Spring Fiesta Walking Tours

For lovers of history, architecture, and the decorative arts, this is about as much fun as you can have in New Orleans on foot. The annual New Orleans Spring Fiesta is a series of walking tours over two weekends to visit private homes, gardens, and courtyards in the French Quarter, Garden District, and Uptown. The "A Night in Ole New Orleans" gala and a brunch event at Antoine's round out the fiesta this year. Tours are $20–$30, with $5 discounts for advance purchases. See springfiestanola.com for full schedule.
