After a hot summer day in sunny and humid Louisiana, you’ll be ready for a big party. In New Orleans, you can always find a place for a drink no matter what time it is. It’s no wonder traveling here is one of many great ideas for a stag party. Try drinking a mint julep to relax. As is the case in most cities, many of the clubs around here have planned events such as live music. There will be a lot of people walking down Bourbon Street. You can stop by one of the bars or just grab a beer from a window as you pass by. There are tobacconists to hand roll you a high quality premium cigar. New Orleans is a tobacco friendly city.
There are many hotels in downtown New Orleans near the French Quarter. Most hotels have bars or nightclubs. They are used to catering to the party crowd. Some have multiple bars, clubs, or lounges. So, start your search for nightly entertainment in New Orleans at your accommodation or hotel. You are bound to find some live jazz nearby. The city is full of highly skilled jazz musicians.
If you want to find the best places to get local food like beignet or seafood gumbo, just ask the locals. Your hotel valet or employee would be proud to tell you which ones have the best food. I highly recommend visiting one of Emeril Lagasse’s restaurants in town. Their chefs are the best.
If your hotel isn’t close enough to walk to restaurants near Bourbon Street, take the streetcar or a taxi. The cart is very cheap. It can travel the entire length of the car in a short time. There are many interesting buildings along the way. The Garden District is really cool. Taxis are also very cheap in New Orleans. New Orleans has really done a great job of catering to the partying traveler.
There are so many clubs along Bourbon Street. It really is the perfect place for a bachelor or bachelorette party. If you go there, you will probably see several groups doing just that. It’s so much fun to just grab a drink and hang out on the second floor balcony of an old city building throwing beads at the hot girls downstairs who ask for them.
