You will want to experience this famous city as much as possible, but you will find there is so much to see and do! Our 45 minute Highlights of the Marigny tour will give you just the right amount of time to see the most important sites and get recommendations from your guide. The Marigny Triangle is colorful, musical, and filled with the history and culture of New Orleans. This tour is perfect for anyone who wants a "short list" of all the best places to go to eat, shop, and hear music or for anyone who is short on time but wants to get the most out of their New Orleans experience. It is also great for travelers who have taken a more typical 2-3 hour of the city and now just want a quick overview of this particular neighborhood.
Meet in front of the New Orleans Jazz Museum at the US Mint. Once a fort on the edge of the city, your guide will give you a quick rundown of the history of the area before you set off on your whirlwind tour!
