DO IT PEOPLE. DON'T BE A CHEAP ASS.
A tour guide who overflows with pride, passion and knowledge about his place. When he shared his stories he seemed to be glowing with enthusiasm.
I recently went to New Orleans for my birthday. Before we went I viewed a couple of your walking tours. Thank you for these they were very helpful. We had a great time.❤
Belated Happy Birthday! Glad to hear that our videos helped and you enjoyed watching them. If you haven't already done so, hopefully, you can check out our other virtual tours of New Orleans ua-cam.com/play/PLpNEdLF6RWV3oDPK7SD9GOttlhvaGBsh2.html.There is more where this came from.
Andrew, I think New Orleans has unique culture, history and architecture as well!
Love these NOLA tours. I worked in the bars in the French Quarter from 1999-2013 and it’s kind of sad seeing everything all boarded up and closed
A lot of places were boarded up in preparation for a hurricane.....Louisiana was in the path of 8 named storms this season and 5 of them hit, quite a busy time! Some owners paid artists to paint on their boards for decoration.
I have been watching a live camera set up on the Cats meow karaoke bar and its all up and running now,...Strangely not for Fat Tuesday( Mardi Gras) but evening and weekends have been lively !
@@KalOrtPor ~ Those businesses were boarded up to protect them while they were closed for quarantine. From either hurricanes or ne'er do wells.
Andrew, New Orleans is a town in rich history and tradition!
Amazing video. I’m from New Orleans and super homesick so I appreciate all the footage and your knowledge!!
Thank you for the kind words. So glad we can help you feel back at home.
And if you haven't done so yet, check out our video tour of the French Quarter ua-cam.com/video/7LvsKLW09tA/v-deo.html and another on the Garden District ua-cam.com/video/kAiLpTt-ydw/v-deo.html. We are about to publish one for City Park and soon one for a cemetery. So, be sure to like and subscribe or just check back in a week.
Instead of beignets poor boys!
Tujaque’s for crawfish bisque, jambalaya and bread pudding!
So why aren’t you going to blues clubs. Funky pirate etc. those are the places we went to. Yep Ben to the tropical island. Yes. Good music. Zydigo
Can you do a tour of the shot gun houses?
I live in the Bourbon capital in KY! I love everything about Louisiana and I had no idea they were connected!!
I love Bourbon street! I grew up here.
I lived in the Quarter. Gotta laugh at the "verbal exchange" bright and early in the background 🤣
Pat OBrien’s has a great fire fountain in their courtyard and the Dueling Pianos.
The dueling pianos is a fun, if usually crowded, experience. Thanks for sharing that.
Brilliant! You know so much - such a delight to watch.
Thank you Gavin!
Thanks, Andrew, your videos are great! Takes me right back to my childhood home. I'd love to see you do one of each street in the Quarter, the Treme, Uptown, Bayou St. John . . . basically every neighborhood in NOLA.
Thank you, Lorna. We do plan on creating many more videos of New Orleans. We'll eventually get up videos for Treme, Bayou St. John, and even more streets in the Quarter. Stay tuned!
Andrew I have become a huge fan of your channel, love your style of passing on your knowledge of this city we love
Very professional and informative tour guide. Thank you.
Andrew thank you very much for such a wonderful tour 🙏
The street’s name always fascinated me.
LOVE it!!!🎉
Thanks again for watching! We also have a channel in New York ua-cam.com/channels/nSs5U6ne0ReUb_7xRbQRuA.html as well as New Orleans ua-cam.com/users/FreeToursbyFootHQ and London ua-cam.com/users/FreeToursbyFootLondon, in case any of these cities are of interest to you.
Just recently discovered this channel. Love it! I will probably never get to visit New Orleans so this is great. Loving the old buildings and glad to see they survived Katrina. Sad , however to see the graffiti around the Bourbon St, area.
Thank you, Melissa. That means a lot to us. If you haven't already done so, check out our other New Orleans videos, all led by Andrew ua-cam.com/play/PLpNEdLF6RWV3oDPK7SD9GOttlhvaGBsh2.html.

Great job thanks!
17:35 Zydeco really never gets the recognition that it deserves. Everything is all about Jazz. The first time that I heard Zydeco, I loved it. Fun Fact: There's a cheesy post-Wall Germany movie about an old man who secretly (when the two Germanys were separated) gets a radio channel from Louisiana. He starts to copy Zydeco on his own accordion. When the Wall falls, he heads to Louisiana and becomes a Zydeco sensation.
What is the name of that movie, please?

