Things to Do in Louisiana for First Time Visitors
TODAY'S ADVENTURE
Things to Do in Louisiana for First Time VisitorsLouisiana is one of those places that first-time visitors can go to without any specific plan and still end up having a blast. With tons of iconic landmarks sprinkled in every city, it’s difficult to head out there and not catch a glimpse of American history. Here are the best things to do in Louisiana, one of those places that first-time visitors can go to and have a blast in every corner.
With such a rich past, the culture of Louisiana has grown to create a unique atmosphere that can’t be found anywhere else. Here’s a fun fact about Louisiana: Every local knows that when a first-time visitor asks what they should do around here, the answer’s not going to be short. Here are some of the things you can’t miss out on in Louisiana.
6 Things to Do in Louisiana
Walk Around New Orleans’ Royal Street
If you’re looking for an area to take memorable photos, then Royal Street is definitely the place for you. Exploring Louisiana’s architecture, culture, and cuisine is made extremely easy by walking through a street filled with the finest buildings, art, and restaurants around. Royal Street is almost like a concentrated dose of the Louisiana experience so visiting it when you don’t have much time to spare is strongly recommended.
Eat a Lot of Food
There’s a reason why restaurants all over the world title their food as Louisiana Style before the names of their best dishes. That’s because of how superb the culinary experience is around here. Whether it’s soul food or the hot sauce on top of it, you know that if you’re in Louisiana, you’re going to be eating well throughout your stay.
Visit the Capital City
While visiting New Orleans is highly recommended, visiting the capital city Baton Rouge is an absolute must, especially if you’re taking this trip along with your family. Whether it’s visiting museums or exploring the rich American history, you’ll find that most Baton Rouge activities are well suited for families. When you’ve had your fill of learning about history, you’ll want to have some fun at some of the zoos and water parks that make Baton Rouge a popular place for families to visit.
Visit the National WWII Museum
Previously known as the D-Day Museum, the National WWII Museum gives its visitors a fully immersive experience of how it was like during the second world war. It’s one of the most iconic museums in the great city of New Orleans. It is most definitely worth taking a few hours to explore.
Visit the Tiger Stadium
With the NFL season right around the corner, what’s better for reviving your love of football other than visiting one of the most popular stadiums. The best part is that after you check the stadium out, you’ll find tons of sports bars and restaurants nearby, where you can share your love of the sport with some of the locals.
Explore the Nightlife
Visiting any new place for the first time means that you must check out the nightlife around the city. With Louisiana being one of the states known for its love for the blues, you have to try to catch a live performance at a local bar/restaurant.
One of the best things about the state of Louisiana is that there’s always something there to do for everyone. It’s great for families, couples, or just solo travelers. If you’re planning on visiting it for the first time, you might want to make it a lengthy trip, as there’s going to be a lot to see.

Fly to Hawaii for as low as $195
HOSTED BY: 1 AIR TRAVEL
Palm trees, black- and white-sand beaches, clear teal waters — Hawaii truly is paradise. Unfortunately, tickets to paradise tend to be pretty pricey for most of the year.
However, from now through March, multiple airlines are offering cheap fares to popular tourist destinations in Hawaii. Tickets from a variety of cities across the U.S. go for as low as $195.

