NEW ORLEANS
ELEVATED EXPEREINCES GUIDE
OVERVIEW
You like jazz? Nowhere does it better than New Orleans, the birthplace of jazz music. The melting pot of the South, this city is known for its unique culture, energy, food, and music history. The French Quarter is home to famous landmarks and authentic cajun meals, with Bourbon Street slicing right down the center with year-round Parades and floats. For the brave of heart, this city is also well known for Ghost Tours. Many American History Museums populate the area, as well. For first-time visitors, New Orleans can feel like a passport-worthy foreign experience, and a home away from home at the same time.
