One of the most iconic streets in the world, and the center of New Orleans party scene, Bourbon Street is located in the Big Easy s oldest neighborhood, the French Quarter. The street extends for 13 blocks and is lined with bars, restaurants and souvenir shops.

Bourbon Street Tip:
One easy way to avoid the bulk of the crowds is to stick to visiting during the day, when it s relatively quiet (one major exception: during Mardi Gras, when more than 100,000 people swarm the street). The hot and sticky months of June through September are low season, as are December, January and Lent, the seven-week period after the festivities of Mardi Gras.
