There's another Cafe Du Monde in the Riverwalk Mall near the cruise terminal that's normally no line and you can walk out by the river to eat them. Not many tourists know about that one. Enjoyed the video!

Hi

I am rewatching these cause I am going on the Dream in February hopefully!!!! Still love your Videos!!!!😍😍

Hey Y'all! Just stumbled on your channel & wanted to say hey. We live in Nola & are cruise addicts!. Going on the Dream again In Sept. Went on her last Sept (it's our annual anniversary cruise) but can't wait to try all the new additions after dry dock. Great channel & content guys - can't wait to see the rest of your Dream videos. Happy travels!

Hey! So glad you found our channel!!! We love NOLA and try to make it down a couple times a year just to eat! It's amazing that we only live 3 1/2 hours north and the food is so vastly different... We loved the Dream! When we booked the cruise we had no idea there would be upgrades and were actually upset there would be no Guy's so we were so happy to find out about the drydock, the upgrades are great! And you will love the new cruise director Chris, his is awesome! Home you enjoy our other videos :)

I absolutely love watching you guys! My daughter and I have travelled with Carnival twice from Galveston. Thanks to you guys for alleviating the "fear of the unknown!" We have never sailed from New Orleans even though we are from Shreveport, but after watching you guys in New Orleans, we are definitely going to sail from there. Thank you so much for your videos. Your family's chemistry is so wonderful and your videos always put a big smile on my face! God Bless y'all. P.S. I hope Carnival is reading this because you guys are the reason why we travel with them.

+Sharon Adger this is so sweet 😊. We were a bit nervous too to try a new port but we were pleasantly surprised by NOLA! It actually runs way smoother than Galveston! We were in the port, through security and checked in in no time, the line never slowed down. We are so glad to hear you're enjoying the videos and that we are actually helping in making your vacations easier! It really means a lot to us!!!

Y'all are a beautiful family, hope you enjoyed your cruise

Have April cruise booked next. From New Orleans to Belize and Honduras. Did this one 2 years ago. Absolutely loved it. That’s why we going back. Actually discussed doing the Panama Canal but I said I wanted to do the cave float in Belize again. I absolutely loved the Dream. The dive in movie is the best! Leaving in 38 days for costa maya and Cozumel. First time to costa maya. Excited! Any tips for costa maya? I am gold and my partner platinum. We travel quite a bit.

It was very interesting sailing down the river. We had previously only cruised out of Galveston and when you leave port you are immediately in the gulf.

Thank you so much, we have learned quite a bit from your blogs. Could you tell me where you parked to then get to the ship? We are cruising on the Dream in August and were wondering about the parking. Thanks again!

So glad our videos are helping! We used the Fulton parking garage, it is block away from the port and they have a free shuttle that will drop you off right at the Carnival entrance. If you pre-book online you can save on the fees too.

Truth be told, if you're coming into NOLA from the west definitely hit up Morning Call on the East Bank. They are much better and much easier to get lol

We are going in October! Thank you so much for the home port video! I almost forgot about cafe du mont. (sorry if i misspelled it).

the table service is seat yourself as well you will never see a local in that line they trick you to get the waiters/tresses but you can walk in and sit and you will be served
