The mystery of New Orleans is everywhere in Lafayette Cemetery - wander between rows of above ground tombs and be transported to a place far from the present.
Order a drive-through Daquiri
Yes, that's right. You can order cocktails "to go" in New Orleans. Of course, we encourage everyone to do this in moderation.
Cool off with a New Orleans snowball
Snowballs are New Orleans' unique take on a cool summer treat. Hansen's Sno-Bliz is one of, if not the, most popular spots to order one. The list of flavors is long - we like chocolate and condensed milk.
Tour Longue Vue House and Gardens
A Colonial Revival Estate built by Sears and Roebuck heir Edith Stern, Longue Vue is a must see, and its gardens are a great place to pretend you're a Southern belle.
Crash the Orpheuscapade
Harry Connick Jr. and the rest of his Krewe host the Orpheuscapade - a wild swinging bash with fantastic live music.
Go to Jazzfest
An incredible 10 days of music and culture. Too many big names to mention. Incredible food. Enough culture to last you a whole year.
