Another way to see New Orleans is by streetcar!  They’re fun to ride and great for sightseeing.  There are several stops along Canal Street, St. Charles Avenue and along the Riverwalk.  The average fare is $1.25.  There are visitor passes available at discounted rates.  Visit www.norta.com for additional information.

Taxis are readily available on New Orleans streets and at the Sheraton New Orleans.
