talk about Bourbon Street too—but you'll experience the French Quarter as much more than its famous nightlife. You'll leave with a deeper understanding of the history, culture, and stories that make this neighborhood unlike anywhere else.
