The atmosphere around Jackson Square is colorful and entertaining as dozens of artists, street performers, fortune tellers, and professed psychics, compete for attention.

Activities are endless. Swamp boat and airboat tours take the adventurous into the boggy bayous for close-up views of Louisiana wildlife. Plantation tours attest to the glory days of the Old South.
