Overview

Make the most of your New Orleans vacation with a New Orleans French Quarter History Tour!

A visit to the famous French Quarter in New Orleans, known locally as the Vieux Carré, represents one of the most popular things to do in New Orleans. Founded by Jean-Baptiste Le Moyne de Bienville in 1718, the French Quarter overlooks the mighty Mississippi River and is steeped in history and tradition. You’ll find many different architectural landmarks that have each received designations of significance. The French Quarter itself is a National Historic Landmark with over 3 centuries of both decadent and dark historical moments in its past. Indeed, some of the French Quarter historical buildings predate the ratification of the U.S. Constitution!
