Using Public Transportation

Walking and using public transportation has an incredible impact on the environment. Simple changes to our daily routines can change the future of the planet. Consider public transportation for your next trip to the Zoo.

Streetcar

Audubon Zoo can be accessed by the St. Charles Avenue Streetcar line, which stops in front of Audubon Park. Read more about Streetcar pricing, schedules and stops.

Once you exit the Streetcar, you can take a leisurely stroll through Audubon Park walking toward the Mississippi River, where you'll cross Magazine Street and find Audubon Zoo. No time to walk, or it's too hot? Wait and take a ride on the Audubon Shuttle from St. Charles Avenue to Audubon Zoo. The Audubon Shuttle runs every 15 minutes during busy seasons.

RTA Bus

The Zoo can be accessed by the 11:Magazine and 32:Leonidas lines. The 10:Tchoupitoulas line ends near the Zoo, which provide riders with access within walking distance to the Zoo's entrance. Read more about RTA bus routes, pricing and schedules.

From the Airport

The Airport-Downtown Express (E-2) provides service from the Louis Armstrong New Orleans International Airport in Kenner to Carrollton and Tulane Avenues where it connects with the RTA's 32:Leonidas bus to the front of the Zoo. Read more about RTA bus routes, pricing and schedules.
