With some great day trip options in the surrounding area, having your own car makes sense. Without one, it’d be much harder to experience everything that Arts/Warehouse District, 55 miles away, has to offer. Explore the area beginning with National World War II Museum, Lafayette Square and Contemporary Arts Center. Don’t miss Garden District either! Just 55 miles away, New Orleans Fire Department Museum and Educational Center, George Washington Cable House and Rink Shopping Center are essential stops here.
