Brothels, Strip Clubs, and Drag Queen Tour of the French Quarter

About this experience

What you'll do:

\Join a walk by the shells of old brothels, burlesque clubs, and historic gay bars on a tour that places them and the cultures within them at the center of the stage. Prepare to delve into the rich history of sex work, the art of burlesque, the lives of queer community, the mafia, and the pivotal role that New Orleans played in shaping these cultural movements. Your tour will be guided by a fashionable and hilarious host who has been preserving the oral history of the filthy side of New Orleans for five years.

Why we love it for your party:

  • Learn the history of all the clubs you’ll be hitting up later with the perfect walk through the history of nightlife in New Orleans.
  • It’s a perfect combination of education and a party with several bar stops along the way.

This was great! Quin was wonderful and so knowledgeable. She was easy to follow and so engaging with our group. We had some people with health issues (back pain & stomach pain) and she made sure they were comfortable. This was my favorite tour of the trip! You won’t regret booking this.

Best History Tour ever. I'm literally a person with a degree in history. I take factory tours and history and cultural tours for fun and this one tops them all. By centering folks who have rarely been centered on and reminding us of where our favorite things like jazz music really came from, this tour takes the cake. I cannot recommend this tour enough. Plus is was hilarious.

Quinn’s tour was informative, witty, and important. Our group learned so much about the “forgotten history” of the area. She had us laughing and crying within the same tour! You will not be disappointed booking with Quinn. She was a delight to have met. Thank you Quinn!
