New Orleans Steamboat Natchez Harbor Cruise

Overview
Board your riverboat to the delightful tunes of the Steam Calliope. Experience the sights and sounds of river life that enchanted characters of history and literature - like Mark Twain's Huck Finn and Tom Sawyer - and see the bustling activity of America's second-largest port!

Please note, the boat boards at 11:00am and departs promptly at 11:30am. We offer two seating times for lunch - 11:00 and 12:15pm. If you select the first lunch seating, please arrive around 10:45am and go straight to the dining room when you board the vessel.

This was a great activity that I did with my family. We did the lunch cruise. Lunch was good and the music and commentary was very good as well. Would Highly recommend this activity if you are visiting New Orleans.

Nice steamboat ride and history storytelling. Donā€™t think the food is worth it as you can get food on board and be able to get seats otherwise if your the first seating for food there are no seats left when you go up. Wind up standing the whole time!

Although everyone can have a seat, we cannot always accommodate everyone outdoors on the decks at one time. Thank you for coming aboard.
