I arranged this dinner & jazz evening riverboat cruise to celebrate our 25th anniversary. We loved the food, the music, & the scenery. I was hoping there would be space for dancing, but it seems that a large group of band students took up all the dance floor space in front of the band. We still had a great time.

This cruise is so much fun. We splurged and got the VIP experience and I am so happy that we did. Gina, our personal concierge was absolutely amazing. She deserves a raise for sure! Captain John was so nice and full of information during the tour of the ship. We would definitely go back!

The reason for the four star is the overall experience was great. But the service at dinner was horrible. Our server ignored us through out most of the meal. She served others around us and forgot we were there. Brought one dessert and took about 10 minutes to bring the other. After she finally took our credit card for payment it was 15 minutes and we could not find her. We were the last ones in the dining room. Someone has to go looking for her so we could get our card

Totally awesome ride! Beautiful views of New Orleans from the mighty Mississippi! The music was great! This is definitely one worth doing again! Check this adventure off my bucket list!

The band were entertaining and talented. Could not hear the information being said over the tannoy, the bar was well stocked but the queue initially was excessive but was dealt with quickly

Christine_E

The band was amazing and the people onboard were great fun however I suggest people take their jackets with them as it turns very chilly

Allan_T

This is one of the things you have to do in n NOLA. However the cruise is short. The scenery industrial and half the crowd was drunk or getting there. Food was standard conference fare, not bad but not good. Music was well done but loud.

Emily_C

Absolutely fantastic! The band was incredible, the views were beautiful, and the boat ride was iconic! One of my favorite New Orleans experiences!

I would have given a 5 star but our 6 o’clock reservation was changed to 7:45. An email to explain why or ask if we wanted a different day, giving us the choice would have been very much appreciated. Food was good but they started running out of some choices. Otherwise the evening was delightful.

Great trip! This is the second time I’ve done it, brought my friends with this time. Relaxing, informative, with great views.
