New Orleans was hit hard August, 2005 by Hurricane Katrina. But, this devastating slap from nature hit tourism equally hard. As the fifth anniversary looms near, New Orleans is back in business.There are more restaurants, more hotels, more entertainment in the Big Easy than ever before. In fact, there is much more to this city than Bourbon, beads and beer! Once you’ve strolled up and down Bourbon Street a few times, take time to explore how this city ticks. Fab Placez opens up the city’s food culture with a cooking class at New Orleans School of Cooking, gives you a peek at museums like The Cabildo and The Presbytere, and offers tours of such a varied nature as cemeteries and WWII museums.
Something for everyone is real in New Orleans. She welcomes you. New Orleans best guide book for walking tours and best places to visit.
