New Orleans, LA (February 24, 2015)-Gray Line New Orleans will introduce a new tour to the public on March 2, 2015. This tour offers guests another view of the city that they won't see during the day.

On the New Orleans at Night Tour, customers will experience fabulous views of the city skyline and one of the world's oldest ports on the Mississippi River. They will stop at the popular Old Point Bar in Algiers, which has been featured in over 40 films. Another exciting stop will be at the historic Columns Hotel on St. Charles Avenue. Built in 1883, the hotel was named one of the 100 best bars in America by Esquire.

The tour will also pass by the Magazine Street shopping and dining district, Superdome and Smoothie King Center, the French Quarter, Jackson Square, and St. Louis Cathedral. At the end of the evening, customers may choose to be dropped off to explore the bars and live music of Frenchman Street.

"This is a small, group tour with some of our best local tour guides," says Adrienne Thomas, director of marketing for Gray Line New Orleans. "Tourists will see both the historic and fun sides of the city. The New Orleans night life combined with a city tour is a fresh, new take."

Reservations are required. For bookings and more information call 504-569-1401.
