New Orleans Walking Tours
Visit these parks and more on a self-guided audio tour.
Ghosts, Graves & the Voodoo Queen
Above-ground tombs, voodoo rituals, and the hairdresser who ran the city's underground — the REAL history behind the ghost tour hokum. Walk from a cemetery where 100,000 bodies share one city block through the birthplace of jazz, past a cathedral that will not stop burning down, and into the most infamous house in New Orleans.
Pirates, Presidents & Purchase Receipts
How a pirate, a general, and a fifteen million dollar receipt changed the shape of America — all in one swamp. Walk through the French Quarter (which is actually Spanish) and discover the Louisiana Purchase, the battle fought after the war ended, the plot to rescue Napoleon, and why Mardi Gras colors may come from a Russian coat of arms.
The French Quarter Cheat Code
Beignets, Baronesses & Eight Blocks of Trouble. A woman got shot four times by her father-in-law and built the most famous apartments in the South with eight fingers. A shoemaker challenged segregation sixty-three years before Rosa Parks. A cook chained to a stove set a fire so someone would finally look upstairs. Eight stops through the French Quarter — eighty percent true, twenty percent invented.
