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.
