Things to Do in New Orleans
Audubon Nature Institute
This massive facility is home to a zoo, an aquarium, and butterfly garden
and insectarium, not to mention the Entergy Giant Screen Theater (included
with aquarium admission) and a golf course. Special kid-friendly exhibits
feed curious minds while allowing little ones to get up close and personal
with their favorite furry (or scaly or slimy) friends. You can also watch
daily feedings or sit in on numerous lectures and films about the
environment. Don't miss the gigantic sharks, tarpon and rays in the
400,000-gallon Gulf of Mexico exhibit at the aquarium and the newly
expanded Jaguar Jungle exhibit in the zoo, where you can not only see
jaguars, but bats, tree frogs, poison arrow frogs and much more.
Audubon Zoo
The Audubon Zoo is a fun escape from the busy city, with lush grounds and a
good selection of domestic and exotic animals. Located in Uptown New
Orleans, the zoo is a fair distance from the French Quarter but provides a
good excuse to see this part of the city. Some of the most popular
residents of the zoo are the giraffes, jaguars, leopards, orangutans,
elephants, rhinos, lemurs, and alligators (including the rare white
alligator) just to name a few. During the summer months, the zoo offers a
chance to cool off in the splash park, known as the Cool Zoo.
Swamp and Bayou Sightseeing Tour
The Swamp and Bayou Sightseeing Tour with Boat Ride from New Orleans is the
easiest way to experience the beauty of the bayou, with transportation
right from the French Quarter to the wetlands. Visitors are then taken on a
two-hour wildlife-viewing boat ride through the swamps, with opportunities
to see alligators, snakes, birds, and other animals. Total tour time is
about four hours.
Best Time to Fly to New Orleans
The best time to visit New Orleans is from February to May when the weather
is comfortably cool, and the celebrations are in full swing. If you are not
interested in Mardi Gras mania, plan to visit in December or January, when
the city is calm, and you do not have to worry about making hotel
reservations a year in advance. To save on room rates, travel in the summer
or fall. Just note that these seasons are known for their stifling heat and
humidity, not to mention the threat of hurricanes.
