Overview

This tour begins with a ride to the famous French Quarter, boasting nearly 300 years of history. Your fully licensed tour guide will take you to popular highlights in "the Quarter" and the Treme, including Jackson Square, St. Louis Cathedral, Congo Square, along with some lesser-known gems, all while telling you fascinating stories about your surroundings.

We then pedal to the charming oak-lined Garden District, stopping to admire the lavish historic homes of New Orleans, and talk about some of their most famous occupants. History, architecture, celebrities; this neighborhood has it all!

Tour length: Approximately 9 mi.

Paved Paradise Tours is a small, owner-operated company that provides a truly local perspective. When you ride with us you are riding with one of the owners, ensuring that your experience is of the highest quality.
