How far is the Degas House from the French Quarter?
It is approximately 11 blocks away.
Can I walk to the French Quarter? And if not ... What mode of transport do I use to get to the neighborhood?
The walk to the French Quarter is very pleasant because Esplanade Avenue is a beautiful boulevard. There is a bus stop in front of the house that goes to the French Quarter. The bus runs approximately every 20 minutes. Axles are available through United Cabs, our preferred taxi company.
Do I need a rental car?
If your stay in New Orleans is in the city center, taxis, the bus system, and streetcar lines can easily and inexpensively meet your needs. However, when your night activities are in the city center, we suggest you park your car here at Degas House and take a taxi.
