Travel through three centuries of history, legends and romance as you encounter "The City That Care Forgot!" Absorb the sights and sounds of the famous French Quarter and historic Jackson Square, home of the Cabildo and Presbytere Museums. Visit one of our historic cemeteries ("Cities of the Dead") and learn about this unique above ground burial system. Marvel at stories of voodoo and piracy on Bayou St. John, the waterway used by Jean Lafitte and his band of pirates, as we make our way to the shores of Lake Pontchartrain. Follow the path of the St. Charles Avenue streetcar past homes of former Kings & Queens of Mardi Gras, stately mansions and the world-famous, exclusive Garden District. (Cemetery is closed on some holidays.)
