The unforgettable catastrophe in New Orleans has left reminders of that fateful day in August of 2005. You may never be able to comprehend what everyone may have endured, but you can surely witness the remnants of the destruction. Take a guided tour through the various affected sites and educate yourself about the effects and precautions. The Grey Line employees, who themselves lost several possessions to the disaster, conduct the tour keeping in mind the sentiments of the citizens.

Due to the damage caused by Hurricane Katrina, the following description may no longer be accurate. Please consider this when making your travel plans.

Although John James Audubon, America's best known ornithologist, lived only for a short time in New Orleans, both the park and zoo bear his name. A fun way to arrive at the Audubon Zoo is aboard this sternwheeler boat. This river vessel, with its sleek contemporary lines, can easily accommodate up to 300 guests. Should your travels not include the zoo, there is an on-board gallery and full service catering available, making this the ideal party boat for an afternoon with friends. You may purchase tickets with or without zoo and aquarium admission but combination tickets will save you money.

Directly across the Mississippi River from the French Quarter and Canal Street is the West Bank neighborhood of Algiers. A free shuttle will take you to the place where Mardi Gras is created. You may catch the artists and builders of the world famous floats hard at work. There is a gift shop where you can buy Carnival memorabilia, so you can say you have seen Mardi Gras and have something to show for it. This is a fun trip for children, as a chest full of costumes affords them the chance to dress in true Carnival style. Tickets are $8.50 and include cake and coffee. Hours will vary around Mardi Gras.

Marie Laveau's House of Voodoo

Due to the damage caused by Hurricane Katrina, the following description may no longer be accurate. Please consider this when making your travel plans.

In the heart of the French Quarter, this voodoo shop doubles as a shrine to the famous Voodoo Queen -- Marie Laveau -- of New Orleans. Psychic readings, voodoo dolls, statues and altars are the real thing, not found in other touristy spots. Whether you come to the Big Easy for business or pleasure, you can find an original souvenir and even learn a little something of the black arts from around the world at Marie Laveau's House of Voodoo.

Saint Louis Cemetery Number One


Oldest cemetery in the city
3421 Esplanade Ave
New Orleans, LA 70119
+1 504 482 5065
http://www.archdiocese-no.org
Due to the damage caused by Hurricane Katrina, the following description may no longer be accurate. Please consider this when making your travel plans.

Located on the boundary of the French Quarter, this is the oldest cemetery in the city. The above ground burial practices are typical of swampy New Orleans, where early settlers soon discovered that coffins buried in the ground would float to the surface after a hard rain. There are many ornate family tombs and vaults, but for safety reasons you are encouraged to visit these attractions with a tour group. Admission is free.

Voo-doo No. 2
3421 Esplanade Ave
New Orleans, LA 70119
+1 504 482 5065
http://www.archdiocese-no.org
Due to the damage caused by Hurricane Katrina, the following description may no longer be accurate. Please consider this when making your travel plans.

Second to the original St. Louis Cemetery, number two was built in the 1820's after the population in New Orleans increased as well as the outbreaks of yellow fever. This above-ground addition is located two blocks from Number One, both owned, operated and maintained by the Archdiocese of New Orleans. Tours are recommended, due to the unsafe surrounding neighborhood.
