The New Orleans Itinerary Edit - 5 Days including Jazz Fest

New Orleans is the birthplace of jazz and home of the American cocktail, a city where the rhythm, historic neighbourhoods, food and late-night energy all play a part.

This 5-day plan is designed to mix Jazz Fest with the restaurants, bars and music that define the city.

You’ll have two full festival days, plus time to explore the French Quarter, the Garden District, Magazine Street, Bywater and the riverfront.

Expect evenings built around live jazz, small-venue sets and neighbourhood bars serving cocktail classics.

Food is a major part of the trip: beignets in the morning, Creole dishes that have shaped the city for generations, and neighbourhood spots that show how New Orleans cooks today.

There’s room to add more if you want it - a swamp tour or a relaxed steamboat cruise fits neatly around the festival.

If you’re thinking about New Orleans for Jazz Fest, we can help with the best areas to stay and a plan that includes great music and even better food.
