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!
Peek inside the gates of Lafayette Cemetery #1, one of New Orleans’ most famous above-ground cemeteries. The cemetery has been closed to the public since 2019 but the gates are nice and wide so your guide can show you this lovely historical and sacred place.
