It’s not called “The Big Easy” for nothing. New Orleans is a city like no other in the United States. It’s<br />
a byword for fun and games, a place that enjoys life, and its unbreakable community spirit. Sitting<br />
close to the mouth of the mighty Mississippi River, you won’t forget your visit to NOLA.<br />
Getting In & Around<br />
You can fly direct to Louis Armstrong New Orleans<br />
International Airport from London, but the city is also on<br />
cruise ship routes that dip into the Gulf of Mexico. Once<br />
you’ve arrived, getting to the best sights in the city is just<br />
a bus ride or walk away.<br />
Things to Do & See<br />
If you’ve heard of New Orleans,<br />
you’ve probably heard of Mardi<br />
Gras too. Translated to “Fat<br />
Tuesday” from French,<br />
it’s a time when the city<br />
goes carnival mad with<br />
parades, loud brassy<br />
music, partying, and<br />
dancing.<br />
The city is famous for<br />
its French colonial past,<br />
which is reflected in the<br />
Creole-style architecture. You<br />
can take it all in with companies<br />
like New Orleans Top Tours that focus<br />
on the French Quarter and its fascinating yet grisly past.<br />
