Things to do in New Orleans

The most popular place for tourists to check out is the French Quarter. Teaming with restaurants and bars, the French quarter also is a great sightseeing spot with historic sites such as Jackson Square. Take a street car tour through the city to get an initial view, then pick where you want to get your fill of creole food and music after talking to some locals. A riverboat cruise along the Mississippi can give you all three: a great tour, great music, and great food. Bourbon Street is where the bar scene is the most prominent. Outside New Orleans, the swamp tours are mysteriously beautiful and somewhat of a thrill at times when a gator swims up to your boat. Also outside the main city, you can take tours of the grand plantations that are now historical sites. Use this easy guide to plan a weekend trip to New Orleans. If you happen to be traveling to New Orleans with seniors, we recommend these five fantastic activities that they are sure to enjoy.

New Orleans Accommodations

New Orleans vacation rentals range from single room apartments to luxury mansions. Make sure you check out what festivals are happening during your stay because that can drastically change the price and availability of accommodations and flights. Also, check the safety of the location you book a rental in, as not all places are good for children, or get a little more risky at night. Someone traveling for the New Orleans night scene will want to stay in a different spot than a family doing a little site seeing tour, but Tripping has places for both!
