For 300 years, New Orleans has been welcoming visitors to the Big Easy and now, travel agents can get to know the Crescent City with a summer trip.

During New Orleans Convention and Visitors Bureau'sSummer Fam, travel agents can enjoy special rates during June, July and August at a variety of area hotels with rooms starting at $69.

Summer in New Orleans is full of celebration. Travel in June for the French Market Creole Tomato Festival, the Satchmo SummerFest will take place at the beginning of August and Southern Decadence at the end of the month.

Travel advisors should be sure to pick up their New Orleans Travel Agent VIP Pass, which will give them access to special offers at restaurants and other popular attractions in New Orleans.

Once agents return from the Big Easy, they will be ready to ace the courses needed to become a New Orleans Specialist. Courses are offered online and cover the topics of cruising, destination weddings, group travel and more.

In addition to its travel agent training course and the summer fam experience, NOCVB's travel agent resources include an agent toolkit, an online RFP, itinerary information and more.
