4.2/5

Take in the sights of the crescent city as you cruise on the last authentic steamboat on the Mississippi River. On this tour, you’ll enjoy a 2-hour cruise featuring live jazz music by the Steamboat Stompers and countless photo opportunities as you stroll all three decks.

Stop by the steam engine room on the bottom deck for a self-guided tour, or grab a speciality cocktail from one of the three bars onboard. You’ll also hear stories of the Big Easy's history, from a captain, as he provides live narration. Sit back, relax, and enjoy a cruise down the mighty Mississippi.
