  • The best way to avoid danger is to keep avoiding danger in mind. Don't carry more than one credit card or more than $50 in cash. Leave expensive jewelry in your room's safe or at home. Try to have an idea of where you're going before you go and remember that if you think you've wandered into a bad neighborhood, you probably have. Also, avoid talking to street people. They are professionals at getting money out of tourists. They'll have it before you even know what happened.

     Great description of the things to do and see. It has been years since I have been here, but still remember the headache and next day hangover. What a place to party hard.

     You have a wonderful NOLA page - excellent insight with your tips, and the photos made me homesick! Well done!

     Great New Orleans Page - it's been way too long since my last visit! All the best, Eve

     Good tourist trap tip on the "haunted tours". I went on one and bailed out as soon as we got near Bourbon Street. It was awful! I love New Orleans, though...nice pages!
