Description

Famous for its beads and beers on Bourbon Street, the reality of the Vieux Carre far surpasses its Mardi Gras reputation.

In a city that dazzles the visitor with its remarkable architecture, the French Quarter is certainly a standout, with Spanish, Caribbean, French, and American influences.

It's also a district full of characters: from musicians to magicians to voodoo practitioners.

Join Free Tours by Foot on our French Quarter Tour, as we wander the historic streets and alleys of the Old District, passing by the street theater, peeking into historic churches, and discovering hidden courtyards, all while entertaining you with stories of authors, and artists, priests, and pirates.
