City Sightseeing New Orleans: 1-Day Hop-on Hop-off Bus Tour

About this experience

Book City Sightseeing New Orleans hop-on hop-off tickets and explore the Crescent City at your own pace for a full day. Your 1 day pass gives you unlimited rides to up to 19 major sights, with a live English-speaking guide on board who brings the city's history and character to life. Hop off to shop on Canal Street, wander the French and Spanish streets of the old city, or admire the grand houses of the Garden District, then rejoin a later bus. What will you see on the New Orleans bus tour? The route gives you a 360 degree view of New Orleans and its mix of cultures. You learn about the French and Spanish heritage that shaped the old city, see the busy shopping street of Canal Street, and travel out to the Garden District, known for its elegant historic houses. With up to 19 stops on the route, you can build your own day around the neighbourhoods, museums and restaurants that interest you most. What is included with your ticket? Your ticket includes a 1 day unlimited hop-on hop-off pass, live commentary from an English-speaking guide, and a free discount booklet with offers around the city. Entry to attractions along the route is not included, so book museum and cruise tickets separately if you want to go inside. Keep the discount booklet with you, as it can save you money at places you visit along the way. How do you board? Your voucher is emailed to you straight after booking. You can board at any of the designated stops. When you first get on the bus, show your voucher on paper or on your phone, and it will be exchanged for a ticket. After that, hop on and off as often as you like for the rest of the day, so keep your ticket somewhere safe. The buses are wheelchair accessible. Pets are not allowed on board. Tips for your day in New Orleans Start early to make the most of a one day pass. A good plan is to ride the full route first to see how the neighbourhoods fit together, then return to the French Quarter or the Garden District for a longer walk. New Orleans can be hot and humid, especially in summer, so carry water and take breaks in the shade between stops. The live guide is a good source of tips on where to eat and what to see, so listen out for their suggestions as you ride. If you plan to add a river cruise or a museum visit, check their times first and fit your bus rides around them so you do not miss a departure. Make more of your New Orleans visit Hop off near the river for the Steamboat Natchez sightseeing jazz cruise on the Mississippi. History fans can spend a few hours at the National WWII Museum, and after dark a New Orleans Voodoo tour reveals another side of the city.
