We are 2 couples. Onside ring a Mississippi River cruise next year. The one listed from Nashville to New Orleans has an appeal. What ship is this?

This tour will be having a lunch cruise on day 11 for 2 hours. This cruise will be ran by a third party company. The Tour Director will be able to give you the name of the cruise line while on tour.

I am mobile but cannot walk a long way. I wondered how much walking was involved in this trip

We don't have exact distances of how much walking is involved at each destination, but as there are sight-seeing visits at most stops there will be walking involved at each place, which may sometimes involve walking from the coach to the venue you are visiting. The Tour Director will also be able to advise at each place how much walking is involved, and if it seems too much can help advise what you could do independently and where the meeting time and place will be so that you can take it at your leisure.

Patrick and Toris were exceptional leaders and very very helpful and accommodating- would have loved to have seen Layfayette thought we'd have at least seen the major things but just the inside of the hotel and the bluff because I chose to go for a walk there, if everyone had had a chance to introduce themselves that'd would have been great too so I could have known them from the start. But overall excellent service and team, thank you to Patrick and Toris.Show more
