  • In today's video, you are going to take a kayak tour on Bayou St. John, one of New Orleans' native waterways. MORE NOLA VIDEO TOURS - • New Orleans Virtual Tours .
    Many people who visit New Orleans take swamp tours are nearby swampland, but unbeknownst to many, there is a natural wetland right in the heart of the city, right next to City Park and accessible by the streetcar.
    This area is even older than the French Quarter and there are many stories to tell. You are going to hear these stories while paddling your way down the bayou with the great tour guides at Kayak-Iti-Yat Tours kayakitiyat.com/.
    Learn about the history of Bayou St. John, the area's development, as well as the birds and animals that make it their home, including alligators. You will also make a stop at the Lafitte Greenway. So, join them and Free Tours by Foot on this great adventure.

    Love your videos. I've NEVER seen a ship on Bayou St. John like the one shown at the beginning.
    But apparently back in the day it was a regular thing. This is a ten minute walk from my house and I did not know much of this history. Thanks.

    Wonderful video!!! I’d certainly love to make it a point to spend some time there to explore the city. Most of my time in New Orleans was spent in and out of the children’s hospital as a kid, though born and raised in West Baton Rouge. Living in Kansas City now, and yet again home sick watching your videos. Keep up the great work!

    Thank you so much for the great tours...
    I love all the scenery, homes, and the history of Louisiana, especially New Orleans.
    I love alligators. I collect alligator figurines

  • @toddgiaro7657
    @toddgiaro7657 Před 3 lety +1

    Loved the kayak tour but I’m so terrified of alligators I’d be a nervous wreck the whole time! Lol, my partner and I have came into New Orleans from Biloxi on hwy 90 a few times and although it’s a beautiful drive I always tell him, if we get a flat I’m not getting out! That’s just me, other people who have been with us appreciate what a wonderful drive hwy 90 truly is.

    • @FreeToursbyFootHQ
      @FreeToursbyFootHQ  Před 3 lety +3

      You would be safe. The alligators stay to themselves and there aren't that many in the bayou.

  • @andrewterrebonne7015
    @andrewterrebonne7015 Před 3 lety +1

    Up to the end of the 40's there were boat and ship repair facilities along the bayou. Also, the silver "trees" at the Galatoire house were from the Wonderwall of the 1984 World's Fair. No mention of the Pitot House or the "Spanish Customs House" and other ante bellum homes?

    I lived in the area during the mid to late 80s and loved it. (on Harding at Dumaine) I understand there was much destruction in this area during Katrina. How bad was it? Thanks for the info!

    Why!?! Andrew why!?! I started kayaking a year ago and I fell in love with the sport. Google Turnip Rock, Port Austin MI on Lake Huron. I recently went there. I paddle every chance I get too, depends on the weather of coarse.
    Anyways, I ask why because like I’ve mentioned before my sig. wants to move to NOLA. 🤦🏻‍♀️ Another reason he’ll put on the pro list. Hahaha! Yet again another flipping awesome vid. !

    • @FreeToursbyFootHQ
      @FreeToursbyFootHQ  Před 3 lety +1

      Unless you fell on top of one, you have nothing to worry about. There aren't as many alligators in the city's waters as there are outside the city limits.

      There are a few relatively small and frightful alligators in Bayou St. John.

    My feelings are completely hurt. I want to do this but you must pay for 2 paddlers. I wish I had a twin

    • @FreeToursbyFootHQ

      Contact them and see if you can be put on a list for solo paddlers to be paired with other solo paddlers.
