New Orleans Garden District and Cemetery Biking Tour

Overview
We begin with a tour of St. Joseph’s Cemetery, where your guide will tell you of the unique burial traditions and celebrations in our “cities of the dead”. You'll then roll under the shade of the live oak trees in the Garden District. You will marvel at the beautiful mansions owned by wealthy merchants of the past and celebrities of the present. Your guide will tell you stories of not only the residents but also the people who built these amazing houses.

Time permitting, we will cruise through the Irish Channel to see its colorful shotgun houses, neighborhood restaurants, and hole-in-the-wall po’boy shops.

Paved Paradise Tours is a small, owner-operated company that provides a truly local perspective. When you ride with us you are riding with one of the owners, ensuring that your experience is of the highest quality. See the city through the eyes of someone who loves what they do, loves the City of New Orleans, and wants you to love it too.

Sarah was so knowledgeable! She was super friendly, engaging and gave a fantastic tour. We only ended up biking a little over 2.5 miles so it’s not too strenuous and you learn a ton. Definitely recommend!
