Uncover both the elegance and the eerie side of New Orleans with the Steamboat NATCHEZ Evening Jazz Cruise with Dinner Option + History & Haunts Carriage Tours. This package combines the city’s romantic riverfront charm with its spine-tingling legends for one unforgettable night.
Begin with an evening aboard the Steamboat NATCHEZ, one of the last authentic paddlewheel steamboats on the Mississippi River. As the Dukes of Dixieland perform lively jazz, watch the city light up against the water’s edge. The optional Creole dinner buffet offers a mouthwatering lineup of local favorites—gumbo, jambalaya, baked fish, and bread pudding—served fresh on board. Sip a cocktail from the bar, listen to live narration about the city’s history, and take in the skyline views from the open-air deck.
After your cruise, return to the cobblestone streets of the French Quarter for the History & Haunts Carriage Tour. Step aboard a mule-drawn carriage and travel through centuries of mystery as your licensed guide shares stories of voodoo queens, restless spirits, and infamous residents like Madame LaLaurie. The soft clip-clop of hooves and the glow of gas lamps set the perfect mood for this haunting yet family-friendly adventure.
This combination embodies the dual nature of New Orleans—refined yet mysterious, joyful yet haunted.
