Garden District Tour During Our Girls’ Weekend in New Orleans
We had an outstanding tour of the Garden District during our girls’ weekend in New Orleans. It rained during most of the tour but we were ready with our rain gear and enjoyed the experience very much. The tour guide was excellent and knowledgeable. We learned a lot about the history of New Orleans and the Garden District. We took a street car to get to the start of the tour which was also fun. Fabulous shopping and great restaurant in the area as well…
