About this activity

Let your local guide show you one of America’s oldest and most unique living neighborhoods. Follow in the footsteps of historic figures as you stroll along the Mighty Mississippi and Jackson Square. Discover the banquettes (sidewalks) of quaint streets named after European saints and sinners. Find out how the city was founded and what it has to offer today.

Learn about the Creoles on this tour through the original city and visit the oldest building in the Mississippi Valley, the Old Ursuline Convent, and the St. Mary’s Church that has served as a center of worship for the French, Spanish, African American, German, Irish and Italian communities.
