We originally only planned local travel after a conference but booked airport transportation with Joyce. It was fairly easy. The one thing I would say is payment with a coupon is a little tricky so make sure you plan a little extra time with your travels in case phone connections cause a delay. It was a lot less expensive than booking an Uber or Lyft! Joyce is so much fun and very professional! The vehicle was clean and spacious. She knows the city well and provided insight to a number of New Orleans facts and tidbits. I would love to book travel through her again when I'm back in NOLA - she's great! read more

Joyce was amazing! She was so helpful and quick with responding and scheduling. As for Joyce and the ride herself, she was funny, entertaining and so knowledgable about NOLA, Louisiana and Mardi Gras specifically. I highly recommend her for any transportation needs, especially around the festival. read more

What a great company-amazing staff. They've welcomed us for years. This company not only goes above and beyond for my husband and I- they took care of my mom on her trip there and made sure she was taken care of. I highly recommend them- quality, punctual & incredibly knowledgeable. read more

Let's Just Ride - Gator tour 3 oh, heyyyy.. BIG AL (14ft.) - Airport Shuttles Near Me - New Orleans, Louisiana

Booked transportation for a group of 9 for an airboat tour. Mike arrived at our pick up spot early and was a delight. All communications with both Mike and Joyce were responsive and helpful. I would absolutely book Let's Just Ride again. read more

I forgot to leave Joyce and her family a five star review when I left New Orleans year ago, but I just looked them up now because I'm going back. I can think of no better way to get off the plane at New Orleans airport and get a lift to town with Miss Joyce. Last year, I went on her tour down the river to the Whitney Museum, and she worked in time to have lunch at the Cajun restaurant pictured here -- and a wonderful tasty and satisfying meal was enjoyed by all. read more

Let's Just Ride - Airport Shuttles Near Me - New Orleans, Louisiana

I have used 3 different services to get to and from the French Quarter over the past 4 years and this was the best service I have received. I would highly recommend you give them a try, I do not think you will be disappointed. Our driver was Joyce and she was very entertaining and informative. The round trip price from the airport to our hotel was very reasonable. Our first flight was canceled so the airline booked us on another flight which completely changed our schedule for arrival, then we ended up sitting waiting for a gate to open for another 45 minutes, it was stressing me out but Joyce was there with a smile on her face. If you need a ride to your hotel from the airport, I would definitely recommend Let's Just Ride. I will be giving them a call my next trip to New Orleans! read more

Ms Joyce Was one of the highlights of our weekend. She took a group of us to the Whitney plantation and provided so much information and history that it was like getting two tours in one. On top of that she is the salt of the earth and extremely funny. You would really be missing out if you didn't get this experience in Nola. read more

I highly recommend this service. My group did not have the worry of how we were going to get to our hotel when we arrived and when departing. They communicated well and on time. read more

Okay, so I want to take a second to to tell you all that this incredible woman made my trip go from fun to the best time I've had in a while. Ms. Joyce is prompt, organized, and and all around joy to be with. I found her through the Joseph plantation site and let me tell you, when I go back to New Orleans I'll be using her service. She had water on hand, chargers, basically anything you might need she's got you covered. On top of it, Ms. Joyce knew beforehand that it was my friend's birthday, she bought a little cake for us to celebrate with. She blew us away. Use her service, you won't regret it and you'll be supporting a small business in New Orleans. read more

Just tried LJR for the first time, and it won't be our last! I booked a ride for my daughter from MSY to her college campus, and they made that part of her trip easy and pleasant. Communication with me was fast, clear, and personable, and the rate was very fair. Thank you, Joyce and Thersa! read more

This was our first time going to New Orleans and thanks to Ms. Joyce we had a good foundation as to what to do and see in her city. When she picked us up from the airport she gave us a mini tour of the city before dropping us off at our hotel. She and big Mike were timely in picking us up and dropping us off and shared amazing historical information and insight into their city. We highly recommend them! Mike and Donna Snell read more

The entire process from booking to pick ups and drop offs was so smooth and easy. Communication was prompt & friendly. The rides were comfortable and came with great conversation (thank you, Mr. Cooper!) Let's Just Ride will be the only company I use anytime I travel to NOLA! read more

