New Orleans runs on licensed guides, and it shows: the city requires certification for tour guides, so the floor is higher here than most US cities. Ghost and cemetery walks, French Quarter food crawls, plantation history day trips and swamp boat runs make up the bulk. We rank on whether the operator handles cemetery access properly, since St. Louis No. 1 needs an authorised guide. Outty ranks every New Orleans experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, grouped into most popular, top rated, family friendly, food and drink, culture and nightlife, so you can build the rest of the day around your Houmas House slot.
