From the sounds of local music in Lafayette Square to the delicious cannolis at Angelo Brocato’s, I’ll reveal the unexpected and affordable ways to experience the magic of the city - so get ready for an adventure!
In this episode of my podcast, I dive into the fantastic world of budget-friendly activities in New Orleans.
As a local, I’ve discovered many hidden treasures and affordable experiences that can make a trip to this charming city enjoyable and wallet-friendly.
I share my top picks for things to do that are either free or nearly free, including delicious food options like Central Grocery muffulettas, Roman candy, and snowballs from various locations.
I also highlight various picturesque spots for exercise and exploration, such as City Park, Bayou St. John, and the Couturie Forest. The affordability and accessibility of many of these activities make it easy for visitors to explore and enjoy the city without breaking the bank.
So, if you’re a budget-conscious traveler seeking local experiences, this episode is a must-listen.
Listen to today’s episode and walk away with dozens of things to eat, see, do, and explore. I do have one confession… well, two actually.
First, we cover far more than 52 things. It is probably more like 152 if you added up every festival and every variation, but who has time for that?
Second, not everything we discuss is free. I set a threshold of $6.
Why $6, you ask? Listen to the episode and find out!
