A very efficient way to get to the city without the parking hassle. You can just park your vehicle somewhere and catch the ferry and enjoy your trip in the quarters or wherever. It's a pretty fun adventure in itself!
Since they've gone to strictly foot traffic, the terminal building has been closed. I can only hope that the building will reopen providing bathroom access. If you have to use the bathroom, you're screwed until you get to where you're going.
Just your typical ferry ride, felt safe during the trip but will say one of the workers was extremely rude to one of the people that was with us for no reason. We kinda just blew it off because we wanted to go check out the other side and regardless the ferry was the only way. Had some nice views though and got to watch the sun start to set.
As tourists staying in Belle Chase, we decided to see NOLA through public transportation (ferry, streetcar, bus) and private transportation (our feet.) The high speed ferry boats from Algiers to Canal street are clean and efficient and there is ample street parking close to the terminal. The RTA go mobile app is an awful navigation tool, but buying and using the $6 one day regional ride ticket is a breeze. Great outdoor rooftop views from the water and on-time departures on our two round trips. Bicycles allowed, no cars. Highly recommend.
There's no valid excuse/explanation/fabrication that determines/justifies/supports the decision to assess a fee/duty/levy to our own tax paying RESIDENTS.
If governments are going to steal from us, they should expect to be gratuitous NOT greedy with services for the victim.
It's a ferry terminal... It does what it needs to do. Boats dock to the terminal, people get off, people get on, and the boat depart for the other side of the Mississippi. For $2 per person per ride, I don't see what the big deal is (well, you must have exact change). You can now officially claim that you've been on a boat! If parking is too expensive, there are plenty of street parking available all throughout Algiers Point. There is a big statue of Louis Armstrong just to the south of the ferry terminal and a couple of watering holes on Bouny St. To the north of the ferry terminal is the beautiful scenic spot labelled "New Orleans Downtown View".
Only $2 to ride unless you have the jazzy pass.
Great views of the city especially at sunset and then come back after dark to see the city lights.
Best alternative to avoid parking in French Quarter. And nice to pass the Mississippi nu boat. Cheap tickets, cash only.