Great tour! Thanks :)
Our pleasure!
Andrew , how on earth long did it take you to learn all this info ? It just pours out of your mouth . Great job ! Are you a history teacher ? I'm really enjoying your videos , Thank You . I've always wanted to go to New Orleans . Do Savanah & Charleston . Never been to those places either.
Thanks for the kind words - Andrew is a tour guide in New Orleans with Free Tours by Foot. Have to know a lot to lead walking tours! We hope to have a video about Charleston coming soon!
Love Lafitte's Blacksmith shop. I'll be trying some of these other eateries and drinkeries in April. Thanks for the tips!
Thanks again for watching James! If you know of anyone else who might also enjoy these videos, please share us with them. We would really appreciate that! Thank you.
I am so glad to have come across your channel. I am looking to move to New Orleans and have enjoyed the history lessons. I am excited about taking an actual tour when I move. Also, thank you for covering Chris Owens. I have passed by that place several times during my travels to New Orleans never checking it out. To my surprise when I learned Chris Owens was a woman. I just read up on her...beautiful soul.

I like the Dueling Pianos, not the one in Pat Obriens (Which is fun just super crowded) but a smaller bar...I think it's The Ticklers bar. Always fun especially when Saints has a game night.
I love these tours - so interesting and informative. I'd really love to see a virtual tour of my favorite place in NOLA - Frenchmen Street!
Thanks for watching. We will film a Frenchmen Street video.
We published it a month ago. Did you see it?
@@FreeToursbyFootHQ I did, thank you!
Gracias andrew !!

Thank you. We will pass the compliments on to Andrew. Please do share our channel with anyone that you think might also enjoy it.

Thanks for the great tour. I’m from Tuscaloosa, Alabama. We have been to New Orleans many time. Especially enjoy Southern Decadence so thank for going all the way down to gay neighborhood. Took relatives once and had to explain the neighborhood with out telling them to much. Love New Orleans. We have reservations Thanksgiving weekend but not sure. Trying to see what’s open.
Going all the way down in the Gay Neighborhood?
@@rayg3354 Yes, we do.
Thank you for the tour! I miss my home from a past life
Glad you enjoyed it and glad we could bring back some nice memories.
That was amazing! Thanks so much.

Just curious, is Andrew available for private tours of the city? I really enjoy these you tubes and really miss the city and can't wait to return!
@@joejames2167 Yes, he is. Send me an email at stephen@freetoursbyfoot.com and I'll forward it to Andrew.
This is an awesome channel. All three of them are great, but Andrew could see Andrew hosting a Travel Channel show.
That's our fear :)
Thank you so much its a place I would so like to visit I'm from the UK I'm getting older now and I have arthris bad so to see this is as close as I think I will ever get so amazing to watch for me
I LOVE Easter at Chris Owens!
Mysterious Puddle Street.
YEP!
Thanks so much man!

Wow... So Clean 👍
Yes, thanks. That was lockdown time. Here's a video from April ua-cam.com/video/vyD9ndDi_Cc/v-deo.html

Yay fritzels!
Thanks for watching the video. Glad you enjoyed watching it!
Hey anyone remember the Strip Club that had the girls on a swing that swung out of a window onto Bourbon street. When I was little it was real ladies then it changed to mannequins sitting on the swings. There were always two. The good old days of NOLA. ⚜️⚜️⚜️⚜️⚜️⚜️
Yep! It was called Big Daddy's. It was a New Orleans Icon since the 1950's. Many people on our tours recall it as one of their New Orleans memories.
@@Gueygirl1 Thanks Sarah for the info. Going to bourbon as a kid with your family was like no big deal. Parents were way cooler then. We had to take family to see it whenever they visited from out of town. We did the French quarter tour that always ended with Cafe Du monde . That was the best part. ⚜️
Brilliant….

Luv it 💓
Thanks for watching and for recommending us. We really appreciate that.
When I used to live in New Orleans...when I grocery shopped at a Swegman's Grocery store, it was a nickle for a beer, while shopping! Imagine that! It's true!
I was in New Orleans twice. Fun both times.
Agreed. You should visit a third time, Marica.
Vary Good!!!
Thanks!

Actually, Earl opened the first Tropical Isle on Toulouse Street off Bourbon, then the second one opened on Bourbon Street years later. I heard that the Toulouse Street bar closed since I last lived there, so the newer one on Bourbon is actually the third.
I would follow him anywhere! Nola is nice too :-)
Never seen the streets in the Quarter look so clean. Ha!
Fortunately or unfortunately, depending on how you look at it, you are correct.
Reports have stated that since the pandemic started, food sources of the Quarter's rat population have dwindled, and the pesky rodents have been moving to outlying areas of the city to compensate for this.
Cafe beignet is the best place for beignets 👍😊
Many would agree with you. We created a post on this very topic that you might enjoy

I love this! I am from Germany and have plans to visit in March. (If the virus lets me) how is the situation now? Everything open again or already reclosed? ❤️ thanks for that video
Hi Lea. The situation is much like in Germany. Carnival is still on and we expect March to be open. Tschuess!

