What your day looks like

Discover New Orleans on our open-top tourist bus. Hop on and hop off at any of our carefully located stops to see the best of the always fascinating Crescent City. Visit the French Market, Jackson Square, Bourbon Street, the Garden District and so much more in the beautiful and brilliant birthplace of jazz! It’s the perfect way to discover New Orleans and with a live guide on the bus, you'll learn all about the city as you go. Explore New Orleans from the comfort of our big red open-top bus. You’ll be able to see the sights of the city as you pass by and hop on and hop at whatever stops you choose to take a closer look. New Orleans is an American city like no other, largely due to its French and Spanish heritage. From its architecture to its music, it’s always been different. Visit lively Canal Street for both culture and shopping and make sure you check out the passing streetcars. To see some of the city’s famed elegance, head for the Garden District. You’ll have fun deciding which of the amazing houses you’d like to live in. That’s just a beginning to what you can see in New Orleans. The free discount booklet that comes with your ticket will help you enjoy some of the city’s best attractions and save money at the same time. Please note City Sightseeing New Orleans have advised that they have temporarily adjusted their route due to construction works taking place. Stops 12 - 15 have been relocated. The Garden District Walking Tour (included in the 2-day and 3-day tickets) will now depart from Stop 11.

2024-05-12 5.00 / 5

Best way to visit New Orleans and sightsee. We took the cemetery tour at one of the stops and really enjoyed this. Later we got off and enjoyed a early dinner and took a taxi back to the hotel since the hop on hop off was no longer running.

2022-02-25 5.00 / 5

Great way to see the city and determine where you want to hop off and explore some more. Guides were knowledgeable and entertaining.

Always love a hop on hop off tour to give you a good overview of the destination. The tour of the French Quarter was especially good with our guide Sparkle.
