Facts I live there to they DON'T CARE

Wafflemonster33 You forgot Sugar!!! Lol!!

Thats so getto

Lol literally any state in the south. Those from the north may need to know this though lol.

Dutchess Eberline you don’t know ghetto if you think that ghetto

Thanks love

Good idea. However, I love the Quarter in the morning. No hollering and loud music playing (which is fun at night) and everything seems more bright and beautiful - especially the beautiful balcony flowers throughout the neighborhood. Plus, most of the restaurants that have the famous breakfasts are open! Chicory coffee always tastes the best to me at that time! To each his own, though.

Well, I guess that's why it's known as "the Big Easy"...

perfect 💯

That’s good to know, thanks.

Cool thats good to know thank you

LMAO seems fuckin legit!

You gots yo' gun on yo' feet??

@@Dudemon-1 Yes, I don't f*ck around.

I live near Baltimore I know what you mean, Baltimore is a warezone

Isn't that everywhere

Glob was here! No, it’s not everywhere. But, in NOLa, even the side streets have activity... and you have to be wary of which streets you decide to walk down, to get to the major thoroughfares.

@@nlee2492 there can be activity anywhere. You could live in a quiet neighborhood and still have something bad happen to you

I agree. Why does that seem like a thing to say about visiting New Orleans? Would you say that about visiting New York?

The Dutch handle drinking allot and peeing the right way. They have open air places to just step behind and relieve yourself.

Also don't poop in public

mardi gras is rough tho

They WILL take you to jail over that. Seen it happen.

You are not lying! Lol. The first time I visited I was thrown off by this because in cities up north we don’t talk to people we don’t know other than a simple head nod to say hello and if a person you don’t know DOES start talking to you, they usually have an angle, and they want something or they’re setting up to rob you or something. New Orleans is my favorite city in America to visit.

Or Cher. 😊

I lived near Nola for a few years. Fit right in being a Texan.

Renee Taylor Prayers for peace for you and your family!!!!! 💓

Renee Taylor I’m so sorry for your loss.

We're a very ghost-friendly city. If she's here, she's welcome and probably having a blast.

So sorry to hear that! I hope that whenever you’re ready to come back, that everyone here shows you that great hospitality that we have! That broke my heart a lil bit. Sorry for your lost hun. 😘💔

Joel Farrelly lol ain’t that the truth. Especially the quarters!

I had a fish bowl yesterday. I was like oh I don't feel nothing and then it kicked in I was like whoa! Lol

Can you recommend a voodoo, cemetery, ghost tour? I've see several but none that stick out. Looking for a night one.

Can you recommend some places to eat, those as you said - not too known but with the best food?

Just to be clear NewOrleans is slightly more dangerous as it has one of the highest under rates in the country

Why would I take the sticker off nothing wrong with tourists

You rock. Thank you.

I work at Harrahs. Should have told them to come see me on the Craps Table. Pit boss for 6 years

@@brashton101 if you want to gamble come up here to Shreveport

Can you recommend any hotels with a balcony view of the parades ?

@@gbw003 If you're asking about Mardi Gras parades, they don't run in the French Quarter - I've never visited N.O. during this time, but they begin on Canal and make their way down St. Charles (through the Garden District.) If there are hotels with balcony views of the parade, I'm not much help. Many hotels in the French Quarter are going to have some rooms with outward facing balconies - and they're typically the most expensive. We like the balcony rooms at Four Points, many of which open right out onto Bourbon. It's going to be noisy through the night, but I love it - If I want peace and quiet, I could just stay home!

@@skeeterskier I see a Four Points Hotel by Sheraton on Bourbon Street, I'll research their availability, not worried about the noise I'm not looking for a good night's sleep, thank you for the feedback, greatly appreciated !!

@@gbw003 My pleasure. If you have any other questions about NO, feel free to ask.

@@skeeterskier The other way around sir. They begin uptown and move down Canal.

yeah, they kinda can't be headstones since it'd be under the waterline lol

How do you get in? Access was friends and family only when we vlogged New Orleans

I got married in St. Louis #3 on Halloween (I live in tremé btw) and I think it’s actually the most New Orleans wedding ever. So my (now) husband is a truck driver and is gone for 6-10weeks at a time we never know when he’ll be home or for how long and So I love Halloween, we’ve been coming to New Orleans for Halloween since we first started dating like 5 years before we moved here (moved here in 2015) and we got engaged on Halloween in the quarter in 2016 and I always wanted to her married in a NOLA cemetery. so we found out he as going to be able to stop home for like 16 hours on Halloween and only had 2 days to plan so we found a minister on thumbtack and then realized all of our friends were either busy with their kids or out of town so we didn’t have any witnesses. So I posted about it on Nextdoor and asked a bunch of strangers in the neighborhood to help out and I got 3 responses right away and I posted the time and location on the nextdoor post and didn’t think anything of it.. so Halloween afternoon we go to the cemetery to meet our 3 witnesses and minister and there were tons of people just kind of standing around and then I overheard someone say “oh im here for the wedding too!” and it turns out that ALL these people were there to be guests at our very quick and very casual wedding despite never meeting us before. Some of them even brought little gifts and stuff. I mean, what’s more New Orleans than that? A bunch of strangers coming together to celebrate the marriage of two other strangers and turning it into a festive, Halloween Second line celebration. But yes, our cemeteries are so beautiful, unique and special. They’re a must if you come to visit. Sorry for the novel. I (just like everyone else I’m sure) am starved for human interaction and I miss the energy of the city and the music and the people so much and I’m trying to think and talk about fun and happy stuff since living in New Orleans has been such a challenge these last few months and with all this negative energy around us and these storms brewing in the gulf I just wanted to share a fun and happy story to remind myself and other people about how special this city and the people of this city are since it’s quite easy to forget these days. Anyway, stay safe friends!

