We’ll start our journey with a visit to St. Joseph’s Cemetery, wherein your guide will share insights about the distinctive interment customs and festivities in our ‘necropolis cities’. Next, we’ll breeze through the leafy Garden District under canopies of life-giving oak trees. You’ll be amazed by the splendid mansions, once home to affluent merchants and now the playground of modern-day celebrities. Your guide will regale you with the tales of not only the inhabitants, but of those who fabricated these wonderful residences.