We have a post where you could start exploring from freetoursbyfoot.com/things-to-do-in-new-orleans/.
Andrew, is the brass band still playing during covid?
Hey Elizabeth! We’ve got brass bands playing in the Quarter again at this point (late 2020), but I’ve been seeing them in Jackson Square and by Cafe du Monde (during the day) more than on Bourbon. But spring is always when our outdoor music scene is the strongest - fingers crossed that we’ll be in a position for that to be true again in 2021.
Liked the tour. Brought me back to younger years. But I gotta ax (ask) you if you really didn't know who Al Hirt was??? He's in the park with Pete Fountain...
Hi Joe. Glad you liked the tour. I can assure you that Andrew knows who Al Hirt was and which statue he is. He just happened to mention the two on the outside.
The blacksmith shop is probably one of the most haunted . I would know , I lived in Chris Ownes building for about a year
Did you see any ghosts?
Are there really states in the USA where you can't drink alcohol in the passenger seat? Excellent tour - very knowledgeable guide and not an 'uuumm' to be heard :)
Excellent tour! Thanks. Do you give NOLA tours in person?
Andrew does. He is one of our main tour guides. He also offers private tours.
@@FreeToursbyFootHQ That's good to know, my fiance and I are visiting New Orleans in the winter.
Yo make a tiktok out of that Chris Owens segment and you'll go so viral
Much has changed since Katrina - - and now the virus. Much remains the same. The best value for a visitor would be coming not for Mardi Gras but St. Patrick’s!
Hi Andrew, I'm Dennis from Cleveland, Ohio. I heard New Orleans was shutdown 8 months ago!
Hi Dennis! Parts of the city are open with certain safety protocols. This was one of our first virtual videos so more things have reopened since the video but, like many places, we’re keeping an eye on changes each day.
I’m glad I born and raised in Louisiana we have so much fun
Ironically there are no smooth roads in New Orleans
You neglected to mention Al Hirt's statue. Jumbo was one of the greatest trumpeters to come out of New Orleans! Catch Pete Fountain and Al Hilton playing together on UA-cam...It's fantastic!!!
Andrew knows Al Hirt. This was one of the first videos we produced and we were just getting used to being succinct with our content. He just got sidetracked there.
Mine and others tour was soured by the packs of Bro's trying to hustle and shake you down. Stalking
You must know how to get around safely. Ask the concierge at your hotel. He/she will give you a map of the safe areas.
Do you have an updated video now that things are opened back up and Covid is not what it used to be?
We don't have a video specifically talking about what's open and what's about to return. Things are changing rapidly, though it's safe to say that most things are now open. We did film this video on April 9th of Bourbon St. ua-cam.com/video/vyD9ndDi_Cc/v-deo.html
How was your Thanksgiving, Andrew?
Royal is a much more interesting street. The convent hotel Bourbon Orleans is gorgeous inside the ballroom upstairs is stunning.
Lol, reminds me of the movie Gypsy, “ You gotta have a gimmick”, burlesque girls.
No Lafittes is the olds bar on burbon st
I love New Orleans, it's music, it's food, it's voodo, it's stories in history, and the love of this city! I pray that it survives this climate change, because it's really bad what our country is going thru now! We must stop fracking and big oil, now! I want my birds chirping at my window when I wake up, and I want to see butterfly's in my garden with bee's buzzing around...I want to see Polar Bears in Ice Land, we MUST DO SOME THING NOW!
We're a bit worried too, especially since the land in New Orleans sits so low next to the water. Some of the most important historical moments in the history of our country took place in this city, and it would be sad to see places like the Cabildo under water.
Thanks for the comment!
All these tours are about 2 years old, is Andrew still doing tours?
There was a new video of his out about 3 months ago
👍🏻
Whats the vampire speak easy called? 😂
Are the places boarded up because of COVID?
Yes, for the most part.
Andrew lookin like a snack. There I said it!
I would love to bring my granddoughter there to see it and would be grate to tast the food
We hope to show some good places to eat when you get here.
In Mississippi you can drink while driving as long as you can pass a breathe test.
Andrew's a babe.
You're not wrong..
Did they clean the streets for the video?
No, but we filmed early in the morning and the city was relatively empty when we filmed in the summer of 2020.
@@FreeToursbyFootHQ That is the cleanest I have ever seen Bourbon Street.
Thanks for this tour. Would love to see one for gay nightlife too
One for consideration for sure. It's tough filming in bars. Lots of legal issues. We are thinking about it.
The Mrs. says: Way, way, to many counties, all you need for such a small area is an East County, a West County, a North County, a South County. A lot less paper work that's for sure and only four Mayors and Probably much better Law enforcement and more accountability on what's going on with each county.
Galatoire's opened in 1905, not 1909.
Thanks for the correction.
Tropical Isle Bayou Club has Cajun Music not much Zydeco. There is a difference.
No the French quarter start at Iberville st not canal st
Would love to hear what your saying. Why don't you fix the sound.
There isn't anything to fix. I believe the issue is on your end.
It sounds okay from my iPhone
