The person that was giving the fact about what we were seeing. Some of the history I didn't know. I am a teacher and I found interesting.

Wonderful. Thank you. The gentleman narrating has been working riverboats on the Mississippi for over 45 years.

Great river boat cruise! I really enjoyed the music food and tour of the ship. The gift shop was even fun to peruse and had lots of cool stuff. Highly recommend.

We took the daytime cruise and added the lunch. We thought the food was very good! I know many people want to compare what you have on the cruise to one of the finer restaurants in NOLA, and if that's the case, there is no comparison. However, if you go in thinking you're going to have a hot, tasty meal, it's great. The cruise itself was lovely. The only downfall was there was a field of of a large group of what looked like 4 years old. They screamed the entire trip and were mostly unsupervised. I literally thought one of them was going overboard, as they kept climbing on the rails. We couldn't hear any of the narration during the trip. I am from here, so at least I was able to explain to my out of town guests what areas we were cruising though. Overall, it was lovely and I would recommend taking the cruise and don't be afraid of the food.
