About New Orleans
We’re headed to “The Big Easy”. Join us this August for a cultural experience focused on food, music, and celebration in NOLA! New Orleans is world-renowned for its distinctive music, Creole cuisine, unique dialects, and its annual celebrations and festivals, most notably Mardi Gras¹. The historic heart of the city is the French Quarter, known for its French and Spanish Creole architecture and vibrant nightlife along Bourbon Street. The city has been described as the “most unique” in the United States.
On a first-time visit to New Orleans, there’s so much to see and do. Beignets at Café du Monde, craft cocktails and traditional food, streetcar rides, and ferry cruises, plus a trip to the park are just a few of the highlights we have picked out for first-time travelers.²
