When you think of New Orleans, Louisiana, you probably think it’s a place with a lot of bars, loud parades, lots of music, and maybe even cajun food.  Ok, so you’re right on all of that, but New Orleans is so much more.  And, there’s a lot of venues and places and activities that are accessible, too.

Accessible options

I’ve been to New Orleans a few times and with each trip I was able to find accessible taxis, hotels with accessible rooms, and plenty of restaurants and other establishments that were accessible.  Over the years, New Orleans has become more accessible and it’s a great city to visit, easily. I was able to rent an accessible van through Superior Van & Mobility.  I stayed at the Hilton New Orleans Riverside in a great, accessible room.

The hotel was directly on the Mississippi River and close to bars, restaurants, and many attractions.  There are streets with cobblestones and trolley tracks, so be very careful.  I look forward to getting back to New Orleans for the southern hospitality, the music, and certainly the incredible cuisine.  Here are some of my recommendations for an accessible and fun trip to New Orleans!
