Welcome to the Historic America & UCPlaces audio walking tour of New Orleans’ Garden District - the Crescent City’s fanciest neighborhood. This tour will lead you on a trek through the heart of New Orleans’ most exclusive enclave – an upscale neighborhood known for its old world charm, opulent mansions, and engrossing history filled with one-of-a-kind characters found only in the Big Easy. On our walk together, you’ll stroll past spreading oak trees and along shaded lanes, explore quirky homes with outlandish stories, and encounter a cemetery which inspired one of the greatest horror trilogies in American literary history. Along the way you’ll see a spot where secret voodoo rituals were performed, hear the poetry of Walt Whitman, and visit a house named for the most famous pair of brothers in NFL history. We can’t wait to share this neighborhood with you! To get started, make your way to the address 2727 Prytania Street. I’ll meet you there.
