amenity. Cruise to Vicksburg – hailed as the “Red Carpet City of the South” for
its hospitality – and Natchez, renowned for well-preserved antebellum mansions
and its historic downtown district. Enjoy longstanding local holiday traditions

classic Greek-revival plantation that has been called the “Grand Dame of the
Great River Road.” Also, pay a visit to the capital city of Baton Rouge and its