I had posted about my original experience prior to being picked up. Just wanted to add how spotless the rest of the trip was. Joyce met me at the baggage claim with my name on a sign as promised. (Keep in mind, my flight was an hour early -- How often does that happen?) She carried my luggage to the car, and offered me delicious ice chilled beverage. Her driving was on point as her attention to the road avoided an accident following a nut ball cutting her off. The highlight came when instead of dropping me straight off at the hotel, she gave me an abbreviated highlight tour of the city, pointing out the hot spots and extending a little history lesson. Joyce is perfect at what she does, and it's so rare to find excellence in customer service when it comes to transportation. Definitely my go to spot moving forward for transportation and tours. read more

Really enjoyed my experience with Ms. Joyce and her team. She was informative and personable and kind. She got us to where we needed to go and kept us on schedule. A friend and mine used her services for the Whitney Plantation tour, which I highly recommend. I was also able to arrange shuttle service to and from the airport with Ms. Joyce for a few of my friends and everything went very smoothly. I would definitely recommend Let's Just Ride in the future! read more

Lovely service with very friendly folks who go above and beyond. Highly recommended. If you're visiting NOLA it's always good to patronize local businesses instead of corporate chains. Punctual, kind, fairly priced. read more

Joyce drove our family to and from an alligator swamp tour and she was fantastic. She took us for an impromptu stop at a plantation on the way for some photos, took great care of our safety while driving and provided us with endless insights on the area and culture. Would use and highly recommend her services again. read more

Great experience. Booked a ride to Whitney Plantation museum on slavery and Joyce was great to work with on phone. I received text confirmation the day before and a call from driver when close. Ray drove us there and back and was a pleasure to chat and be with. We hired them again for airport ride. Same thing. One complaint is that they take cash instead of credit. It would be great if they had a Square account or something that would allow drivers to take cards. read more

Contacted Ms. Joyce last minute and she set us up no problem! Had an AMAZING time visiting the Whitney Plantation and then doing a swamp airboat tour. Highlight of my first time in NOLA! Ms. Joyce connected us with a wonderful local driver and we had nothing to worry about all day. She and her connections/coworkers were generous and charming - happy to give tips on what to do, what to see, what to avoid. I would absolutely contact her again for additional tours! read more

Joyce was extremely professional with an amazing personality. My husband found her private car service through craigslist. At first we had booked her service for the airport to our hotel. We were very happy with her service and patience as our airline had lost our luggage. We ended up booking her for a car service from the hotel to our port as we were going on a cruise. After the additional service of her pickup from the port to the airport, also booked the tour of New Orleans. Price is very fair. Service is A+ Cleanliness of vehicle A+ Highly recommend!!! read more

Joyce and her staff were absolutely wonderful! She checked in with me to confirm our tour and ride, and when weather interfered with the swamp tour, she contacted the guides on our behalf and rescheduled. She is more than a ride- she is a skilled tour guide! Joyce was flexible, knowledgable, and so much fun. She even gave our friend a free ride to the airport because she was heading back that direction. Highly recommend for all your NOLA transportation needs. read more

We can't say enough good things about Joyce and our amazing experience visiting the Whitney Plantation because we were driven from NOLA and back by Joyce. We called her at 8 in the morning and explained that we needed to get to the plantation by 11 that day and she jumped through hoops to get us there. She was so much more than a driver! She is full of useful information and presents it in a humorous and entertaining way. She goes above and beyond to make your experience educational, and truly memorable. We will definitely go back to New Orleans and call Joyce again, if just to hear her great stories and learn more about the history of Louisiana from an authentic, amazing woman. read more

If I could give Joyce 10 stars I absolutely would! She was professional, communicative & extremely knowledgeable about New Orleans. If you ever need transportation in NOLA, use Joyce!!! You'll not only get to where you need to safely, you will have fun doing so! read more

Joyce, the owner, is an outstanding hostess! Not only did she get us to out hotel in a timely manner, she was available when the wait for Uber was over 30 minutes. She gave us great tips and suggestions for where to go in the French quarter and other parts of town. I highly recommend and saved her number in my phone for when I return! read more

