Overview

Home to historic mansions, hauntingly beautiful cemeteries and giant oak trees, this district is the romance of New Orleans. During walks between stops, hear about culture, traditions, architecture and have history fun! (PLEASE NOTE: currently, the cemetery is closed for repairs- we'll still be able to see into the cemetery and discuss the history. I supplement the walking tour to see some of the mansions and historic homes the Garden District is known for). Then it's on to the food at 3 stops- a neighborhood favorite for a taste of our Italian-Creole roots, hear Cajun history through sausage and finish with the Creole history of chicory over cafe au lait and filled beignets! All curated food, cocktails/beer, taxes & tip are included in your ticket so you can sit back and relax! Will accommodate allergies/dietary restrictions if told in advance. Menu & food stops are subject to availability. Other things to note: Tour is all weather, wear comfy walking shoes & bring a face mask.

Meeting points

Meet at the corner of Washington Ave & Coliseum St., the corner across from Commander's Palace, in front of the cemetery wall.

A true local and amazing food

Published on Aug, 2024

My wife and mother-in-law had a great tour. A true local that make sure they ate amazing food. Basically a 3 course meal with a cocktail and a coffee. Would highly recommend!

Delicious food and wonderful walking tour!

Published on Jun, 2021

Going to the cafes and restaurants! Everything went so smoothly. Michele was very informative and friendly.

Great historical walking tour and magnificent food

Published on May, 2019

We had an amazing and informative time with Michelle. We started off at Lafayette Cemetery with an introduction to New Orleans burial customs and then a delightful walk thru the Lower Garden District, looking at the typical architecture and some movie star gazing thrown in for good measure. Then we got started with the food tour portion of the event, beginning with some Eggplant Napoleon (who knew Napoleon was a fan of eggplant?)- and some great local beers. Then off to Magazine Street for some gourmet hot dogs, and more cocktails. We had a great time learning about Michelle’s New Orleans. We were in town for Jazz Fest and exchanged many stories about our experiences. Then off to a cool coffee shop-bar-restaurant where we had some terrific beignets, cafe au lait and of course, more cocktails. After some great suggestions for some dive bars for local color, we parted ways with Michelle. We would highly recommend and would book with Michelle, any time, any place.

Garden District Tour

Published on Dec, 2018

My husband and I did the Garden District Tour with Michelle and it was AWESOME! She is so knowledgeable about all things NOLA, having grown up here. She even went out of her way to tell us about other great spots around town for the rest of our stay. This tour was fantastic and the food/restaurants were perfect and just what we were looking for. Michelle does a great job tailoring the tour to your taste. I highly recommend this tour to anyone!

New Orleans...Eat Like a Local walking food tour

Published on Nov, 2018

Michelle was personable and knowledgeable. She’s a local who knows the food scene. It was more than a tasting. We visited 3 places and had a great selection of local fare.
