The Pontalba Buildings form two sides of Jackson Square in the French Quarter of New Orleans, Louisiana. They are matching red-brick, one-block-long, four‑story buildings built in the late 1840s by the Baroness Micaela Almonester Pontalba. The ground floors house shops and restaurants; and the upper floors are apartments which, reputedly, are the oldest continuously-rented such apartments in the United States. Many performers can be found on the square and around the french quarters. Beware of bad tarmac and pavés!

Steamboat Natchez

Highlight • Monument

It is well worth taking a ride on this vessel. With authentic technology and nice views, the evening cruise is a lot of fun. It's worth the option to visit the engine room of the steamboat. Also, there's a nice photo opportunity from the pier.

Algiers Point Historic District

Highlight • Historical Site

Algiers is the second oldest neighborhood in New Orleans and well worth a visit at the end of your ride (or even as a break in the middle). Your pace will be slowed down here and you will want to linger wandering amongst the old wooden houses and discovering its history with music.
