Free ferry instead of riverboat
Why locals love it
This is how many of the locals get to work downtown or the French Quarter. They live across the river and take the ferry. From there they can jump on a street car to work. There are some bars and restaurants in Algiers once you get across the river.
Why you should visit it
Don't pay for a few hours of cruising the river on the river boat Natchez. Grab a six pack of beer and ride the Canal Street - Algiers Ferry across the river for free.
