French Creole and Cajun cuisine amidst the non-stop activity of street musicians, mimes, pavement artists and the legendary night clubs. Plenty of optional excursions will also be available. You can enjoy a trip on an authentic sternwheeler and tour New Orleans by night.

DAY 13 - Free in New Orleans to explore at leisure. DAY 14 - Transfer to the airport for your return flight to the UK. DAY 15 - Arrival in the UK. PADDLE STEAMER, NEW ORLEANS DAY 10 - Included sightseeing tour of Vicksburg. The town is nearly surrounded by the National Military Park, which is as much part of Vicksburg as the historic streets and houses in the centre. DAY 11 - Drive to the charming port of Natchez, straddling the Mississippi River. This aristocratic town prospered enormously during the boom days of the cotton industry. Today vast plantations and over 500 magnificent mansions reflect the splendour of that era. A tour of this town and an elegant ante-bellum home will be made before continuing into Louisiana and on to New Orleans, the Souths most beautiful and exciting city. Three nights accommodation has been arranged. Louisiana has a distinct historic and ethnic atmosphere. The land is semi-tropical, beautifully unusual, full of legend and tradition; a land of bayous with cypress and live oak overhung with Spanish moss. The French Arcadians (Cajuns) settled here after their expulsion by the British from Nova Scotia, and French influences remain all-pervasive, especially in wonderful New Orleans, the home of Mardi Gras and Dixieland Jazz. DAY 12 - Weve included a morning sightseeing tour of the city. You will see Jackson Square, the downtown district, Lake Pontchartrain, the Superdome and of course the famous French Quarter. Its narrow streets, wrought iron balconies, seafood restaurants, and flower-bedecked verandas ring to the sound of authentic jazz from the bars and cafés of fabled Bourbon Street.
