The locals Bourbon Street and epicenter of the New Orleans live music scene
5 minutesEsplanade Avenue
Also known as, 'The Avenue of the Creoles' or Millionaires Row', we ride this 4+ mile stretch from it' beginning to our stop in city park. Along the way we see mansions of the old Creole aristocracy and here stories about who these were/are and their influence on New Orleans culture and society. This portion of the tour also stops at, 'Gayerre Place' to see the decorative monument, 'Peace, the Genius of History.'
30 minutesSt. Louis Cemetery No. 3
We stop to see the last and oldest of the St. Louis cemeteries to hear about the burial process of the deceased New Orleanians; it's an interesting story for sure. We do not give a tour of the cemetery; this is just a brief stop to hear stories as well as a photo op and opportunity for a short stroll among the tombs.
10 minutesCity Park
Upon departure from the park we cross over Bayou St. John via 'Magnolia Bridge' before heading to Treme'.
20 minutesBayou St. John
We stop on the Live Oak tree lined Ursuline Avenue for another history lesson in a beautiful setting.
20 minutesTreme
Into the Treme' we ride. Unlike many other tours, we take our riders deep into Treme' showing you the true version of the neighborhood that isn't depicted on popular shows produced by Hollywood. Since we're from New Orleans, we've got a lot of friends in the neighborhood; you'll be greeted with smiles, waives and a "hey baby" as we roll on to Armstrong Park & Congo Square.
20 minutesLouis Armstrong Park
A ride through Louis Armstrong Park let's us know that we're almost finished with the best bike tour in the city. A peaceful ride along the fountain filled ponds and tree-lined path takes us to our final stop in Congo Square.
10 minutesCongo Square
This is last stop on the tour, it's where it all comes together. This last stop is the birthplace of Jazz Music and the origins of Jazz Fest.
