New Orleans → Garden District: key facts

Garden District from New Orleans Airport (MSY) by private transfer: $110 per car (1–3 people) or $150 per van (4–8), fixed per vehicle and identical to the checkout price. On the road it is 26 km via I 10, roughly 25 min when traffic is light and 25–35 min when it is not.

Meeting point: The driver waits for you on Level 1 in the baggage claim hall of the terminal, holding a sign with your name, and walks with you to the vehicle at the Ground Transportation Center outside the baggage claim doors. Flight tracking is included, the first hour after landing is free waiting time, and the driver carries your bags to the car.

The Garden District lies upriver from downtown, about 26 km from the airport. The drive follows Interstate 10 east through Metairie and then either continues on the Pontchartrain Expressway towards the Crescent City Connection approach, leaving it for St. Charles Avenue, or turns off earlier onto Claiborne Avenue and heads towards the river. The last part runs on tree-lined avenues where the St. Charles streetcar shares the road with traffic, so the pace there is slower than on the interstate.

The Garden District is a residential neighbourhood of large nineteenth-century houses and gardens between St. Charles Avenue and Magazine Street, roughly from Jackson Avenue to Louisiana Avenue. Lafayette Cemetery No. 1 sits at its centre on Washington Avenue, opposite well-known restaurants, while Magazine Street on its southern edge is lined with shops and cafes. The Lower Garden District and the Irish Channel border it, and Uptown with Audubon Park and the Tulane and Loyola universities continues further along St. Charles Avenue. Most lodging here is in guest houses and small hotels on or near St. Charles Avenue.

Public transport instead: RTA (New Orleans Regional Transit Authority) bus 202 Airport Express, then St. Charles streetcar from Level 1 Baggage Claim, outside Door 2 (bus zones B4 and B5) to St. Charles Avenue stops in the Garden District (via downtown New Orleans), 1 change.