The cemetery is creepy at night. Not during day.

It was funny but true if you see a pretty girl in the quarter make sure its a girl if your interested. Some you will never know.

He don't know shit. It's NOLA

I'm with you, Andrew. Came to leave the same comment.

except #4, that kind of generally just decency

@David Taylor For some strange reason, a lot of tourists seem to think anything goes in New Orleans.

*advice. Not advise.

Will they mug you or kick your ass if you acknowledge them?

Same question

@@marcoabreo6506 muggings don’t happen in New Orleans bro

@@marcoabreo6506 Nah thell just tell you random things just ignore them and keep walking people just like talking.

Why

Steve M from a Saints fan from NOLA: YES

Please. Don’t. Remind me.

No that's in LA if you talking to a saints fan. We really don't like cheaters. Long history of being cheated or descendent of cheaters.

That part

elaine allen 💀

elaine allen also, don’t assume all of NOLA IS the FQ

FR! The French Quarter is so much more than Bourbon street

Also...don't bother going to Bourbon

elaine allen chill on bourbon if you love the smell of piss

Haha same!

Same, lol. I was so curious even though I’ve lived here my entire life.

I swear this man doesn’t miss with his advice

Me too, born and raised. When I was a little girl it was called New Or le ans.

When my siblings and I were teenagers, we weren't interested in going to our reunion in Mississippi, until my dad bribed us with a trip to new Orleans. We all went to the reunion.

Now you know what not to do in New Orleans.

One too many Hurricanes?

Patrick Moore I blacked out on pure fishbowls on Bourbon street. I woke up the next morning with throw up in my hair and a busted lip.

Yes, that sounds about right. It is hard to control liquor intake when you can get it 24/7😂

Lololol

this is so true I always wear my old shoes when I'm in the Quarters.

Wellies would be the best decision! 🤣 (Easily hosed off later!)

Combat boots.

Just wear waiters to be safe

I live in Gulfport MS but I'm in New Orleans allot

Wats a good area to stay in there

I just visited from Texas

Chelsa Cunningham outside of New Orleans

Chelsa Cunningham 😂😂 the garden district is good but expensive so is the French quarters. Irish channel is cheaper/not as nice/ but close to the ‘main’ attractions

Lmaooo yepppp

Do it...I lived there for almost 10years .. just me..my family was up north... there's no place like it..I never felt lonely or alone...it's where I belong..I came to SW Florida because my boyfriend was running fishing boat from here..he passed away and I'm here alone now..hate it..it's paradise but doesn't have the energy that New Orleans has... hopefully I can get finances in order to get home..his cancer and the pandemic shut down has me digging out of hole money wise or I'd be back in my city...so yeah I say go for it!😁❤️

I am starting my research and wanting to live there myself.

@@sharibowman9341 sorry to hear about that. I'm an empty nester myself. Just looking for a forever home with some fun energy. I'm an old Hippy Gypsy born in the 60's. And I love warm rains. The thought of all the festival sounds fun to me even if I can go to all of them.

I Was a tourist in New Orleans and no offense I was pretty disappointed walking smelling weed tobacco and a lot of bums in the streets the only good thing in New Orleans are a few restaurants and the boat through the Mississippi River

I visited and yes there are bad smells, kinda crowded, but SO BEAUTIFUL AND UNIQUE! Theres good food, super cool shops, and so many things to do. The majority of the people I met were sooooo nice and the small few who weren't are not a common problem. OVERALL TOTALLY AMAZING!

Bruh there was a bum sitting down and flaming and rapping at people on sight

People were very nice and the hospitality was incredible We were impressed!

@really dude Half the time, you don't notice it until it's in high 80% or in the 90% region when it's really hot outside

I’m from Florida and I’m going to NOLA in like two weeks 😅 I’ll let y’all know if it’s any different

@@naomixuoo8438 i know i’m 2 years late lmao but was it any different?

Can you recommend any hotels with a balcony view of the parades ?

I agree! I’m live in TN where we are use to 79% humidity... so if you’re already accustomed to it, it’s really not a problem and definitely worth saving some coins. Hotel Jung is awesome btw.

It is horribly hot !

It’s not a trolley. It’s a street car. And never forget that, hun!

