If you’d prefer riding to walking, we’ve got you covered. Royal Carriages takes visitors on guided mule-drawn carriage history tours. City Sightseeing’s Hop-On Hop-Off Tours , with their easily recognizable double-decker buses, allow riders to see the sights from up high. You could also board a boat: multiple riverboats offer family-friendly dinner cruises down the Mississippi River, starting near the French Quarter. There’s plenty beyond the Quarter to explore, too. From bike tours in the Marigny to boat tours in City Park , New Orleans makes it easy for families to find rides. Just outside of New Orleans you’ll find scenic plantation museums, swamp tour outfitters, a high-speed racetrack with kid-friendly activities ( NOLA Motorsports Park ) and a farm unlike anything you’ve seen ( Insta-Gator Alligator Ranch ).
