New Orleans 2-Hour Steamboat Natchez Jazz Dinner Cruise
In the evening, head to the French Quarter and board your beautiful boat: either the Steamboat Natchez, a traditional paddlewheel ship that's one of the last of its kind in New Orleans, or the Riverboat City of New Orleans, her sister vessel. Begin the journey along the Mississippi River. Take a seat in the cabin or on the outside deck, where you can admire unobstructed views of the shoreline at dusk. Soak up live jazz tunes courtesy of the Grammy-nominated Dukes of Dixieland, a true New Orleans-style band. As for dinner, your Creole-inspired meal could include favorites from chicken and sausage gumbo to cheesy penne pasta. Top it off with signature bread pudding accompanied by coffee and tea (dinner is available as an upgrade option). After several hours on the water, your evening cruise ends back at the departure point in the French Quarter.
