For Journeys that Matter
LUXY Ride connects Port of New Orleans travelers with a professional chauffeur through its partner network, arranged in advance rather than hailed at the curb. The fare is set before the trip begins and includes gratuity and tolls.
Many cruisers pair a Port NOLA departure with a day or two in the French Quarter, while business travelers extend a New Orleans trip into a cruise just as easily. The same LUXY Ride process serves both with the same confirmed pricing.
