TEN years after Hurricane Katrina devastated New Orleans, the city has bounced back and is once again a major draw for tourists heading to the Deep South.

The city is one of a kind, with a fun-loving vibe and French flavour which unlike anywhere else in America.

One of the best ways to experience all that the city has to offer is with the New Orleans Power Pass (www.neworleanspass.com), a sightseeing card that helps visitors save time and money at top attractions.

Just relaunched with a new smartphone- and tablet-ready website, it is now simpler than ever to purchase the New Orleans Power Pass, which offers free entry into more than 25 of the city’s top attractions, tours and experiences. The pass also includes fast-track entry at selected top attractions and a free Adventures in New Orleans Bus Tour, which is the ideal way for visitors to find their way around when they first arrive in the city.

Priced from $80.49 per adult and $49.49 per child (aged 2-12) for a one-day pass, the New Orleans Power Pass is a convenient single purchase that allows pass holders to see the very best of the city without spending hours waiting in line for tickets at each attraction. It is also the most cost-effective way to enjoy sightseeing in the city.

With a one-day pass ($80.49) visitors only need to visit two attractions before they begin to make savings on normal admission and tour prices. Key attractions featured in the pass include: Audubon Aquarium of the Americas: At New Orleans’ top attraction, visitors can experience one of the best aquariums in the US, see rare Louisiana White Alligators, put their hands in a stingray pool, and take a plunge into the recreated Great Maya Reef for an amazing underwater adventure (certified divers only).
