Touted as America’s Best Donut Tour, the Underground Donut Tour has been running for nearly seven years across the U.S. in popular cities, including Chicago, Philadelphia, New York City, Portland, Seattle, Boston, and Nashville. 

Now, the delicious donut tour is coming to New Orleans after nearly seven years in business. It’s a pretty simple tour concept – thousands of guests from around the world get to see the best donuts each city has to offer.

“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,” said Jeff Woelker, founder of the Underground Donut Tour.  “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!”

Walking between four of the best donut and beignet shops in New Orleans – they share the history of each location, along with many local sights, sounds, and history of Magazine Street and the Garden District.
