Home to the Mardi Gras, alligators, Cajun and Creole cooking, and ongoing and friendly hospitality, New Orleans is the type of place you can’t wait to share with travelers. That is why I love representing this one-of-a-kind city as a travel agent professional.  There is something interesting to do during every season of the year. Therefore, when I plan trips, I often look at what’s going on during the month a client wishes to travel. One of the best times to go to the popular city is during early spring - during  the Mardi Gras or during the Jazz Fest, which takes place over two weekends.  You will need my services as a travel agent advisor, as you’ll want to make sure your reservations are confirmed for lodging and transportation during this peak travel season. In April, the French Quarter hosts a festival where the world’s largest jazz brunch is held and fireworks erupt along the Mississippi. The French Quarter’s historic homes, with their unique architecture and iron grillwork, are the main attraction of the neighborhood and the event. As it gets warmer, more festivals unfold, adding to the spontaneity and positive spirit of the city. While humid and hot weather, combined with daily thunderstorms, places summer as an off-season, it should not prevent you from visiting during the city’s fourth of July celebration.  Also, you cannot miss June’s French Market Creole Tomato Festival during the first weekend in June. During the event, you can watch cooking demonstrations and sample some truly taste-tantalizing cuisine.  July 4th activities take place along the city’s riverfront, and feature food, entertainment, and music, and, of course, a spectacular fireworks display. If you are going to spend the Fourth of July anywhere, New Orleans is the ideal place. While some fall days in New Orleans may be rainy, they will taper down during the driest times in October and November. At this time, the temperatures and humidity decrease, making Halloween a holiday worth celebrating.  During this time, retailers launch the largest selling period of the year. In addition, football season begins, with the New Orleans’ Saints battling it out until December. Indeed, the heritage of Louisiana and New Orleans runs deep. The French and Creole influences are exceptionally strong and memorably taste-worthy. You only have to eat the meat pies or savor the unique flavor of Louisiana cuisine to appreciate the foods and culture.  While staying in New Orleans, make sure to sample the pecan and coconut treats in the fine dining restaurants and step back in time at area plantations. You also want to set your sights on the great outdoors and the area’s beautiful flora and fauna. Let me be your New Orleans travel agent advisor.
