Good experience - Great experience. We bought the brunch trip, served on level 1. Good food. Bowl of gumbo and 3 mimosa tickets per person given by wait staff. Ask if they’re not provided. We didn’t know about the Mimosas, so they were nice. The jazz band on level 2 played well and there was interesting commentary. If the brunch isn’t purchased, snacks and drinks are available at the bar. It was a nice boat, not the Natchez but the same standard. Very relaxing. Air conditioned inside and plenty of seating outside. Photo taken and available for purchase.

Put on your “must do” list in New Orleans - Very hard to understand the narrating inside dining because everyone was talking. Would be great if there was a QR code to scan to listen to what was being said. I was able to ingest about 50% of what was said. Other than that the experience is definitely a “must do”. Enjoyed the brunch, different levels of seating, and relaxing.

Great way to see the sights! - The brunch buffet was a good offering - scrambled eggs, sausage, ham, home fried potatoes, shrimp & grits, biscuits and gravy, salad smoked salmon and desserts. The seating was spread out to not feel crowded, the ship stays locked while brunch is being served. After eating, we made our way out to the seating areas on the lower deck to enjoy the breeze and listen to the captain give a wonderful narrative about the sites and historical locations down the Mississippi River. Best staff attendant: Milton! 10/10 Hint: Port side has the best views of the sights described by the Captain.

Bad - I paid for a steamboat, and obviously we were assigned to the sister boat, the copy one which works on … diesel. Big disapointment!
