There is more to New Orleans than meets the eye. New Orleans is so much more than the Bourbon Street scenes you see on the national news once a year on Mardi Gras. It’s a 300-year-old city made up of vibrant neighborhoods, diverse populations, and traditions layered upon each other. If you’re not careful, you’ll spend too much of your time on Bourbon Street, or in the nearby run-of-the-mill tourist shops. Sure, you’ll have a good time, but you’ll miss the essence of New Orleans. It’s not hard to have a completely different experience, if you know where to go and what to eat, see, and do. What you need is a local, a New Orleanian, who can point you in the right direction, explain how to pronounce our street names, and save you time. It’s easy to come to the Crescent City and never venture far from Bourbon Street. That’s a mistake. While our famous street deserves your attention, there is far more to explore, and none of it is far away. In this book, we’ll help you explore New Orleans based on the advice of insiders, locals like me. You’ll learn how to make the most of your time, how best to experience the city, and what to do when you’re torn between this or that. We’ll point out the things we’d show you if you came to visit us for a weekend, a week, or a month! We’ve done this for more than 30 years for our friends, and for the last several years through the Beyond Bourbon Street podcast. Sit back, relax, and get ready to have the time of your life.
