USA & Canada / New Orleans

It often feels like there's a celebration to be had in New Orleans, where the likes of Mardi Gras and hometown jazz dominate the social scene. From crawfish étouffée to chorizo jambalaya, the flavours in New Orleans are just as vibrant as the culture, with strong influences of Creole and Cajun cuisine. The oldest part of the city, the French Quarter is home to the famous Bourbon Street and is best explored by traditional horse and carriage, taking in the many historical sights. Southern Louisiana holds a rich past, with its exquisite plantation houses by the Mississippi River offering a taste of the old antebellum life.

When is the best time to visit New Orleans?

The temperature in New Orleans is mostly pleasant all year round, with a similar climate to the Caribbean. The humidity levels fluctuate throughout the year, with May to September being typically hot and humid and June to November experiencing occasional heavy rainstorms. We highly recommend visiting between February and May.
