Nonesuch Posted April 12, 2005 #1 Share Posted April 12, 2005 What's the best way to get to the Port of New Orleans from the French Quarter? I know I can catch a shuttle from the airport to the hotel, is there any shuttle to the pier? Should I just expect to hail a cab on Sunday morning? Any estimate on the fare? Thanks in Advance.

kujobie Posted April 12, 2005 #2 Share Posted April 12, 2005 If your hotel is near the river, you could take the riverfront streetcar. Otherwise, you'll probably need a cab. It's just a little too far to walk. About 10 blocks or so. The chain hotels might have airport shuttles but I doubt if they will take you to the seaport for free.

BrendaB1 Posted April 12, 2005 #3 Share Posted April 12, 2005 Recent stay at Hilton-Riverside, cab fare was $7pp to the pier. Not bad considering they drop you off right in front of terminal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cotton Posted April 14, 2005 #5 Share Posted April 14, 2005 Your best bet would be a cab. Standard rate from anywhere in the Quarter or Garden District to the pier is $7pp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phinfan63 Posted April 14, 2005 #6 Share Posted April 14, 2005 We stayed at the Hilton Riverside last year and took the streetcar/trolley. It was great - cost $1.50 and stopped right at the pier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
