Participants will delve into the neighborhood's unique story, learning about the wealthy Americans who developed the area, the stunning Greek Revival and Italianate architecture, and the cultural forces that shaped this iconic part of the city.

This tour provides much more than a scenic stroll past grand mansions; it offers a deeper understanding of New Orleans's complex past. Led by knowledgeable, city-licensed volunteer guides, the tour illuminates the influence of key historical figures, political events, and local geography on the district’s development. It's an essential activity for history enthusiasts and anyone looking to move beyond the French Quarter to appreciate the enduring statements of mid-nineteenth-century American life in the Crescent City.

Louis' tour of the Garden District was exceptional and thoroughly enjoyable! We gained insights into the colorful and unique history of the Garden District that could only come from deep and educated research of an architect and good storyteller (yes, I am talking about Louis :-))! Much of the information we learned was from Louis' personal research and could not be learned anywhere else, like intricate architectural design details and the upside-down railing! We also loved his stories both historical and recent, some from his personal experiences. Thank you for the fun and insightful tour!

We did a walking tour of the Garden District with Louis and it was outstanding! As an architect and long-time resident of New Orleans, his knowledge of interesting architectural details and local history was exceptional and on top of that his delivery was funny and charming. Highly recommend booking with Friends of Cabildo and Louis in particular!

It was an excellent tour. Our guide, Louis, made me feel like he was showing us around his own neighborhood, proudly (and very creatively) telling us about the architecture and his civically important current and bygone neighbors. I highly recommend Louis’s tour, whether you’re a local or visiting from out-of-town.
