Day Three
This morning's optional guided city tour introduces the 'Big Easy'. Don't miss the time-warped, iron-balconied buildings of the French Quarter, centred on Jackson Square, and Treme, one of the areas most affected by Hurricane Katrina. Afterwards, you may also like to join our optional Louisiana swampland excursion for a glimpse of the city's surrounding countryside and a taste of Creole life. In the evening, head back to the 'Quarter', and immerse yourself in the atmosphere of the place that gave the world jazz, and where the legacy of Louis Armstrong and 'King' Oliver lives on in innumerable bars, clubs and even on the street corners
