CityTrip New Orleans

The Big Easy – New Orleans rightly carries its nickname, as life here follows different rules. Over 700 churches and 40 cemeteries stand in contrast to a few thousand bars and eateries. Voodoo, traditions, and old-world charm meet modernity, Dolce Vita, and haute cuisine. The city is known for its nightlife, jazz, and the French Quarter, but new trendy neighborhoods like Marigny, Bywater, or Irish Channel are also waiting to be explored, along with exciting museums like the New Orleans Museum of Art.
