Being from South MS and New Orleans; I love watching Andrew’s tours. Makes me miss home and definitely makes me wanna come home and visit. Andrew’s tours are always “spot on” and real; can’t wait to come take a tour by foot in person.

Very kool! Thank you for doing this tour with and for us. I live in Mobile and we used to skirrrrt to Nola more times than not... but times have clearly changed. We came for VoodooFest the year the Beastie Boys came and we stayed in an old orphanage on Magazine Street. I remember we were close to the water from it. But still to this day i can not find it.. We stayed in the George Washington room. Their were 12 of us and they had rented a limo and just awesome times we lived and are living in.🔆♻️🔆♻️🔆 😍 State Palace Theater thooooo haha ❤🇺🇸❤🇺🇸❤

@andrewfarrier1937 3 года назад

Might have been St. Vincent’s? Lower Garden District, near the river, former orphanage, although I don’t know he name of any of their rooms. It’s under redevelopment right now, don’t know yet what it’s gonna be - so a new place to stay in new times? Thanks for the story - happy to help wake up some happy memories!

I like your "Milwaukee style" German hat. 9:40 The "Weihnachtsbaum" or Christmas tree originated in Germany not England. 13:50 Oh my gosh! You know about Crampus! 19:40 Ok Andrew, your knowledge of German culture is over the top. Frohe Weihnachten translates to happy holy nights, referring to the 12 days and nights of Christmas.

@jennifermckeithen1498 3 года назад

When I was growing up in LA, everyone told me the bonfires along the river on Christmas Eve were for people to warm up on their way to midnight Mass and back. Not sure if that's accurate, just what I was told.

@andrewfarrier1937 3 года назад

Hey Jennifer - I heard that growing up too (and also that it helped Pere Noel find you). I prob should have said, mysterious origins but multiple definite purposes :-)

@jennifermckeithen1498 3 года назад

@@andrewfarrier1937 Yeah, that was the other reason I heard growing up - to guide his sleigh! I'd forgotten all about that! XD

@sherrieshatzen3801 2 года назад

You just spoke of the Acadians who came to LA as being German. My understanding was that the Acadians were originally French Huguenots who were Protestants that were driven out of France. So where the original French inhabitants of LA were Catholic, the Acadians were Protestant.

@FreeToursbyFootHQ 2 года назад

Hi Sherrie. This video would have benefitted from a fuller explanation of Cajun origins; the German element is one of the major cultural influences on German culture, but it happens in Louisiana, after the Acadians have already arrived here.

@cajunlady4893 2 года назад

Almost all my Cajun family were Catholic. Or Methodist

I've been to New Orleans before. I remember passing by Two Jacks. If they moved out of the Quarter do you know where they moved to?

Tujague's is still in business. They moved a couple of blocks on Decatur to the Upper Quarter. They are now at 429 Decatur.

@FreeToursbyFootHQ 2 года назад

Hi Nicolas. Do you want a private tour or do you want to join one of our public Xmas themed tours? Also, which bonfire are you talking about? There are several, mostly located outside of the city.

@nicolasdesposito2362 2 года назад

@@FreeToursbyFootHQ public Xmas tour. You mentioned the bonfire across the river. Even if I see it from main side. Would like to know when they happen

Andrew how much do you think would ge a safe amount to assume a 4 day trip in New Orleans would cost?

@edlee2336 2 года назад

I stayed 5 days and spent no more than $350. There’s a lot of site seeing to enjoy and I ate out half the time and cooked the other half to save money.

@jennifersullivan8883 2 года назад

hello, your video was fabulous! We are also going to be in New Orleans 12/24 and 12/25. I was interested in a walking tour (public is fine if there is any offered?) I looked on the website and didn't see a Christmas one, but maybe I didn't look properly. Is there a Christmas tour offered? Thank you!

@ronprickett8011 2 года назад

Unfortunately Santa's Quarter didn't survive Ida and the variants of the pandemic we are hoping Central Grocery reopens after it's heavy damage. They were both reasons to return to the Quarter once you have experienced it.

@FreeToursbyFootHQ 2 года назад

Sad news about Santa's Quarters.

@calasalos 2 года назад

the Christmas tree is a germanic tradition

@farblefumble 3 года назад

Christmas trees came from Germany, not England. If you are a tourist and want to see the bonfires, just go and talk with people. You will suddenly find yourself invited into someone's house.
