Free Tour of the French Quarter
The tour lasts 1 hour and 30 minutes
Available in English
Description
New Orleans was founded in 1718 on the site of what is now the famed French Quarter. The French Quarter delights travelers with its romantic courtyards, plant draped galleries, and old world architecture.
We begin the tour in Jackson Square(if the Square is closed, we meet at the Decatur Street gate)and end near the French Market. We will discuss the French, Spanish, and American periods, architecture, literary history, immigration patterns, indigenous populations, and so much more. Come, take a stroll with me back in time and learn what makes New Orleans one of the premier cities in the world.
*The city doesn't allow dogs in Jackson Square so no dogs allowed *

I have a Master's degree in history and have been a licensed tour guide in New Orleans for 20 years. I love showing people around my city. I want them to fall in love with New Orleans as much as I have.
I'm also an artist. If you are looking for a souvenir, I created an adult coloring book of the French Quarter. It is on Amazon under my name, Sandy Hester.
