streetcar and cemetery question

We are staying at the Iberville Suites and plan on walking to St Louis Cathedral, Cafe Du Monde and then heading over to the Canal Street Ferry to Mardi Gras World before returning to the hotel. My question is, we want to ride a streetcar for the kids sake at least once on the trek but wonder if we should take the Riverfront car to the ferry after seeing the cathedral, or walk it and take the Canal Street car back to the hotel after Mardi Gras World? Are both cars running now?

My second question is.. St Louis Cemetery looks like an easy walk to our hotel, but I%26#39;ve read that safety is an issue? We will have our young daughters in tow, so should I just scrap that idea or is the issue exaggerated?

I believe most folks will echo my suggestion that you not tour St. Louis Cemetary on your own. Join up with an organized tour.

From St. Louis Cathedral to Canal St. is only 5 or 6 blodks. If you want your kids to have the streetcar experience, I recommend the Canal St. line. Those streetcars go all the way to Carrollton and beyond. When you%26#39;ve gone far enough to suit yourself, just get off, cross the tracks, and catch the next streetcar going towards downtown. You%26#39;ll need to pay again, of course, but it%26#39;s still one of the lower-priced activities in New Orleans.
