Climate

Louisiana has a humid subtropical climate with long summers and dry winters. With so many events throughout the year, many people decide to travel based on what they want to do or see; the big one, Mardi Gras, can fall any time between the start of February and early March, so these months are often the busiest. Whether you want to join the crowds or avoid them, spring is a good time to visit, as rainfall is low between March and May and temperatures climb from about 20°C to 25°C. June marks the start of the hurricane season, with increased rainfall, temperatures and humidity, which is usually avoided. October usually sees the end of the wet season and is a good time to visit, with plenty of cultural events taking place. There are less things going on in winter, though temperatures are still mild and those who want to avoid the busy periods may still wish to visit.

Getting There

Flight Information
British Airways direct into Louis Armstrong New Orleans International Airport.

Flight Time

Food & Drink

Louisiana loves its food, and while it may seem slightly unusual to more traditional European tastes, dishes are lovingly cooked from the heart with recipes passed down through generations. As the biggest producer of seafood in the United States, with an impressive 98% of crawfish coming from Louisiana’s waters, shellfish is big business here, popping up on most dining menus and celebrated at food festivals. Onion, bell pepper and celery are the basis to many dishes, with smoked sausage or seafood thrown in – gumbo and po’boy sandwiches are the classic concoctions of Louisiana and must be sampled at least once! The state also lays claim to such ‘only-in-America’ records such as the world’s biggest fruit cobbler and the largest macaroni and cheese, plus it is the home of TABASCO sauce. Its official cocktail, the Sazerac, was created in the French Quarter, plus there are plenty of locally brewed craft beers to try, too.

Food & Drink
Music

Jazz is sometimes said to be ‘America’s only art form’ – whether you agree with this or not, Jazz is one of the most treasured musical exports of the United States. It traces back to Congo Square in New Orleans, one of the few places in the South where African Americans were free to play music and dance, and a new musical movement was born. Rock ‘n’ rollers, Jerry Lee Lewis and Fats Domino, were also born in Louisiana, and you can see the latter’s piano in the New Orleans Jazz Museum, along with Louis Armstrong’s first cornet. In addition, there are over 400 events across Louisiana every year, many of which bring together music and food. French Quarter Festival features a full house of headline acts and local musicians, plus fare from some of the finest restaurants at the ‘world’s largest jazz brunch’.

Music
Culture

Like its gumbo, Louisiana culture is a hearty concoction of ingredients – French, Spanish, English, Irish, Cajun and Afro-Caribbean influences are all part of the unique Louisiana mix. Mardi Gras is one of the main cultural attractions of Louisiana, with celebrations taking place across the state – a tradition dating back to medieval Europe, America hosted its first Mardi Gras in the tiny fort settlement of Fort Louis de la Mobile in 1703 and has since grown in size to the lively affair we know today! If you aren’t visiting during the festival, Mardi Gras World in New Orleans offers a year-round behind-the-scenes peek. There are plenty of tours in New Orleans to help you be immersed in the city’s culture, too, such as voodoo tours and cemetery tours, which reveal the superstitious side of the state and the African religion that found a home there. There are also plenty of weird and wonderful museums and exhibitions, including a ‘wrecked UFO’ in the Abita Mystery House!

Culture
History

Louisiana has a deep and fascinating history of people. In Plantation Country, you will find the grand plantation houses and sugarcane fields of River Road which are integral to the heritage of the state. Behind the picturesque Antebellum architecture, it was here that many slaves were brought to work, and there are plenty of museums dedicated to telling their stories. Louisiana was also the site of many battles of the Civil War, and you may see re-enactments taking place as you travel through. However, the state also saw its fair share of the Civil Rights Movement, and the first African American millionaire – who also happened to be a woman! – was born here; Madam C.J Walker made her fortune developing beauty products for fellow African American women and you can visit the Hermione Museum in Tallulah to learn more about her. You can also find five brilliant museums in New Orleans’ Louisiana State Museum.

History
Nature

The scenery of Louisiana might not be the first thing that springs to mind. The bayou is part of the character and culture of Louisiana, and these pre-historic looking swamps are an extremely important eco-system – if you can brave the lurking alligators, guided tours are available for you to see them for yourself. For fans of the great outdoors, there is an array of state parks to enjoy, where you can go biking, hiking, birdwatching and fishing across the state, plus paddle trails along the watery passage ways to be immersed in the area’s unique natural world.
