Mississippi River Cruise Destinations
Every Mississippi itinerary is a string of landings rich in music, history and Southern charm. Here is what waits at each.
New Orleans, Louisiana
The soulful start or finish — the French Quarter, Creole cuisine, live jazz and an overnight to soak it in before or after the cruise.
Oak Alley & the Plantations
The great River Road mansions between New Orleans and Baton Rouge, with their avenues of live oaks and antebellum history.
Natchez, Mississippi
The best-preserved antebellum town on the river, with grand mansions and Mississippi bluff-top views.
Vicksburg, Mississippi
The pivotal Civil War siege site — the national military park and battlefield tell the story of 1863.
Memphis, Tennessee
Home of the blues and Beale Street, Graceland and Sun Studio — a music lover’s highlight of the Lower river.
Upper river: Hannibal, St. Louis & St. Paul
Mark Twain’s boyhood Hannibal, the Gateway Arch at St. Louis and the bluffs north to St. Paul on Upper Mississippi voyages.
