Things to do in French Quarter
This charming neighborhood goes by a majestic title, Crown Jewel of New Orleans. The historic French Quarter is the heart and culture of New Orleans, filled with diverse architecture, vibrant nightlife, and colorful buildings.
It is one of NOLA's neighborhoods that merges the new with the old. There are French Markets, trendy boutiques, and bars with custom cocktails mixed with antique stores and quaint restaurants packing big flavor!
At dusk, the French Quarter is filled with swallows soaring above the fortunetellers, street performers, and local artists who display their talents in Jackson Square. The sunset colors are cast over the cream-colored walls of St. Louis Cathedral.
New Orleans is also one of America's most haunted cities. In the French Quarter, you will see ghost tours parade past spooky spots like Madame LaLaurie’s mansion.
On Bourbon Street, you can grab a famous 'Hurricane' drink to-go and take your partying curbside. At night the neighborhood is alive with pulsing music, flickering neon lights, and chatter for an inimitable experience.
With a handful of tours and activities, there are so many things to do in this incredible place you won't want to miss out on. Did we mention Mardi Gras?!
