About this Experience

The Steamboat NATCHEZ is taking some time off, but her sister vessel will be taking her place. You'll get the same authentic experience of a grand paddle wheeler on a leisurely, two-hour cruise on the mighty Mississippi. Enjoy traditional live jazz, craft cocktails and all the beautiful New Orleans sites, while exploring this newly renovated Riverboat addition to our family. Make sure you check out all four decks. The top deck is a sight to see! Welcome aboard the "Riverboat CITY of NEW ORLEANS".

A Creole lunch buffet is available if that option is purchased.

All tours and cruises depart from our Lighthouse Ticket Office (400 Toulouse Street) where Toulouse Street meets Mississippi River. We are located directly behind the JAX Brewery (600 Decatur Street) at the Riverboat Docks. We do not offer hotel pick ups; but, we are within walking distance of downtown and French Quarter Hotels. Parking is available at public parking lots on Decatur Street for a fee. CRUISES BEGIN BOARDING @ 11am, 2pm and 6pm
