The steamboad Natchez Evening cruise was excellent with the sounds of the Jzz musice coming from the upper deck and the steam organ on the the upper deck was playing just before we got aboard was unique. The food was lovely. The staff could do enough for you. My husband went to look at the engine room and had a chat with the engineer who had worked on the boat from day 1. Recommend to everyone very New Orleans thing to do.

A very nice relaxing way to end our trip to NOLA. The food is good and the cruise down the river is very relaxing

We took this cruise on the last night of our week long vacation in New Orleans, and on the evening of our wedding anniversary. It didn't disappoint. You board one hour before they set sail. During this time, a Dixieland jazz band is playing, there is a gift shop to peruse and an open bar which sells mixed and virgin drinks. Sitting out on deck and watching the mighty Mississippi River, while enjoying music and a drink is a wonderful, relaxing experience. There were plenty of deck chairs for everyone. Later on in the cruise, a wonderful dinner buffet is served of local foods, in a lovely dining room, with pretty table linens. Many people dressed up for this occasion! The food was fabulous and the waiters were gracious and extremely friendly. As the sun sets and the world grows dark, the lights of the Mississippi River bridge are so beautiful. It is all very romantic. The experience was soooo worth the price and then some! You even get a photo of yourself and loved one (purchase price around $22) to remember the trip. I cannot recommend this cruise enough. It was a wonderful end to a fantastic trip to New Orleans!

My friend and I went on the evening jazz cruise in mid March. The jazz band was very good as was the buffet. It was a fun time. I recommend this highly.

Would not do again. We were herded around like cattle and the food was only fair.
