Some say Old Algiers is one of New Orleans’ best kept secrets. With quiet charm, and a spectacular view of the city, we can see why. Take the ferry across the Mississippi River to visit and decide for yourself. For the best of both worlds, Algiers Folk Art festival on Nov 2 is the perfect chance to experience the magic of Old Algiers with the unique culture of New Orleans. See what’s in store at the festival this year.
