Review summary

we loved the trip down the Mississippi from New Orleans very much. Up on deck 10 watching the sail down to Gulf. Very relaxing trip, great meals. Both buffet and MDR! Fabulous. Feel like I ate my way clean thru the whole cruise 😃. The friends we were with were very experienced cruisers and did not care for the amount of entertainment. Disappointed in it. There wasn't much in the line of entertainment until last two nites. Something needs to change perhaps in that because we had 3 sea days. Just a suggestion. Loved it, embarkation and debarkation was very smooth. Great time!

During the summer, we were sitting on deck 11 heading down the river when a man with a phone came and stood near us. As he watched the banks of the river, he was joined by his wife and other, adult family members. Moments later they all began to yell and scream at a group of houses. The man's kids were on the porch of their grandparents and waving at their mom and dad as they cruised by!

Check to see if the Triumph will be going out or coming in. It's fun to go up top and yell to the other ship as you pass each other near the mouth of the Mississippi!

The trip down the Mississippi River is like getting a free excursion.
