About the destination
About New Orleans
The quests cover a real range of the city. Some lean into history, from the founding-era streets to a story set in 1862. Others go after the spooky side New Orleans is known for, with ghost trails and the voodoo legends of the French Quarter. There are music-led mysteries and a longer outdoor adventure through City Park, so you can match the mood you are in. Along the way the routes pass landmarks any first-timer wants to see, like Jackson Square, St. Louis Cathedral, Preservation Hall, and Congo Square, the spot tied to the roots of jazz.
A few local notes worth knowing. The muffuletta, the big round Sicilian sandwich layered with olive salad, was invented here and is still a city staple. In the warm months locals cool off with sno-balls, fluffy shaved ice soaked in syrup that is softer than a snow cone. And the St. Charles Avenue streetcar, running since 1835, is the oldest continuously operating streetcar line in the world and a fine way to rest your feet between stops.

Name the creature.
I’m a majestic beast, swift and bold,
In fields of green, my tale unfolds.
A noble creature, with hooves that prance,
A symbol of freedom in every glance.
I can move swiftly, by day or night,
Chasing the wind, my spirit takes flight.
Though I may be pure, like snow, of course,
Can you guess what I am with my grace and force?