You can find the most heavily discounted fares to Hawaii from West Coast cities like Los Angeles and Seattle, but there are also solid deals from New York City-area airports.
With prices dipping below $200, this bargain offer to Hawaii is not sure to last. In order to snag discounted tickets to the Aloha State, be sure to book your tickets within the next couple of days.
Deal basics
Airlines: Alaska Airlines, American Airlines, Delta Air Lines, Hawaiian Airlines and United Airlines. Routes: Atlanta, Austin, Baltimore, Boston, Chicago, Dallas, Denver, Las Vegas, New York, Phoenix, San Francisco, Seattle and many other U.S. cities have discounted routes to Honolulu, Lihue, Kahului and Kailua-Kona. How to book: Search through Google Flights to determine your ideal dates, then book directly with the airline of your choice. Travel dates: Generally from November 2022 to March 2023, excluding holidays. Book by: Within the next two days.
Kudos to Scott’s Cheap Flights for sourcing this deal. The site’s Premium membership — which comes with a 14-day free trial and costs $49 per year — has discounts of up to 90%. The Elite membership flags premium economy, business-class and first-class deals.
Sample flights
For the rest of 2022 and well into the new year, multiple airlines are offering discounted routes to popular Hawaii destinations like Honolulu, Kailua-Kona, Lihue and Kahului from an array of U.S. cities.
Here are some highlights we’ve bookmarked:
Hawaiian: Oakland International Airport (OAK) to Daniel K. Inouye International Airport (HNL), starting at $195.United: Los Angeles International Airport (LAX) to Kona International Airport (KOA), starting at $237.United: Seattle-Tacoma International Airport (SEA) to KOA, starting at $268 (includes a layover in San Francisco).United: Albuquerque International Sunport (ABQ) to Lihue Airport (LIH), starting at $355.Delta: Denver International Airport (DEN) to Kahului Airport (OGG), starting at $357 (includes a layover in Seattle).Hawaiian: John F. Kennedy International Airport (JFK) to HNL, starting at $489.When booking flights, we recommend using Google Flights first to search for your best available dates and then booking directly on the airline’s website. Direct airline bookings are more reliable in the event your flight faces a cancellation, delay or booking change.
For a Feb.1 flight from JFK to Honolulu, Google Flights shows two bargain options. The first is a Delta flight that leaves for Hawaii at 9 a.m. and costs $479; the other is a Hawaiian flight that takes off at 10 a.m. and is $489. Both flights are nonstop.
GOOGLE FLIGHTS
However, if you opt for the Delta flight, the only available returning flight to New York that would keep the fare low is a Hawaiian one that departs at 4:55 p.m. This flight returns to JFK on Feb. 8, so you’d have a weeklong vacation in Honolulu.
GOOGLE FLIGHTS
Keep in mind that since these two flights to and from Honolulu are operated by two different carriers who don’t have any codeshares, you’d have to book your tickets separately on Delta’s and Hawaiian’s websites.
Booking tickets on two separate websites seems like it could be a hassle, but the process is relatively seamless. Once you click on the Google Flights link to book your flights, just click on the two websites — Delta and Hawaiian both take you to the checkout page for the individual tickets.

These tickets are for the airlines’ basic economy options. Neither Delta nor Hawaiian allows passengers to select seats or make changes to their flights with basic economy.

While basic economy may be restrictive, it offers very low fares. Also, in this case, the flights between JFK and Honolulu are nonstop, so you also don’t have to deal with any layovers. The $479 price tag for these two flights is considered to be on the low end, according to Google Flights, so it’s still worth acting on.

Maximize your purchase
When booking your tickets, use a card that earns bonus points on airfare purchases like The Platinum Card® from American Express (5 points per dollar on airfare booked directly with the airline or through American Express Travel, on up to $500,000 on these purchases per calendar year), Citi Prestige® Card (5 points per dollar on airfare), Citi Premier® Card, Chase Sapphire Reserve (3 points per dollar on airfare), American Express® Gold Card (3 points per dollar on airfare when booked directly with the airline or through Amex Travel) or the Chase Sapphire Preferred Card (2 points per dollar on travel). Check out this post for more on maximizing airfare purchases.
The information for the Citi Prestige Card has been collected independently by The Points Guy. The card details on this page have not been reviewed or provided by the card issuer.
Bottom line
Even though the fares in this deal are for basic economy — which can be restrictive — many flights are nonstop. Also, the prices are significantly lower than normal. If you want to save even more on airfare, you can book your departing and returning flights through two different airlines to get the best possible price.
All the airlines listed in this bundle are offering such steep discounts during Hawaii’s peak tourist season in the winter, and well into 2023. So, if you’ve been contemplating a trip to the Aloha State, now is the time to act.
