We will be touring all around the Historic French Quarter and 2 historic surrounding neighborhoods of the Marigny and Treme. We will talk about the rich cultures, people and traditions of these neighborhoods that date back to the 1700's. From our beginnings as a Native American trading post to a raughty French penal colony to the rich African culture of music and Mardi Gras revelry, we will cover it all! 300 years of Creole history from a 6th generation New Orleanian! We start at the Mississippi river and take our time strolling through the French Quarter and chronologically move from the Quarter to the Treme and Marigny. Stops such as Jackson square, Congo square, St. Augustine Church and Frenchmen street and on to the French Market. Mid tour we will grab a bite to eat at a local restaurant and continue on to the most historically significant stops in the French quarter and surrounding neighborhoods.

From: $0.00

Q&A

Q: What's the age limit for kids on this tour?

A: There's no age limit for this tour, but I'd say it's best suited for kids 10 and up. Leanne is great at keeping younger audiences engaged, but some of the history might be a bit too heavy for younger kids. You might want to double-check with her directly if you’re planning to bring someone younger!

Q: Is it easy to park near the starting point of the tour?

A: Parking can be tricky in the French Quarter, especially during peak tourist season. I'd recommend using a parking app to find the nearest lots, which can cost around $20-$30 for the day. Alternatively, consider using rideshare services if you don’t want the hassle of parking!

Q: What should I wear for this walking tour in the summer?

A: Definitely wear comfortable shoes since you'll be doing quite a bit of walking. Lightweight, breathable clothing is key—New Orleans can get hot and humid! Don’t forget a hat and sunscreen, and maybe bring a refillable water bottle to stay hydrated.

Thinking about gifting this French Quarter tour for my parents!

I really want to give my folks a unique experience for their anniversary, and this private walking tour looks awesome! I love that it covers the history of the French Quarter and the other neighborhoods. Plus, I’ve heard Leanne is super knowledgeable. Anyone done this tour? Any tips on what to expect?

Just got back from the French Quarter tour, and it was incredible!

I just finished the private French Quarter walking tour with Leanne, and wow, what an experience! We hit all the major spots like Jackson Square and got to sample some local food halfway through. She shared so many cool stories about the culture and history. Highly recommend this for anyone visiting New Orleans!
