Underground Donut Tours Launching in New Orleans

The Underground Donut Tours have attracted millions of people throughout the years to the best donut shops in the respective cities.

Attendees get to learn about the history of the business as well as taste the goodness of their donuts. Unlike the other cities, donut tours in New Orleans will include beignet shops as well.

“New Orleans is home to some of the best food, culture, nightlife, beignets, and donuts in the country. How could we not add it to our roster? Our team visited New Orleans just prior to COVID-19 and we were planning on opening this location in 2020, but those plans got postponed with everything going on. Thankfully, it looks like things are opening back up and we’re ready to welcome both locals and tourists alike to come and join us for a donut and beignet celebration!” said Jeff Woelker, founder of the Underground Donut Tour.

What Local Shops Will Participate?

Underground Donut Tours is undeground for a reason! Some shops are kept hidden until the day of the event.

Some of the locations include District Donuts and The Vintage with two other secret locations you’ll only learn about on the tour.

“I can’t wait to share the history of Magazine Street and the Garden District along with meeting many amazing guests. And how can I forget eating some fantastic donuts and beignets along the way?” said Jenn Johnson, tour manager for the Underground Donut Tour New Orleans.
