New Orleans Homes of the Rich and Famous Tour of the Garden District

Overview

Join us for this 2-hour walking tour of New Orleans Historic Garden District - home to New Orleans Rich & Famous. Our original Garden District walking tour combines history, architecture, unique plant life, celebrity homes, movie & TV sites, and local legends (and maybe a ghost or 2) in what was the American sector of our city.

We are the original walking tour company in New Orleans with over 26 years of presenting the history and culture of this unique section of our city. This elegant neighborhood was built in the 1800s to rival the beauty and splendor of the French Quarter. It is no wonder that this scenic neighborhood has become the backdrop for many movies and television productions.

See the homes of the rich and famous, including the former homes of Anne Rice, John Goodman, and Nicholas Cage, to name a few. Hear the latest celebrity gossip and scandals. Don't be surprised if you walk upon an ongoing filming of popular TV show or movie.

Bob did an amazing tour. We were on New Orleans for only 3 days and definitely wanted to see the Gatden Distriat. He was very knowledgeable and answered all of our questions. Great tour and highly recommend!

Bob is incredibly knowledgeable — his 45 years living in Nola allows him to give us not only the historical background but also cultural influences that goes into the architecture and the owners inside it. The pace was very relaxing and I walked away learning a lot! Favorite house was the Henry Howard’s Robinson house. Wishing Bob all the best :D
