Overview

Savor the beauty and romance of the New Orleans skyline aboard the Dinner Jazz Cruise. Enjoy the Dukes of Dixieland jazz band and a narration provided by our captain while cruising the Mighty Mississippi River.

There are two seating times for dinner, so please make sure to check availability of both if one is not available. The 1st dinner seating is from 6-7:15pm and the 2nd is from 7:45-9pm. Groups must be booked as one reservation in order to be seated together for dinner.

The Steamboat NATCHEZ is taking some time off, but her sister vessel, the Riverboat CITY of NEW ORLEANS will be taking her place. You’ll get the same authentic riverboat experience of a leisurely, two-hour cruise on the mighty Mississippi, enjoying traditional live jazz, craft cocktails, and all the beautiful New Orleans sites, while also exploring the newly renovated riverboat. Make sure you check out all four decks - the top deck view is a sight to see! Upgrade your ticket to include the dinner buffet.

Not just a boat, the Steamboat NATCHEZ is a time machine that fills its passengers with the romance and marvel of yesteryear! Cruise along the Mississippi River and let the Steamboat NATCHEZ whisk you away with its atmosphere and ambiance, with everything from a museum- quality Engine Room to the ship's orders being called over an old-time megaphone. This evening jazz cruise is a great way to experience New Orleans' beauty and culture.

As you steam ahead, soak in breathtaking views of the city skyline while enjoying a New Orleans cultural experience – a live jazz performance performed by the New Orleans band Dukes of Dixieland, a Grammy nominee.

Enjoy dining inside or outside on a delectable Louisiana-style buffet dinner including prime rib, chicken, pasta and salad. Two separate dining times give you the flexibility to enjoy the evening at your own pace.

A sample dinner menu can be found in the Itinerary section below.

The steamboat ride down the Mississippi and up were wonderful. It was a very calm and beautiful ride. Lots of seating space, drinks, and different entertainment. The one rhing I found it lacking was a bit more instruction on the dinner reservation. It all made sense later, but it took a few questions and some running around. Overall, it was a fantastic experience. Just ask questions before the time comes for dinner, so it's not stressful for you or the staff.

The ship was really nice. We really recommend the latest one as navigating during sunset/night improves the experience a lot. The food was also delicious. The only thing that could be improved is the bar as there's usually a long line to buy drinks.

My husband and I decided to do the evening jazz cruise but without the dinner - the reviews of the food weren't great. The music was excellent but the view was so-so and it didn't help that every school group in the entire country seemed to be onboard and running all over. I wouldn't recommend this

A very relaxing and interesting boat trip on the mighty Mississippi. Authentic old school paddle steam boat with lots of room to move around and take in all of the sights. Great commentary along the way and super band to add to the Dixieland atmosphere. We didn't do the meal option, but the food looked good.
