If you are cruising, be prepared for a disorganized circus at both embarkation and disembarkation.

2/5 - Disappointing

Verified traveler

OMG. a oneway two lane extremely long road to get to the terminal. Yikes. Our driver was trying to explain why it was taking so long to drop us off.

5/5 - Excellent

Verified traveler

Very easy to get in and out for our cruise!!!

1/5 - Terrible

Verified traveler

DO NOT use the taxi service from the Julia Street Cruise Terminal/Port of New Orleans, and if you do be sure to get the price stipulated up front. We were refused the option to use Uber or Lyft by a uniformed officer, who said we had to walk to the Convention Center to use one of those services. Since we had luggage and a person who was having difficulty walking that wasn't an option. The taxi that carried us charged me $40 to go to the French Quarter - less than 10 minutes away. The Uber fare would have been $8. I'll NEVER, EVER use a New Orleans taxi again.
