8 days in New Orleans Itinerary

Known for its Creole cuisine, rich musical tradition, and nearby swamps and plantations, New Orleans is one of the nation's oldest cities.

Escape the urban bustle at Kayak-iti-Yat Original Kayaking Tours of New Orleans and Chalmette National Historical Park. Give yourself a bit of retail therapy at Royal Street and Anatolian Silver. And it doesn't end there: get to know the fascinating history of Garden District, make a trip to French Quarter, see the interesting displays at Blaine Kern's Mardi Gras World, and go on a hair-raising tour with a ghost and vampire tour.
