A sweet treat in the Big Easy!
Begin your adventure at a local favorite where the beignets are fresh, pillowy, and generously dusted with powdered sugar. Pair them with a cup of their rich, smooth coffee as you savor your first taste of this iconic New Orleans treat.
Our next stop is a New Orleans institution, District Donuts, where the creativity knows no bounds. Indulge in their incredible donuts, savory kolaches, and buttery biscuits, each made with care and a dash of Southern flair.
From there, we’ll explore the historic charm of Magazine Street, lined with boutique shops, cafes, and galleries. As we walk, learn about its evolution from a trading route to one of the city’s most beloved thoroughfares.
As we continue into the Garden District, admire the stately mansions and oak-lined streets, hearing tales of the area’s storied past and its role in New Orleans’ vibrant culture.
At our third stop, we’ll try some of their famous beignets with seasonal flavors that reflect the soul of the Crescent City. This beloved brunch spot brings a unique twist to the classics, offering a sweet treat you won’t forget.
Finally, we’ll end at The Vintage, where oversized beignets steal the show. Enjoy these golden delights as you relax and soak in the lively, welcoming atmosphere.
The New Orleans Donut Tour is the perfect blend of history, culture, and unforgettable flavors, offering a delicious way to experience the magic of this one-of-a-kind city.
