Private New Orleans French Quarter Food and History Walking Tour
Overview
Experience New Orleans through two things that define the city: its food and its history. On this private 3-hour walking tour, explore the French Quarter while tasting classic dishes born from the city's remarkable mix of cultures and traditions. Visit a carefully selected mix of celebrated restaurants and neighborhood favorites for generous tastes of New Orleans specialties. Between stops, discover the people, events, architecture, and traditions behind what you're eating—and how New Orleans became unlike any other American city. This is more than a food crawl: it is a relaxed, personal introduction to the French Quarter through the stories and flavors that shaped it. Please share dietary restrictions when booking. With advance notice, vegetarian substitutions may be possible, but options can be limited. This tour regularly features New Orleans dishes containing pork, seafood, or both, and substitutions cannot be guaranteed without advance notice.
