Leave New Orleans With a Story.
Leave New Orleans with a story and you will have good memories that will last you the rest of your life. I know. I live here. I see it happen every day.
Nobody expires on their deathbed with a contented smile while remembering the time they made a fool of themselves on Bourbon Street. Trust me. People who remember what they did on Bourbon Street keep blushing long after they’re dead. It’s embarrassing to die with a bittersweet grimace. Don’t do that. Leave New Orleans with a happy story, not the plot of an Adam Sandler movie.
Visit Bourbon Street, but, don’t get swept up in the drunken debauchery that you see in the movies and on TV. There is more to New Orleans than bad behavior. Do you go to the main street in your hometown to lift your shirt to strangers on balconies? When was the last time you got stumbling pass-out drunk in your zip code? We don’t do that here, either.
NEW ORLEANS IS FULL OF SURPRISES
New Orleans is civilized. The only New Orleanians you’ll find on Bourbon Street are the people working there. Somebody’s got to do it. You should leave New Orleans with a story you aren’t ashamed to tell your mother. Get off the typical tourist treadmill.
New Orleans is a kaleidoscope of a city. Pleasant surprises are around every corner. Use your better intuition and stay at the #1-rated small personalized hotel in the city to really learn what it means to fall in love with authentic New Orleans. People choose to make their home in New Orleans for very good reasons. You can find out for yourself. Visit like you belong here. You do. Be a New Orleanian, at least for a couple of days.
