Great way to combine many experiences in one outing! I had 4 guest visiting New Orleans and all had different request and were here only for a short visit. The Natchez Steamboat cruise offered a great meal, excellent jazz music, informative history of New Orleans, lovely sunsets and wonderful photo opportunities. It was a 60th birthday for one of my guest and the band wished her and 4 other guest on the cruise a Happy Birthday which made the evening totally special!!

If in New Orleans this is a must , from the service , food , history , couldn't ask for a better cruise along the Mississippi, the jazz band were great . Loved the buffet and trying the local cuisine, this cruise was also well priced and good value for money

Everything about the cruise was great. Headout tickets made it simple and enjoyable. The food was great, the cruise was great, the staff was great!!!

Cruise down the Mississippi on a 2-hour boat ride while soaking in that classic New Orleans swing performed by the Grammy-nominated Dukes of Dixieland.

The hearty buffet dinner served on board includes servings of Tossed Salad Du Jour, Creole Creamed Spinach, Chicken and Sausage Gumbo, and more.

Take in skyline views from the indoor and outdoor decks, swing by the vintage engine room, and hear fascinating stories from the onboard guide.

With 6pm and 7:45pm seatings, you get the flexibility to cruise and dine on your own schedule.

What to Bring

Shirts and shoes are a must for all cruises. If you're joining the Dinner Jazz Cruise, opt for “dressy casual.” Skip the jeans and go for dress pants, a skirt, or a nice blouse. Guys, a collared shirt—button-down or polo—adds a polished touch.

What’s Not Allowed

This is a smoke-free cruise. Smoking is not allowed anywhere on the boat, inside or out.

Accessibility

The cruise is fully wheelchair and stroller accessible.

Guide dogs are more than welcome aboard.

Additional Information

Both the Steamboat NATCHEZ and Riverboat CITY of NEW ORLEANS will alternate departures depending on scheduling needs and private events until March 2026, when they’ll adopt individual timetables. Either way, you'll still enjoy two hours of live jazz, cocktails, and Crescent City charm—best experienced from the top deck of your steamboat.

Boarding starts 1 hour before departure, so get there on time for a relaxed check-in.

If you're 21 or older, you can grab your beverages at the counter. Bring along your photo ID with birthdate, as required by Louisiana law.

Your voucher will be emailed to you instantly.

Display the voucher on your mobile phone with a valid photo ID at the redemption point.

Please arrive at the redemption point 15 mins before the scheduled time of your visit to avoid any delays.
