“This was the highlight of our trip to Nola. Our guide John was extremely knowledgeable and very interesting. He was very articulate and made the tour fascinating. He went out of his way to make us comfortable. I will recommend to everyone I know who is traveling to your city.”
THE TREME
America’s oldest African American neighborhood was settled by Free People of Color and is known as the Cradle of the Southern Civil Rights movement. The Treme is home to the Mardi Gras Indians, St. Augustine Church, the oldest Black Catholic Parish in the United States, Louis Armstrong Park and Congo Square. The neighborhood’s architectural landscape is resplendent in Creole Cottages and colorful Shotguns. Soulful and Authentic, its streets gave birth to Jazz, a music that would change the world.
