Transportation from Port in New Orleans

[adstz]

For our September cruise I need to find transportation from the port to a hotel. Currently looking at a Holiday Inn a block or 2 from Bourbon Street.

Where does the ship dock? And what kind of transportation is readily available at the dock? Do I need to book it in advance?

There will be four of us traveling together.

Thanks for any info.

the boat docks near  the Hilton  on Poydras St   so  a short taxi ride  to Bourbon St  is probably the best

It's a distance to get from the dock to someplace for an Uber or a taxi.  Probably 5 to 15 minutes depending on how fast you are.  There are porters though and they will haul your luggage for you.  Most of the walk to the pickup area is through the mall that's next to the Hilton.  That's actually the location where the ship docks.
