French Quarter
While Bourbon Street is fun, make sure you venture out. One of the best things you can do in New Orleans is explore the French Quarter, even without a destination in mind. As you can see, it's beautiful during the day—but it's also particularly magical at night.
Jackson Square
Known as one of New Orleans’ most recognizable landmarks, Jackson Square is a National Historic Landmark nestled in the center of the French Quarter. The 2.5-acre space welcomes over 2 million visitors and locals each year and hosts a number of city events and celebrations, weddings and photography sessions. Jackson Square has even served as a backdrop in a number of popular feature films and television shows. The landmark earns its name for the bronze statue of Andrew Jackson located in the center of the square.

Bourbon Street
Noisy. Raucous. Nocturnal. For many New Orleans visitors, Bourbon Street embodies the life of a party town. The street is lit by neon lights, throbbing with music and decorated by beads and balconies. Named for a royal family in France and not the amber-colored alcohol, Bourbon Street has become a place for revelry of all sorts.
Steamboat NATCHEZ
The Steamboat Natchez is a classic paddlewheel riverboat offering a nostalgic journey along the Mississippi River in New Orleans. Known for its iconic red paddlewheel, live jazz music, and sweeping views of the city skyline, the Natchez provides a unique glimpse into the romance and charm of 19th-century river travel. Whether you’re enjoying a daytime cruise or a dinner voyage, it’s a quintessential New Orleans experience.
Preservation Hall
Situated in the heart of the French Quarter on St. Peter Street, the Preservation Hall venue presents intimate, acoustic New Orleans Jazz concerts over 360 nights a year featuring ensembles from a current collective of 50+ local master practitioners.
St Charles Street Car Tours
Not only are streetcars a great way to travel around the city, they're also a popular tourist destination. All the lines have traditional streetcars, the most traditional is the St. Charles Avenue line. As beautiful and historic as the Uptown neighborhoods that it travels through, this line looks much as it did in 1923. The original streetcars still roll on this line, while they were refurbished in the 1980's, they still have the antique mahogany seats, brass fittings and exposed light bulbs from an era before plastic seats and aluminum rails.
Of course, whichever line you ride, you'll have a distinctly New Orleans experience
