New Orleans Getaway Round Trip from San Antonio

Round-trip New Orleans getaway from San Antonio on the Sunset Limited

New Orleans Getaway Round Trip from San Antonio, a rail journey with Amtrak Vacations

Amtrak Vacations runs this 4-day, 3-night New Orleans Getaway as a round trip from San Antonio, riding Amtrak's Sunset Limited both ways. The $419 USD price includes 3 nights of hotel accommodations in New Orleans along with three set outings: a Jazz Brunch at the Court of Two Sisters, a City & Cemetery Tour, and a Swamp and Bayou Tour outside the city. No day-by-day itinerary is published beyond these inclusions, so travelers fill in the rest of their own schedule, which the description suggests might include wandering the French Quarter, listening to jazz, and visiting City Park. This suits San Antonio travelers who want a short, rail-based New Orleans break with a handful of tours already arranged.
