Summary

Day Trips "RM" guides take travelers to dozens of wonderful destinations with attractions ranging from museums and arboretums to theme parks and micro-breweries. They also include all pertinent information on dining, shopping, and even lodging, should readers decide to really play hooky!

Listings for each day trip will be fully updated in each new edition, including what to see and do and where to eat, stay, and shop.

New Orleans is a 300-year-old city blessed by historic architecture, centuries-old French, Spanish, and African cuisine, and rollicking jazz born in the wee hours of the 20th century. From the remote, time-warped fishing villages of Shell Beach and Delacroix island in lower St. Bernard Parish to the melange of barge casinos, water parks, and oak tree framed shoreline homes of the Mississippi Gulf Coast, this guide offers more than 25 fascinating excursions.
