New Orleans Cruise Terminal

The New Orleans cruise terminal is located within walking distance of the Arts District and the French Quarter. It is in the same building as the RiverWalk Shopping Mall, so you can shop until it's time to board the ship. The New Orleans cruise terminal complex is also on the RiverFront streetcar line.

The New Orleans cruise terminals at the Julia Street Wharf have been upgraded and a new and larger cruise terminal is open at the adjacent Erato Street wharf. The terminal is designed to accommodate the largest cruise ships and includes a four-story parking garage to handle over a 1,000 vehicles.

The Port of New Orleans has a fine set of driving directions, which we won't reproduce here. They also provide a simple map of the area.