Yeah. We're not far away and I usually find a good room in the Garden District then day pass everywhere. Leave the car where it's protected and have a blast. Grew up all over the city, so I must have the vibe. No one ever tries to hustle me.

Local born and bred...don't call them trolleys. They're streetcars. And they ride on the neutral ground, not the median.

It's a streetcar.

Where or how do you get a day pass?

Algiers Point in a Airbnb is awesome too!!!

@@michaelparker4457 Algiers Point is beautiful but not the best if you want to stay out into the wee hours of the morning. Gotta take a taxi or uber to get back.

JLD Reactions true that! But in my old age, that’s ok (most of the time!)🤪

Why not the French quarter ?

@@fridads15 noisy and expensive

Lol, right.

New Orleans, the city with 100 pronunciations.

Just don’t say NAWLINS 😩

New Aw-Lens

The older new orleanians do tend to say "new orleeeans"

I have worked in your area in August..it can be hot and humid. My wife is from there and I am from New Orleans. I took her to New Orleans and she almost died. You can walk out your home to your car parked outside your door and be ringing wet in 60 seconds. I worked outdoors in New Orleans and learning to live with the heat and humidity just means you just deal with the humidity. Sunny day humidity is usually 95% and higher in July and August.

PCB here💯

I'm in south florida. summers are gross

right?

They are working hard. I really love the live music

Good point!! Some tourists just stand there, blocking the sidewalk, like no one lives here.

I love this comment. I directed an art gallery in the Quarter, and what I always had to tell myself is many of the visitors were not used to walking on sidewalks. New Yorkers know the ballet of side walking. People from small towns just don't understand. Just smile and walk around them. Nola is a great town.

Born and Bred in New Orleans. I'm a senior that uses a cane and a gentleman helped me up on the trolley. When I said "thank you so much", he said "Your welcome darlin". Well, I loved it !!! 😂. It was so warm and friendly. They can call me darlin all day!!🤣🤣

no...it's dawlin"

Also, baby. I hear that one most. And everyone says it. Men and women to men and women. So you should probably say that to men as well not to be offended.

Yeah, baby!!

Baby, honey, sweetie, darlin

What is shoe dudes i saw many comments about someone who asks you where did u buy your shoes i didn't get that can u explain what is it about pls😊

@@bitaghods9197 It is explained in the vid.

There are really good restaurants on the North Shore.

Im going this april! Can't wait

It really can be an evil place at night. I work on bourbon. Jekyll and Hyde. People offer drugs, women are taken, we have shootings and violence constantly. 2 weeks ago a group of men came in with weapons/drugs and attacked 7 of our staff members. The prostitutes drug and rob men in their hotel rooms. It’s nice if you get used to figuring out who will and will not be an issue.

I think it's the homicide capital of the entire country.

@@heatherlindsey971 Eek

While New Orleans can be wild. But. so can a lot of cities be wild.. In the USA meth has a big hold of a lot of our youth and even some of our middle age fools. . I fell free to go anywhere at anytime because I carry a strong pepper spray .a high volt taser and a 9 mm. ..about 3 months ago some space cadet jumped over the wall in my yard. and he was screwing around in my yard. . I went out to send a message to him so I stuck my 9 mm in his nose and he was like crazy trying to climb back over the wall . He could not climb it fast enough .lol . And he has not been caught trespassing in my yard again. nor anyone else But it will happen again I know.

I can confirm this is good advice. The crappiest looking places usually have the best food.

@@CGarrett I'm always packing 😉

Oop they said that too my dad

I was just there yesterday on a day trip. I had no idea y everyone was wearing red dresses, it was the red dress run. There's always something lol. And it was so humid and hot but wasnt too bad since im from Mississippi

I agree! Disney World in the summertime is a WAY worse experience, yet people do that without a second thought!

@@nosecretstours Good lord, I would NEVER dream of doing even one day at Disney World in July or August. My crazy father dragged me to Orlando when he was visiting his relatives in Tampa and Miami and wanted to check out the park. Of course, you'd be thinking: why would a teen not want to see DW?! The crowds and the oppressive heat. It was so crowded that it was impossible to walk without bumping into at least two people. For me, the adult version of Disney is New Orleans. I sooo need to find time to come back here some day. Also, I have a personal reason: I would like to come and pay my respects to my favorite writer: Anne Rice. Her popularity has NOT diminished since her passing. In fact, her book series Lives of the Mayfair Witches is a top TV show on the AMC channel. Alexandra Daddario in fact, won the lead role as Rowan Mayfair. Harry Hamlin is also in the show.

Hii. May I know the best English course in new Orleans? Cause I am looking for one

I’m a Texan gonna visit this weekend is it expensive?

@@AudreyRodriguezAR Yes, it sadly is expensive, but as soon as you step in, it gives you old New Orleans glamour. If you want to go all out and for the experience, I would stay there. It’s right in the heart of the French Quarter and you’re walking distance from every good tourist spot. I would try eating at Ed’s Oyster Bar if you can and Royal House (caddy corner to the hotel!).
