IMPORTANT: THE JULIA STREET STATION AND POYDRAS STREET STATION ARE CURRENTLY NOT PART OF THE RIVERFRONT STREETCAR! New Orleans is a cruise port city that has a ton to offer! But, if you only have a limited amount of time to visit, you can still easily get a small taste of the French Quarter -- and the yummy Original CafΓ© du Monde Coffee Stand -- if your cruise begins, ends, or visits the Port of New Orleans, which is located behind -- or east of -- the New Orleans Convention Center.
