The self-guided walking tour reveals how garden designers take advantage of small spaces, and provides access to the cool and private hideaways suited to the Louisiana climate in styles of early Spanish and French architecture.

FAQs
Are there different courtyards featured on both days?
Yes. The tours on Saturday and Sunday are completely different and we absolutely recommend buying tickets for both days to see a wide mix of courtyards throughout the French Quarter.
Is this a guided tour?
No, this is a self-guided tour. When you pickup your tickets, you will be given a map to all the courtyards that you can visit in any order you like and at your leisure.

Yes, we will have Sunday's tickets available for pickup on Saturday from 11:00 until 3:00 and Sunday from 11:00 until 3:00 at 533 St. Ann Street. Please note that tickets cannot be picked up at any other time.
Can I buy my tickets the day of the tours?
Yes, although we cannot guarantee that tickets will still be available. We only sell a limited amount of tickets to minimize human impact in the courtyards. Buying tickets online guarantees access. Online ticket sales will end on Friday October 11 at 10:00 PM. In-person ticket purchases can be made at Creol
