    Learn much about the city

    I enjoyed the narration from the tour guides on the buses and learn much about the city even as I had lived in the city previously. I do have one compliant at that being that using my visa card with bank of america they charged me a foreign transaction fee because the headquarter are from England. Did not know that if I had i would have used a card that does not charge a foreign transaction fee.

Experience New Orleans in Hop On Hop Off Bus Tours

Cruise around the Big Easy in a comfortable ride during New Orleans Sightseeing city tour. Famously nicknamed the Crescent City, New Orleans is known for its festive vibe, live music scenes and vibrant nightlife. In the 1800s, Mardi Gras was celebrated here. It is the place where Dental Floss was invented by Levi Spear Parmly. The place is the melting pot of French and African cultures with key attractions like the French Quarter, Jackson Square, the New Orleans Museum of Art, and so on.

With City Sightseeing Hop-on Hop-off, you can pick and choose which famous landmarks you want to see during your vacation. Simply hop off the bus at the city's attractions that tickle your fancy. Then hop back on and skip the ones that don’t! A New Orleans sightseeing trip has never been this easy!

Check out the top points of interest, such as the French Quarter, Lafayette Cemetery, Jackson Square, and more. Or embark on a Southern Louisiana Swamps and Bayous Tour that’s paired with your New Orleans City Sightseeing bus tour. You can even combine a laidback Jazz evening or a Harbour Cruise with your sightseeing tour for a truly unforgettable experience. And, if you’re looking for a pocket-friendly deal, the Flex Pass, which includes a Hop On/Hop Off Tour, will help you see the most of this quirky city without emptying your wallet. That’s why picking one up is one of the smartest things to do in the city!
