Being ranked #1 in ten categories in Travel & Leisure Magazine’s 2009 “America’s Favorite Cities” survey, the people of New Orleans really mean what they say… “Les Bon Temps Rouler!” (Let the Good Times Roll!). Considered the birthplace of jazz, New Orleans is an ideal destination to enrich your student groups’ appreciation for jazz as well as many other types of music. New Orleans is also brimming with educational museums, exciting attractions, Cajun/Creole restaurants, unique historical sites and culture. We encourage student groups to take advantage and actively become a part of the rebirth of New Orleans. The magic in New Orleans runs deep. When your group leaves, the fun and excitement goes with you!
