Lafitte Greenway 4K Ride - New Orleans Tour

The Lafitte Greenway is a long, green biking and walking trail from the French Quarter to Mid-City. It's a useful way between these neighborhoods, and along the way, it's got huge sculptures and murals, cafes and restaurants, and some beautiful landscaping, plus vestiges of a 1700s shipping canal.

I walked the Lafitte Greenway this week based on your recommendation. It is really nice and I enjoyed the entire round trip. Thanks for informing me of this great new N.O. feature.

[@JLOakcliff]

So enjoined! Thanks you !!!

[@donnamartin2580]

So much knowledge! You are awesome sauce!😁

[@jtdavis62]

Greenway Plaza is the site of the old Orleans Parish Brake Inspection Station, where everyone had to have their car inspected annually (headlights, horn, turn signals, etc.), when you were issued your "brake tag" that had to be displayed in the corner of your windshield to the driver's left. I think it was closed sometime in the 1990s.

[@katebarker1983]

Really enjoyed this one! Thank you Andrew, for your impeccable work! I adore the historical aspects that you pepper through your tours so smoothly! 👏✨

So good to see you Andrew! Always the very best in everything you do. Could you please, if possible, do a video on scooter or moped tours about the city. I of course know this is Tours by Foot but for someone with mobility issues information on this would be invaluable. Where to ride, rent and tour would be so very much appreciated. All you guys keep up the excellent videos! Thank you.

[@msanto01]

Hey Andrew will you be doing any in person tours this weekend the 30th through July 3 I’ll be there for essence Fest and would love to come to one of your personal tours🥰🥰🥰

[@adeder1625]

Another great video Andrew. I'm heading to New Orleans in April and I'd like to take a bike down Esplanade to the City Park from Marigny and then return down the Lafitte trail. Is this a good route? Any concerns/recommendations? Thank you

[@FreeToursbyFootHQ]

Sounds great!

[@Grahzzyhardcore]

is this walkable in a day just wondering

[@dreamup8431]

Andrew, you’re so cute! Question, what area of NOLA would you live if cost wasn’t a question?

[@caramelcooler9710]

Do you mean gentrification...... 👀🙃

[@_sav.nasty_]

Lose the fake “y’all”’s and you got yourself a decent video

[@mickeythompson24]

I saw you were looking for new ideas for videos on previous one I watched. I'm new to channel from the West Bank. Are you familiar with the restaurant named Moscas on Hwy. 90 east in Avondale? It's an old mafia hangout and has a lot of history. I've heard the original owner chef who's family still runs it. Was Al Capone's personal chef before coming here back then. Family may or may not be willing to discuss. But worth a shot. Do some research you'll see the significance and it's cash only so bring cash if you go? Also Old Point Bar and Old Gretna would be two good videos I believe. Can mention Gretna Fest, Numerous restaraunt's, old, Da Wabbit, The Real Pie Man, RiverShack, Common Grounds, Gattusos, La Fiesta oldest Mexican restaurant on stumpf blvd. courthouses in Algiers point and Gretna historic Courthouse, Mcdonaughville', Federal City, Mardi Gras World, Underneath the CCC is a nice view I bet viewers would love. Old steam locomotive that's in Downtown Gretna, Condos in Algiers on the river, there's a place to eat at the foot of the ferry in Algiers as well. It's comparative to the city with the greenery and house designs. First settlement on the West Bank as well. Also Tony Mandenas Italian restaurant in Gretna,David Crockett fire house. Oldest in the nation.