The top of my list for a short visit to New Orleans, my first, was to visit the Whitney Plantation. From its website, I called one of the recommended tour companies, Let's Just Ride. Joyce told me she couldn't accommodate my wife and me at either 10:30am Thursday or Friday. I checked with my wife, who was here for an academic conference, and she said I should go alone, since couldn't get away long enough on either day we had left in town. Not long thereafter, Joyce called me back and said she'd called a tour taxi friend who could take me at 10:30 Thursday for the same price. I'm pretty sure I told her that my wife wasn't able to go, but she didn't say anything about that making any difference. I went to the concierge at my hotel, the Hilton/St. Charles, to get her advice, and when I mentioned Let's Just Ride and the arrangements offered me, she suggested that I rent a car and drive myself, which would be cheaper than the $65 I was being quoted. But I decided to stick with what Joyce offered so I could relax and not have to drive in unfamiliar territory. Thursday, the driver arrived on time, and we had a pleasant drive to Whitney, where I was emotionally overwhelmed by the exhibit--especially the children statues in the church and the angel taking up the baby. I will certainly tell anyone I know who travels to NOLA not to miss the Whitney. After we arrived, Joyce called me and asked me to pay the driver cash or to pay on line to Let's Just Ride. She said his credit card access wasn't working. So I agreed to pay him cash when we returned to the hotel. We had a very quiet ride back to the City, as I was still trying to absorb all I had seen, heard, and felt. When we arrived back at the hotel, I gave the driver $65, as I believed I owed him, and he asked me to wait while he called Joyce, because she'd told him to collect $130. He put her on speakerphone, and I could hear her screaming. I asked him to hand me the phone, and I said hello. Then she started screaming at me that she never would have agreed to a 4-hour trip for $65. When I tried to respond, she ordered, "Please let me finish," and continued to go on and on defending herself and saying that I was trying to cheat her. She said she'd email me a receipt, but I still haven't received one. I gave up trying to have a civilized discussion with her and just handed the phone back to the driver, who looked at me helplessly. I said I had to go into the hotel to get more cash from the ATM. When I came out, I gave him $130 in cash and asked him for a written receipt, which he gave me, because I didn't trust Joyce any more. I'm not sorry I visited the Whitney, because it is something I will never forget, but I hope I can soon forget Joyce and Let's Just Ride, because that was the only unpleasant experience I had in New Orleans. I'm not looking for a refund. I wouldn't waste my time, but I made sure that someone at the Whitney knew of my terrible experience with that person, who represents one of the listed transportation options.For my part, I'll certainly make sure to tell this story to anyone traveling to New Orleans. read more

I requested a plantation tour online 6 days before the tour date. I received a confirmation number on an email that same night. I had no other communication with this company so I assumed everything was in order for our tour. Luckily I emailed them two days before the tour to ask about our pick up time and I was informed that the they would not be able to take us on the tour (no other explantation). I can certainly understand if they were unable to accommodate us on the tour, but it is extremely poor customer service not to inform us immediately so that we could make other arrangements. They don't appear to be very reliable and I would not recommend this company. read more

Joyce is a gem. Plain and simple. A gem. How could a ride from an airport, or back to the airport, be so infused with joy, humor, and sincere warmth?!? Joyce. I felt like a had a great old friend who had my back all the way. She stayed outside my apartment to make sure I got all the way inside my apartment ! And she checked in with me during my stay. Unheard of customer service!!!! I will be back, and I look forward to spending time talking with Joyce, and having her be my guide in NOLA. read more

This service was so great! Joyce picked out party of 8 at the airport, took us to our home and gave us so much helpful information. She was so funny as well. We also booked Whitney plantation tour and on our way back she recommended a great restaurant! I loved her services, she is nice and friendly. read more

Joyce was just awesome. She took us from our hotel in the Quarter to Airboat Tours By Arthur Matherne and back again. A great personality and very informative too. You're not just getting a ride with Joyce, your getting a tour of the city back and forth. I highly recommend Let's Just Ride! Great experience. read more

Was in New Orleans this past weekend for a bachelorette party and we needed to go 45 minutes outside of town for a swamp tour. At the last minute we decided that Uber wouldn't be our best option and Let's Just Ride was recommended to us. We called and they had Big Mike there with in 30 minutes to takes 10 of us to our tour. He was awesome! Very personable , funny, and even made a pit stop for us so that we can get liquor to take on our tour! Highly recommended and it was very inexpensive as well! read more

We used The company to book a tour and transportation to the Whitney plantation. Joyce was very professional and accommodating to our schedule. We were picked up in a town car and our driver Ray was very helpful and informative and giving us other venues to visit while we were in New Orleans. They also our offer pick up and drop off at the airport and we utilized them to drop us off for our early departure. I would definitely recommend them to anyone that needs inexpensive transportation to or from the airport or to a location outside of the New Orleans city limit. read more

