NO Cemetaries
I'm visiting NO in May for the 1st time. The cemetaries are at the top of my list of sights to see. First which are the most interesting? Second should we do a tour? And which is the best tour? I had read in my research that you should not be wandering around the cemetaries alone but should remain in a group because could be unsafe, even during the day. Any input would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Yes tours are the best bet. I like www.saveoutcemeteries.org they are historically accurate and a nonprofit group. I have taken both their tours, worthwhile.

I very much agree with J Correa on Historic New Orleans Walking Tours. In fact, something I read before we went (wish I could tell you the exact source but it's been four years and I read a lot of stuff before we went) said that while Save Our Cemeteries is a great organization, Historic New Orleans Walking Tours actually does a better tour.
