View the ever-changing skyline of 'The Crescent City' from the sunny decks or climate-controlled comfort of the majestic Steamer Natchez. Your two hour cruise from the heart of the French Quarter takes you back to a time when cotton was king and life was as slow and graceful as the current of the Mississippi. Cruise past the Chalmette Battlefield, where the legendary Jean Lafitte and his buccaneers joined forces with Andrew Jackson to defend the city against the British in the Battle of New Orleans.

A Creole lunch buffet is available should you wish to enjoy traditional New Orleans cuisine on this historic cruise.
