About this tour

See New Orleans from a fresh perspective at Vue Orleans, the city’s only observatory, perched atop the Four Seasons Hotel. This New Orleans Observation Deck experience pairs sweeping 360-degree views with interactive discoveries that bring the city’s character to life.

Begin with touchless exhibits featuring celebrated local figures and culture bearers, then explore stories of New Orleans food and cocktails at the virtual Story Café and hear the city’s musical heritage at the Music Station. Immersive elevators carry you 33 stories up with short films along the way. At the top, take in the skyline from indoor and outdoor decks, then use Vue Finders to explore points of interest across the historic city. The outdoor deck may close in poor weather. A rooftop café and bar offers local-themed cuisine and specialty cocktails for purchase.

With access to the exhibits and both observation decks, this New Orleans Observation Deck visit combines panoramic scenery with a lively introduction to local culture. Book your entry and make room for a new view of the Crescent City.

How this score is calculated

This score is based on one provider. GetYourGuide rates it 4.63 from 145 reviews. We place that rating among all GetYourGuide ratings and weight it by its review count. If the tour is found on another provider later, both ratings are combined.

How the score works and rating distribution in New Orleans
  • Each provider rating is turned into a percentile: the share of that provider's ratings it beats, weighted by review counts.
  • Listings on different providers are combined in proportion to their review counts.
  • Tours with few reviews are pulled toward the average until more reviews come in, so a handful of perfect reviews can't top the list.
  • The result is shown from 0 to 10: this tour scores 7.4. Top 33% in New Orleans means it ranks in the top 33% of tours in New Orleans by this score.
