New Orleans is a city with that certain je ne sais quoi— full of history, architecture, and culture, yet somewhat mysterious. This narrated tour takes you to see the sights that make the Crescent City unique, including the jazzy street scene of the French Quarter, the ancient oak trees of Esplanade Avenue, and St. Charles Avenue's stately homes.
