Forever French! A Private Small Group French Quarter Tour In French!

Overview
Meet us in front of the Cathedral – Basilica of St. Louis, King of France, the oldest Catholic Cathedral in continual use in the United States, for a 2 hour French language walking tour of the Vieux Carre, the “Old Square”, known as the French Quarter.

Take a walk with us through Jackson Square, originally the Place d’Armes, designed in the image of Paris’ oldest planned square, the Place de Vosges. Hear the story of the Baroness Pontalba and her magnificent Pontalba Buildings.

Walk down Chartres Street to the Ursuline Convent, the oldest remaining French Colonial structure in the United States and discover the Order’s impact on the colony’s early days all the way up to the present. On to Frenchmen Street, where we will relive the French Insurrection of 1768 when French creole merchants and planters rebelled against the imposition of Spanish rule and whose leaders were later executed on this spot by Spanish firing squad.
