45 minute Highlights of the Garden District

Overview

This fast-paced tour is ideal if you are short on time and want to see as much of the city as possible, or if you have taken several longer tours and just wish to see the highlights of the Garden District. It's a fast-paced fun excursion through this unique and historic neighborhood. It is a very visual tour, with less focus on storytelling or history, but your guide will give you a brief rundown of the history and point out architectural elements. We cover all the most impressive homes in the Garden District and include a stop at Lafayette Cemetery #1. The cemetery is closed, but the gates are wide enough to see in and get some great pictures!

Garden District

Explore the elegant 19th Century mansions, lush subtropical gardens, and intricate ironwork of the famous tree-shaded and peaceful Garden District. This neighborhood has been the filming location of dozens of TV shows and movies (NCIS: New Orleans, American Horror Story, Double Jeopardy, Drake's In My Feelings. The Mayfair Witches, Your Honor, Django Unchained, and many more) and today is home to quite a few celebrities. On this 45 minute whirlwind tour, your guide will lead you to all the best locations in this historic district established after the Louisiana Purchase as New Orleans started to grow into its American identity.
