The Aquarium has a 350,000 gallon tank teeming with sharks, tarpin, sea turtles, and sawfish - and a rare albino alligator that you have to see with your own eyes.
Order a drive-through Daquiri
Yes, that's right. You can order cocktails "to go" in New Orleans. Of course, we encourage everyone to do this in moderation.
Cool off with a New Orleans snowball
Snowballs are New Orleans' unique take on a cool summer treat. Hansen's Sno-Bliz is one of, if not the, most popular spots to order one. The list of flavors is long - we like chocolate and condensed milk.
Down a Jacques-Imo's Café po boy
Famous for its fried roast beef po boys and alligator cheesecake, Joaquimo's is right next door to another New Orleans institution - see No. 21
Go to Jazzfest
An incredible 10 days of music and culture. Too many big names to mention. Incredible food. Enough culture to last you a whole year.
Request Oysters Rockefeller at Antoine's
A New Orleans institution, Antoine's is another must see. Or must taste. Also a great place to rub shoulders with New Orleans politicians, celebrities, and other food lovers.
