French Quarter History & Cocktail Tour
History with cocktails? Learning has never been so much fun!
Join us for history…New Orleans style!
Delve into the founding of our unique city and the colorful characters and events that helped to define it on this New Orleans Secrets tour. We discuss the disastrous fires that resulted in the current architecture of the French Quarter, the history of the first American cocktail, and other notable New Orleans libations, and go into four historic restaurants and bars that each have their own story to tell. This is not a drunken pub crawl, but rather a true New Orleans history and cocktail experience. It’s like history…over happy hour!
