Operated by Gray Line New Orleans.
Your unique tour winds through the charming FRENCH QUARTER, America’s oldest neighborhood, as well as the FAUBOURG MARIGNY, one of the earliest Creole suburbs and renowned for its striking architecture and historic sites.
You’ll also visit the childhood neighborhood of New Orleans musical ambassador, jazz legend LOUIS ARMSTRONG, and see the actual buildings where he got his professional start on the road to stardom.
Visit the SHRINE OF ST. ROCH, located in ST. ROCH CEMETERY, considered the city’s most interesting. The shrine is a replica of a Gothic chapel and contains unique “thanks offerings” called ex-votoes, which have to be seen to be believed, as they are replicas of whole persons or parts of bodies that were healed! Visitors from around the world once made pilgrimages to this sacred shrine.
