New Orleans French Quarter Cocktail and Culture Tour

About this experience

Tour the vibrant New Orleans cocktail scene like a local- discover local spirits, historic bars, and mixology history in the non-touristy bars of the French Quarter. A great all-inclusive tour for couples, bachelor/bachelorette parties and friends and family trips, you'll enjoy a taste of New Orleans' iconic cocktails, such as the Sazerac, Hurricane, Ramos Gin Fizz and daiquiri, during stops at three local bars (and a quick bite). Learn the captivating history of how these drinks became part of the fabric of our city's fascinating story. Take your drinks "to go" for a walk through the French Quarter and learn about the impact of rum running, sugar production and prohibition on the city's drinking habits. Rethink the drink- if you're looking to experience more than Bourbon Street, this is the tour for you!
