What To Expect

City Park

City Park is as magical and unique as the city of New Orleans. The 1,300-acre outdoor oasis has enchanted New Orleanians since 1854, making it one of the nation’s oldest urban parks. Each year, millions of visitors stroll under the same historic oaks and picturesque moss canopies that served as the backdrop for dances, concerts and even gentlemanly duels or “affaires d’honneur” for generations.

Hurricane Katrina Memorial

On the former site of Charity Hospital’s paupers’ field, this ominous but oddly affecting circle of tombs holds the bodies of 85 unclaimed victims of the 2005 levee failures and the names of others who perished. It’s an unfussy place that’s easily missed, the better for contemplative solitude, perhaps. Surrounded by a storm-shaped series of pathways, the memorial does its duty in giving one substantial pause.

Cancellation Policy

For a full refund, cancel at least 24 hours before the scheduled departure time.

Henry was a great guide, we had a lot of fun and learned a ton! There was the cool ghost stuff and then also a lot of fascinating information about New Orleans burial customs.

It really was a bad tour experience. I base that on the 3 other tours I took in New Orleans this past weekend. I was so ready to get back to our meet up point an hour in to said tour....to make matters worse the guide kept us longer than planned tour time. It was hard to follow the guides conversation. It seemed not well rehearsed. It was not engaging or memorable even though the young man was perfectly lovely, he was not well versed in the subject matter as I would have preferred.

We were pretty excited about this tour, but unfortunately it didn’t live up to our hope or expectation. Started with getting a call 2 hours before tour start time to confirm our tickets and we were asked to arrive at 4:30. We arrived only to find no one. Guide showed up 5 till 5:00. Why ask us to be there early if the tour guide isn’t there? Tour said 3 cemeteries, it was one. The second cemetery stop was a memorial in between 2 cemeteries, neither which we entered. The memorial had unnamed graves in a mausoleum style configuration. I wouldn’t recommend this tour. Disappointing.
