Overseeing tours of New Orleans in cozy streetcars, themed exhibitions and festivals is a great way to get a closer look at the most colorful city in the USA.
From among the possible pastime options:
Culinary workshops and food tours organized by Langlois and a number of other restaurants in the city. The cost of a tour in New Orleans during Mardi Gras is from $100 USD. Among travelers' favorite delicacies are chocolate bread pudding, river crawfish in gravy and more.
Tours to haunted and vampire sites, which are the "highlight" of New Orleans tours. The route passes through the Garden District, where many old mansions have been preserved, the French Quarter, the mystical Manchac Swamp (from 400 USD), where legend has it that scary monsters live, and the Voodoo Temple, where ancient fortune-telling and rituals are still performed (from 300 USD).
Historic City Tours, which include a bus tour of New Orleans, visits to temples, 19th-century architecture, and walking tours with colorful musical accompaniment.
