IMGL is pleased to recommended some great places to see and things to do while you're visiting New Orleans. Please see below for our recommendations!

Restaurants

Sights

Other Things to Do:

• Visit the art galleries on Royal Street (Sutton Galleries is highly recommended)
• Stroll through the antique shops along Magazine street
  • Magazine Street is located in the Garden District.  This street is home to lots of antique shops as well as some galleries and gift shops.  It’s a highly walkable area with lots to look at.
• Check out the live music on Frenchmen Street
• Take an epic streetcar ride
  • Try hopping on at Canal St in Mid-City and ride all the way down to the Mississippi. Then transfer to the St. Charles line and ride all along The Avenue and down Carrollton.
• Swamp Boat Tour
• Explore Bourbon Street & The French Quarter
• Plantation Tours
• Eat incredible food!
  • Beignets – deep fried donuts covered in powdered sugar.  This sounds simple, but the world famous Café du Monde makes them like no other.
  • Oysters – often gulped down raw
  • Gumbo – traditional thickened soup, often full of seafood and served with rice.
  • Alligator – tastes just like chicken!
  • Po’boys – the New Orleans sandwich, typically with roast beef, gravy, fried shrimp, oysters, and mayonnaise (yes I’m serious).
  • Crawfish – boiled and served spicy. Often you are expected to crack open the shells, and suck the head out.
  • Eat dinner in the courtyard of Orleans Wine Bar
  • For an even more in depth guide of food you have to try when visiting New Orleans click here.
• Take a Riverboat Cruise
• Historic Cemetery Tour
