Great experience for the price.... The LIVE BAND on the paddle boat was AMAZING... The 4 gentlemen in the group were very experienced in every aspect of jazz. We were informed of things about the 3rd largest river in the world (Mississippi River) and several other vessels parked alongside the river as we cruised down the river around 6 miles then back to port. We REALLY ENJOYED our little mini cruise on the Paddle boat!

If you would like an experience on a paddle steam boat with live jazz then this ticks the box. I had thoughts of a lovely scenic Mississippi river cruise but it was an industrialized port where we went down the river for half an hour then back to the starting point and then up the river for half an hour and back. The guide tried to make it interesting with some history but when he had to mention that there is a boat with gravel in it, it does show there wasn't a great deal to describe around us. I was a bit disappointed.

We regret that the Narration was not interesting to you. It is focused on the port and those places along the banks of the port. We hope you enjoyed the band during the cruise as well.
