Itinerary

  • Garden District (Pass By)

    Dubbed the ā€œGarden Districtā€ for its over the top gardens, this part of New Orleans is noted for breathtaking scenery. Visitors are enthralled by the elegant mansions and picturesque setting that promises a relaxing, memorable experience. Many celebrities live in the Garden District so youā€™ll never know just who youā€™ll see out in their yards or walking their dogs. Americaā€™s sweetheart Sandra Bullock has a house blocks off St. Charles Avenue. New Orleans native, The Big Lebowski actor John Goodman calls this historic neighborhood home, as well as our very own New Orleans Saint, Drew Brees. Nicolas Cage is seen around as well. Weā€™ll see the homes featured in the novels of Anne Rice and countless films. Weā€™ll take you to see the more famous, or infamous places the residents of the Garden District call home. Weā€™ll tour the oak-lined streets, and youā€™ll sit feet from some of the most historic mansions in all of America.

  • Treme (Pass By)

    The Treme (pronounced ā€œTreh-MAYā€; historically Faubourg TremĆ©) is the birthplace of Jazz. The Treme is the spiritual home of our city. Congo Square in Armstrong Park anchors this historic neighborhood where the streets have more history than some books. The Treme has been a legendary influence of New Orleans culture. So many significant events have taken places on these back streets of Treme.

  • French Quarter (Pass By)

    For hundreds of years, people have found a sense of allure about the French Quarter, and we understand why youā€™re here. From the comfort of your air-conditioned seat, youā€™ll take a drive down Decatur Street, one of the most scenic in the area. You'll pass through the famous French Market to Esplanade Avenue as you hear the history of this 300-year-old neighborhood.

  • St. Louis Cemetery No. 3

    No tour in New Orleans would be complete without seeing one of our famed cemeteries. While the dead are six feet under in your town they rise above in ours. Our guides tell the stories that haunt the Crescent City. Weā€™ll show you where some of our most fabled residents call their eternal home. The tour group gets out and takes a walk so you can see up close and personal that New Orleans has a wholly different relationship with our dead than anywhere else in the country.

    20 minutes

  • New Orleans City Park

    City Park is one of New Orleans best attractions. A huge, luscious space, City Park is a stunning expanse of sights. 1.5 times larger than New Yorkā€™s Central Park, City Park hosts the New Orleans Museum of Art, a carousel, and duck ponds, as well as some of New Orleansā€™ best wildlife. Located in the heart of Mid City, City Park is also where the Voodoo Music Festival is held annually. Weā€™ll take a ride through the winding streets where mossy oaks line the streets, while birds sit on the branches contemplating the day. The 1,300-acre outdoor oasis has enchanted New Orleanians since 1854 and millions annually stroll under the picturesque moss canopies.

    20 minutes

  • Musicianā€™s Village (Pass By)

    Being New Orleans natives, this part of the tour really hits home for us. When Hurricane Katrina struck New Orleans, it devastated our city. Weā€™ve spent over a decade working hard to rebuild and show the world weā€™re better than ever. VIP New Orleans Bus Tours will show you how far we've come back and what we are doing to make sure this never happens again. Our guides take you to see Musician's Village to see some of the success stories that continue to define the strength of our residents. Too far to walk from the French Quarter, weā€™ll take you on a ride that only the locals know about. Youā€™ll get a chance to really experience what life in New Orleans can be like.

  • Lake Pontchartrain (Pass By)

    Weā€™ll take you to see one of the biggest lakes in the country, our very own lake Pontchartrain. Our lake is a body of water so big, the bridge to cross it is bigger than most municipal areas and is even in the Guinness Book of World Records! Hereā€™s a dirty little secret: itā€™s really not even a lake, itā€™s a giant estuary, that happens to feed into the Gulf of Mexico, and just so happens to be an easy swim of 630 miles. Lake Pontchartrain is one of the most popular destinations for Louisiana residents in the summer. Boats are out for miles, and countless fishermen troll the waters looking for the catch of the day.

  • Caesars Superdome (Pass By)

    View one of the largest indoor stadiums in the US. Did you know that the location for the Superdome was originally the Girard Street Cemetery?

  • French Market (Pass By)

    Pass by the most famous outdoor market in America. Fresh produce, souvenirs, and other oddities can be found in this magical marketplace.

  • N/A

    Enjoy a break in City Park at Cafe DuMonde and try some cafe au lait and beignets (French donuts) if you need a snack. Restrooms available at this stop.

Published on Jan, 2025

Our driver Henry was very knowledgeable and gave us a lot of information that I was unaware off. Highly recommend this tour.

Must-Do NOLA tour

Published on Jan, 2025

Tyra was THE BEST!! She safely drove us all over the city, and did a great job as a driver and tour guide. She was pleasant and helpful from the first moment we met her. What really made this tour stand out was her personal stories about her experiences as a life-long New Orleanian- the good, and bad. Tyra gave our group a 2 hour NOLA education that I would recommend to anyone.

We took the 2 hour Bus tour of New Orleans. The price was right and 2 hours just enough. Justin was our tour guide, he was knowledgeable and has a sense humor!

Best tour and tour guide Henry! Worth it

Published on Jan, 2025

Tour was great. They arrange for pick up at your hotel. A reasonably size group. In two hours, we saw all the various parts of the city with great narration from our guide Henry. We had stops at the cemetery and Cafe. We learned a lot, and Henry was informative, entertaining and clearly loves his city. He was the best.!!!
