Come with us for 4 incredible days in New Orleans on a girls trip packed with iconic sights, local gems, and everything we actually spent, so you can plan your own NOLA adventure budget.

We visited the French Quarter, rode through Treme and the Garden District, explored the Ninth Ward, strolled Magazine Street, and saw famous spots like Jackson Square, the St. Louis Cathedral, Congo Square, Louis Armstrong Park, and City Park.

We also did a ghost, voodoo, and vampire tour, visited historic cemeteries, and found speakeasies, hidden shops, and unforgettable food. Think Monday, French Toast, Deanie’s Seafood, Cafe Du Monde beignets, Addis NOLA, and more.

We stayed at the Hyatt Centric in the French Quarter and even checked out the Capital One Lounge at JFK before flying in.

Whether you're into history, haunted mansions, jazz, food, or just good vibes, New Orleans has it all and we’re breaking it down with real tips, real prices, and everything you need to know.
