From wild bayous to the Mississippi River, experience Louisiana’s natural and musical heartbeat with the Steamboat NATCHEZ Evening Jazz Cruise with Dinner Option + Jean Lafitte Swamp Tours. This package pairs a daytime eco-adventure with an elegant night of dining, jazz, and river views.

Start your day exploring the untamed wetlands of the Jean Lafitte National Historical Park and Preserve. Led by expert Cajun captains, you’ll journey deep into the bayou aboard a covered swamp boat. Marvel at moss-draped cypress trees and spot wildlife such as alligators, raccoons, and herons. Along the way, learn about Cajun traditions, Louisiana’s swamp ecology, and the legendary privateer Jean Lafitte himself.

After your backcountry adventure, return to the city for an evening aboard the Steamboat NATCHEZ. Before departure, enjoy a whimsical calliope concert from the dock. Then, step aboard for a two-hour jazz cruise along the Mississippi River. As the Dukes of Dixieland fill the air with classic swing, savor the optional Creole dinner buffet featuring jambalaya, gumbo, and other Louisiana favorites.

From the open-air top deck, watch as the lights of the French Quarter reflect across the water—a picture-perfect finale to your Louisiana day.
This combo delivers the full New Orleans experience: adventure by day, ambiance by night.
