We had a wonderful time on the Steamboat Natchez. Very glad we chose the non-dining option - thought he food looked great, we got to sit outside the dining area and spent the entire two hours seeing the sights from the Mississippi, all the while getting information along the way about those sights from a very entertaining commentary. Having had the commentary on the journey away from the dock, we then enjoyed the entertainment of a dixieland trio back to the dock.

This was a good trip for my kids and I. Wish it was longer and more to do on the boat.

We booked the lunch option for this tour. This was a nice relaxing afternoon. We loved the food! We had grilled catfish, chicken breast, salad, beans and rice, and bread pudding. We were very full! You could listen to the narration about the Mississippi river which was interesting. After we got lunch at 12:15 we had a hard time finding a seat back in the shade because we wanted to sit outside. Overall it was an enjoyable tour!

We loved our ride on the Natchez Steamboat. Even though the line was extremely long, the boarding process was quick and smooth. There was plenty of room for everyone on the decks with alot of seating along the railings. WE did not choose the meal option but were still able to go into the dining room and purchase snacks and listen to the Jazz band. I'd definitely recommend this tour.

The only real steamboat on the Mississipi, we enjoyed the tour, it gives you a nice view of New Orleans, food was decent, weather was a little chilly.

Very boring.

Very relaxing tour and just gives another perspective of the city. We did the tour without the food portion better to eat on any of the restaurants in the area.

Had the lunch included. I suggest you bypass the luncheon. I was hoping for more variety and better quality. The boat cruise was okay. We did tour the engine room and found that interesting.

The food served on the lunch buffet cruise was good. The P.A. system needs to be updated. The pipe organ music that was played on the top of the steamboat at the dock was VERY loud actually PAINFULLY loud and lasted too long. There was plenty of seating and you got a good view from almost anywhere on the boat. However, there was not much to see except industrial buildings, freight boats and the muddy Mississippi. It was a nice diversion overall and we appreciated the novelty of the experience.