I have to say what a great experience I had with this company!! When I called I spoke with Joyce, who was extremely helpful!! I was in town for the Essence Festival and needed a ride to the airport, Joyce worked with me to get a ride to the airport. She also arranged it so I could share a ride which helped defray some of the initial cost. I really appreciate her attention to detail and have saved this companies number in my phone for future trips to New Orleans!! read more

This is my second year using Let's just Ride. I have to say I keep coming back for the service and Joyce. I don't think a trip to New Orleans would be complete with out a pick and a hello from Joyce. Her costumer service goes above any other shuttle service. I been to New Orleans plenty of times and the other shuttles just don't compare to Joyce. Price and friendliness. She knows her city ins and outs. If you need a shuttle book Joyce. We now look forward to Joyce picking us up. on our yearly trips to the big easy!!! read more

Joyce is absolutely amazing! Having been to New Orleans at least 2x a year for the last 16, I can honestly say Let's Just Ride is the very best. Joyce was super-easy to communicate with both prior to our arrival in the city and during our stay. We went to the Whitney Plantation and Slavery Museum (which was phenomenal as well). The cost was beyond amazing considering the personalized treatment we received. Joyce is warm, interesting and super-knowledgable. By the end of our trip, she felt more like a friend. Honestly, these simple words don't do the experience justice! I plan on not only utilizing Let's Just Ride every time I'm in the city but recommending Joyce and her company to my friends and family (and anyone who will listen, lol)! read more

Both Miss Joyce and Ray were amazing! We utilized this service for an airboat tour, and we found prompt and attentive service! Ray asked about our trip back to the airport and offered to pick us up the next morning at 5am (they are closed until 7am) to take us to the airport! We will certainly call them again for our transportation needs when back in NOLA. They really treated us like friends! Highly recommend! read more

We absolutely loved Joyce! We had such a great time while in NOLA and Joyce was definitely a highlight! All we thought we signed up for was a ride and we ended up with our own personal tour of the city, we couldn't have asked for a better tour guide!! Let's Just Ride was very professional and on time, and Joyce was the best with great customer service! Next time we're in NOLA we will definitely be calling Lets Just Ride! read more

I was referred by Ms. Joyce from a friend and I'm so glad she did, Ms. Joyce was prompt with her communication and fast text responses, very Nice and polite lady. unfortunately i didn't get to meet her in person but she did a sure me that the tour guide she gave us to was a very nice guy and knowledgeable about the city. she assured me we were going to be in good hands. She sent an Awesome guy name Purnell and we hit it off immediately he was funny and kind right at the start, the tour of the city Purnell was very knowledgeable and showed us a lot of history around the city and he even introduced us to people that was effected by Hurricane Katrina and who's trying to make a difference from the aftermath. Purnell was very prompt with time and very patient with us ladies he made us feel safe during our stay and we stayed laughing. I cant say enough about the wonderful experience i had and Ms. Joyce keep in touch with me the entire time of my stay. I highly highly recommend Her company to anyone looking to visit New Orleans. Thanks again for the wonderful time Purnell and Ms. Joyce until next time. read more

This company was great. Joy was waiting at the airport for us, gave us a lot of history of the area on the ride into town. Very reasonably priced and very friendly. Would definitely recommend and will use in the future. read more

Joyce and her staff were lovely to work with. They accommodated all of our needs down to the smallest details. They were friendly and spirited. They know a lot about New Orleans and are sure to give you and your group a memorable experience. We will definitely be calling again. read more

My friends and I were planning a getaway to New Orleans and wanted to build a custom day of the Whitney Plantation & Swamp Tour, but couldn't find a travel company that offered both on the same day. I found Let's Just Ride and inquired as to whether or not this was something they could do. The communication was awesome and it required very little effort, which was awesome considering we were travelling from Canada and didn't have the luxury of planning an itinerary from within the same country. Everything was arranged for us and Joyce was a tour guide herself during the transportation, offering a wealth of knowledge and a lot of humour. I would highly recommend her services again! read more

Ms. Joyce was AMAZING the whole trip - we appreciated all the fun facts she had and the energy she radiates. :) Would recommend her to anyone! read more
