New Orleans has streetcar lines and bus lines to help you get around the city. Both streetcar and the NORTA bus cost $1.25 for a one-way trip. You can pay with cash when boarding and will be given credit on a pass if you don’t have exact change.
Note: you should account for delays and slow service when taking public transportation. Buses and streetcars are by no means the fastest way to get around New Orleans—but if you’re looking for ease in the Big Easy, they are a fine choice!
Uber and Lyft are widely available throughout the city and are often more affordable and convenient than renting a car. United Cabs is one of the best New Orleans taxi services and even has its own app!
With rideshare options widely available across the city, you should not need to rent a car. However, if you plan to leave the city for a day trip, or want to explore outside the main downtown area, renting a car is an option as well. Brands like Enterprise, Hertz, and Avis have outposts at the Louis Armstrong International airport, on Canal Street, and in other areas near the Central Business District (CBD).
