Itinerary
This is a typical itinerary for this product

Stop At: St. Louis Cemetery No. 3, 3421 Esplanade Ave, New Orleans, LA 70119-2902

Landmark cemetery established in 1854 with elaborate above-ground mausoleums, tombs & gravestones.

Duration: 20 minutes

Stop At: Hurricane Katrina Memorial, 5056 Canal St, New Orleans, LA 70119-5835

On the former site of Charity Hospital’s paupers’ field, this ominous but oddly affecting circle of tombs holds the bodies of 85 unclaimed victims of the 2005 levee failures and the names of others who perished. It’s an unfussy place that’s easily missed, the better for contemplative solitude, perhaps. Surrounded by a storm-shaped series of pathways, the memorial does its duty in giving one substantial pause.

Duration: 30 minutes

Stop At: Holt Cemetery, Rosedale Dr, New Orleans, LA 70124

A haunting, yet lovingly hand-hewn potters' field full of graves that flood with each heavy rain. ... In a city that can often feel like one giant necropolis, New Orleans’ Holt Cemetery sets itself apart in that 99 percent of its dead are buried below ground – despite a legendarily high water table

Duration: 20 minutes

Pass By: City Park, City Park, New Orleans, Louisiana

City Park is as magical and unique as the city of New Orleans. The 1,300-acre outdoor oasis has enchanted New Orleanians since 1854, making it one of the nation’s oldest urban parks. Each year, millions of visitors stroll under the same historic oaks and picturesque moss canopies that served as the backdrop for dances, concerts and even gentlemanly duels or “affaires d’honneur” for generations.

Stop At: Mid City Yacht Club, 440 S St Patrick St, New Orleans, LA 70119, USA

The Mid City Yacht Club is a neighborhood bar built in a building that was established as Savaggio’s Grocery store in the mid-1930’s. It just so happened that a friend of the bar owners, Mark Melan, was cruising the neighborhood in a pirogue during hurricane Katrina picking up people from their houses in the days following the storm. As he was riding by the bar in his boat, he jested that “they should name that place the Mid City Yacht Club.”
