Take a scenic and super fun carriage tour through old New Orleans, and see how people used to travel around the city, way before Uber.

Your enthusiastic guide will give you nuggets of history along the way, and you'll also learn about the unique architecture of the French Quarter. This lively area is the city's historic heart, famous for its crazy nightlife, cast-iron balconies and Bourbon Street's jazz clubs.

Away from the bustling Cajun eateries and rowdy bars, soak up the charm of quieter streets and local markets. Cruise through the famous Jackson Square, home to many hopeful entertainers looking for their Big Easy break.

Then step inside Saint Louis Cemetery No. 1, and see the final resting place of the Voodoo Queen Marie Laveau, as well as other late famous local figures.
