My Top Thing to Do in New Orleans Right Now – Episode #105

My Top Thing to Do
in New Orleans Right Now

Today’s show is the answer to a question I got from my dental hygienist recently. She asked, “what one thing would you recommend people do in New Orleans right now, beyond Bourbon Street?”

In this episode, I answer Kim’s question and tell you why and how I would do it.


Beyond Bourbon Street Sponsors

Two Chicks Walking Tours If you love New Orleans, you’ve probably wandered through the Garden District. It is beautiful, but it really comes to life when you have a guide who can tell you about the history and about the people who live there.

On a Two Chicks Walking tour you learn about the architecture, the residents and more. You also get to tour Lafayette Cemetery, just across the street from Commander’s Palace.

Two Chicks keeps their tour groups small and offers a more intimate experience than most. You’ll have time to ask your questions and really walk away getting an insider’s perspective of the Garden District.

Two Chicks also offers tours of St. Louis Cemetery #1 and the Ladies of the Night tour. Whatever you choose, know you will be in great hands and will have a wonderful time. Use code BEYOND and save 15%. twochickswalkingtours.com

The Old 77 is ideally situated in the Warehouse District, just three blocks from the French Quarter. It features a variety of pet-friendly rooms, the award-winning Compere Lapin restaurant, and more.

You’ll love the location, the rooms, and the food, but the details and the service are what you’ll fall in love with!
