8 Night “New Orleans to Memphis River Cruise”
If you’ve been dying to eat grits, drink iced tea and feel like a southern belle, a voyage through the Mississippi Delta on a steamboat sounds just right.
You’ll depart from New Orleans, this is the perfect time to sample some beignets, and from there, you’ll explore the romantic antebellum South, visiting historic mansions and towns as you head up to Memphis.
You can relax on deck with a copy of Huckleberry Finn or any other selection from their esteemed Mark Twain Gallery, enjoy some quiet time in the Ladies’ Tea Parlor, or play a board game in the Gentlemen’s Card Room.
For a once-in-a-lifetime experience, take a guided tour of the American Queen’s Engine Room to explore the inner workings of a classic, steam-powered ship.
Experience authentic Southern culture as you travel through living history and absorb the energy of the Antebellum era.
Abundant cotton fields, expansive sugar cane plantations, and imposing pillared mansions will transport you back in time… and so will the Civil War battlefields!
