Big Easy Walking Tours

Pandii's Big Easy Walking Tours Frenchmen Street Live Music Pub Crawl If you're a first timer in Nola or just looking to have a good night on the town, having a bachelorette party and don't know where to start, BOOK WITH Pandii at the Big Easy Walking Tours Frenchmen Street Live Music Pub Crawl in New OrleansShe has the BEST style, vibe and personality! Has many connections with different bartenders, club owners, jazz musicians AND she's a performer herself, which is why her tour is so LIT!!! She gives you VIP treatment - you'll get a NOLA history lesson, takes you from bar to bar, skip all lines, go straight to the bar FREE shots and much needed FREE pizza while watching some of the greatest Jazz Giants to come out of this town! I honestly feel as if our experience wouldn't have been as great if it wasn't for Pandii's knowledge of this city. Without her point of reference, we would've spend the night wondering throughout the French Quarter, hoping something sticks. We saw Grammy award winning artist at a few different places throughout the night and heard some really good music! First stop on the Tour was at The BMC Balcony music club. We learned some cool Jazz history, learned how to make Esplanade Lemonade from a fun bartender then we took our seats. All of the hubs were timed so we had a tight window to finish our drinks and enjoy a good monologue of the show. BMC was one of my personal favorites. In transition to the 2nd pub, Pandii pointed out the different artifacts and shared a few ghost tales. The our tour included other guests from Chicago that were a really good time and definitely enhanced our experience as they were the life of the party. Next up was Favela Chic, this time we got to see Pandii perform a little (because she's awesome sauce) with a few of her friends. VIP treatment once again, skipped lines, with more free shots and this time hot pizza! Pandii performed a couple of solos with the Andre Lovette Band, which was really cool. Third stop was Café Negril with the Cola Vegas Band. The performance we saw was more of the 90s cookout vibe and felt good to go down memory Lane. Lastly was the famous Blue Nile who also had really great drinks and good prices.. The Trap Orchestra was really nice and overall was a really good time. A couple of these musicians were Grammy nominated artist so it was cool to watch them perform. This tour was worth the money and will give you fun memories to tell your friends about. 10/10 for me and I've already recommend Pandii to two of my friends! :-)

Andre Lovett loves himself. Whole tour was him self promoting his band. Kept saying - do you know who I am? Did not know accurate history of the French Quarter. I could have walked to those bars on my own. No reserved seating and 1 free drink that was not great.

This tour is a MUST!We did the "Bourbon Street thing" on our first night in the city. But we are in our 40s and were looking for a more mature experience. And, Big Easy Walking Tours provided it. Pandi was not only adorable but an amazing tour guide. I LOVE how she sequenced the spots we visited with so much intention. Each one was unique and I must admit that they got progressively better. And Pandi can sing!I don't think I would have enjoyed Frenchmen St as much had I not done this tour.

For the love of music this walking tour was awesome. Starting with our guide Pandi, knowledgeable of music and happenings in the area. Highly recommended the tour to find your music. It covered the diversity of music.

Absolutely loved this and one of my favorite adventures in New Orleans. Everybody around town knows Quay (our tour guide) and he made the experience of venturing to several jazz clubs so fun and seamless, with some additional stops along the way like the Frenchmen art market (we partook in the "glitter buffet" lol). The tour included a couple drinks, cover charges, and VIP seating at the jazz clubs. We went to BMC, favela chic, cafe negril, and blue Nile. Absolutely amazing and so much fun! Highly recommend this tour! You'll learn all about jazz, check out some great venues, get some dancing in, and have a blast and authentic New Orleans experience along the way!

In my years of living in the area this was the best tour I've been on. I like to head into town and act like like a tourist and take part in the fun. The guide was amazing, knew a lot of information (and was actually correct information unlike these others that make up stuff), and knew how to keep the group entertained. We never spent too long at one location and found some really cool people along the way. I would definitely do this again even if it were the same places and musicians just for the experience. I highly recommend booking with them when you are in the city. You'll get to hear different groups and visit places you probably never knew to go.

I had so much fun on my Frenchmen Street Live Music Pub Crawl tour. Quay is a great tour guide. He helped us get comfortable as a group, and then took us to our first bar. There we learned how to make a cocktail from the general manager, and drank as we listened to great live music. Then at the second bar, we listened to more fantastic live music and had a celebratory shot. Quay hand picked each of the following clubs we went to. He took us up to the front by the stage every time and it felt like we were VIP! He knew so many of the musicians and street performers, it felt like I was in the know with him. Thanks for a great tour, Quay.

Clay is the best tour leader in NOLA! He did a fantastic job! This tour was so much fun! If you don't go on this tour, you are missing out! The music was a awesome. We had a blast!

Having to visit New Orleans for the first time and seeing a lot of different things, this tour was great. The tour guide Pandit was very informative and very friendly. I never knew what to expect. Each club had an experience that I would highly recommend to anyone who enjoys great live music, especially never hearing them perform ever. My husband and I really recommend trying this out. Of course this was done in the summer but since it took place at night, you can still feel some breeze in the summer air. Please try it out....you won't be disappointed

I really enjoyed myself . everything was wonderful . I liked all the bands we saw live .
