Family-Friendly Overview
New Orleans is accessible for family outings: the HoHo bus pairs well with kid-focused stops like Audubon Zoo and paddlewheel cruises. This section helps you plan stroller logistics, restroom breaks, and child-friendly meals.
Kid-approved stops
- Audubon Aquarium & Zoo: Stroller-friendly paths and hands-on exhibits — plan a half-day.
- Riverfront / Paddlewheeler: Short scenic cruise that delights children and adults alike.
- French Market: Outdoor stalls with casual food options and open space.
Family tips
- Use a compact stroller that folds quickly for boarding and storing.
- Pack snacks, refillable water, sun protection, and a basic first-aid kit.
- Schedule quiet time or naps during longer HoHo rides — the motion often helps younger children rest.
Half-day family itinerary
- Morning: HoHo to riverfront and an abbreviated paddlewheeler trip (60–90 minutes).
- Midday: Reboard to Audubon for zoo exhibits and lunch.
- Afternoon: Return via Magazine Street for a relaxed meal and shops.
