Delight your guests with an elegant and delicious dinner cruise along the mighty Mississippi River. Operated by New Orleans Paddlewheels, the 800-passenger Paddlewheeler Creole Queen is New Orleans’ most luxurious excursion riverboat. It is powered by a 24-foot-diameter paddlewheel and a modern diesel-electric system. Boasting outer decks with authentically patterned wrought iron trims, a richly appointed interior with plush Victorian style draperies, soft period lighting and wooden parquet dance floors, the boat will transport your guests to a bygone era. Three private dining rooms give her the largest indoor capacity available on excursion vessels in New Orleans. Guests will arrive to the dock—conveniently located in the heart of downtown New Orleans—and board the Paddlewheeler Creole Queen. They will be welcomed with refreshing drinks from a choice of beverage packages. As they mingle and listen to live music, guests can help themselves to a dinner buffet featuring an assortment of tasty New Orleans-style fare.
