We'll go to FIVE CEMETERIES in New Orleans, including METAIRIE CEMETERY, dubbed by many as "the most beautiful cemetery in America." Don't worry - they are all next to one another, so this is a very leisurely walk. This is perhaps the only tour in New Orleans that covers such a variety of cemeteries and religions: we'll visit a non-denominational cemetery (Metairie Cemetery, where ANNE RICE, author of INTERVIEW WITH A VAMPIRE is buried), a Catholic cemetery; a Jewish cemetery; a Protestant cemetery; and a cemetery for the Katrina Hurricane victims and for yellow fever patients. We will visit celebrity graves in these cemeteries (authors, actors, musicians, politicians). The tour is FULLY NARATED, and guests get to hear the history of the different communities, and how and why New Orleans buries its loved ones so differently than the rest of the USA.
