“We waited an over an hour to move. Tour lasted like a half hour. It was dark so you could not see much.”
Sail 2 hours on the Mississippi aboard the Natchez, with live jazz and history commentary. Optional Southern buffet lunch available.
“It was really fun! Maybe not the most scenic river tour, but the history and getting to see one of the busiest ports in the country was a unique experience. They had what looked like pretty good food on board, and the band that played a set of two was a classic New Orleans jazz band, and they were excellent. If I were a seven year old boy again I would have gone wild looking at all the ships and machinery”

“We had a good time. However the bartender wasn’t funny ! Wish they at least had water for us seeing the temperatures were so high. They also need to do some house keeping like don’t block doors with chairs and garbage barrels. The door are stuck to get back into the third floor and I heard a security person say that like that all the time it will eventually open if you keep pulling. Are you kidding me! In case of an emergency the people on floor three are dead meat. The coast guard would love to know about this !! Other than that there was a good history listen.…”
