On another day, a New Orleans City Tour will provide visits to the Garden District, Longue Vue Gardens & House and an above ground cemetery. While traveling outside of New Orleans, visit Oak Alley Plantation, one of the state’s most visited antebellum homes featuring a quarter-mile long canopy of giant live oak trees, believed to be 300-years old. Time at lei- sure during this program will allow you to experience New Orleans and the French Quarter at your own pace. Cafes, art galleries and shopping are steps away from your hotel. Maybe visit the Mardi Gras Museum, World War II Museum or take a peek at Santa’s Quarter, a popular holiday store.

New Orleans is one of the most photogenic & unique cities in the world.

The study focuses on the fitful— and often futile—efforts of the French, the English, the Spanish, and the Americans to establish plantation agriculture in Natchez and its environs, a district that emerged as the heart of the “Cotton Kingdom” in the decades following the American Revolution.

  • Brand New Mississippi Sternwheeler from American Cruise Lines
    Brand New Mississippi Sternwheeler from American Cruise Lines Guilford, CT - American Cruise Lines has announced it is expanding to the Mississippi River system with a brand new sternwheeler, already under construction at Chesapeake Shipbuilding in Salisbury, MD. It plans to operate the new riverboat on routes similar to those formerly run by Delta Queen Steamboat Company, which will include the Mississippi, Ohio, Tennessee, and Cumberland Rivers. Cruising the Mississippi River on a sternwheeler is a true all-American experience that American Cruise Lines is pleased to bring back. The new paddlewheeler will recreate the grandeur of past riverboats while possessing the latest safety, environmental and construction technologies. The ship will have the look of a traditional riverboat along with more amenities, a faster speed, and an unmatched level of comfort. Features include six unique lounges, a library, an elegant dining salon, elevator service to all decks, and the exceptionally large staterooms found on all American Cruise Lines ships. With only 140 passengers, each guest will receive personalized service in the intimate and friendly atmosphere for which American Cruise Lines has become known. The first cruise is a scheduled to depart August 11, 2012 from New Orleans, Louisiana on a 7-night journey up the Mississippi to Memphis, Tennessee. The ship will then begin a series of 7-night cruises travelling as far north as St. Paul, Minnesota while utilizing its remarkable speed to open up new itinerary possibilities. As on all true riverboats, a stage and bow ramp will give the ship access to the many interesting ports without docking facilities.

  • Natchez Under the Hill
    May 19, 2002--- NATCHEZ, Miss.--My favorite view of America is from the front room balcony of the Mark Twain Guest House, above the Under the Hill Saloon on Silver Street in Natchez. The balcony overlooks the Mississippi River. Directly west of the balcony, twin Mississippi River bridges connect Natchez with Vidalia, La. The sun sets behind these truss bridges. When I was younger, sunset in Key West, Fla., offered distant possibilities. But as you get older, you understand rivers more than seas. The "Under the Hill" district is an anchor of the oldest settlement on the Mississippi River. It gets its name because it is located at the bottom of a dramatic 217-foot bluff. Besides the saloon and three-room guest house, Silver Street consists only of a couple of restaurants, a gift shop and a gambling boat. Sunset is a quiet affair, reserved for solitary travelers or couples holding hands while walking along Bailey Park, which borders the river. It wasn't always this way. The brick saloon building dates back to the 1830s. The guest house used to be a bordello. One black and white picture in the saloon is from 1870, when warehouses stood across the street from the whorehouses. The wharfs were stocked with merchandise ready to be put on steamboats that were heading down river. Seasoned timber from the upper reaches of the river was used in building America's first pre-fabricated houses in Natchez. Rapid rise in trade with Mexico and the Spanish West Indies brought all kinds of colorful characters to the Under the Hill district.

  • Economic Impact of the Mississippi River Cruise Industry City of Natchez, Mississippi
    Economic Impact of the Mississippi River Cruise Industry City of Natchez, Mississippi This report will focus on two (2) steamboat companies that currently dock at Natchez and should be used as a general overview. The two companies are the American Cruise Line Company and American Queen Steamboat Company. Both of these companies manage vessels that are capable of landing at a boat ramp, the boats have a “gangplank” that spans from the boat to the shore, so that passengers may disembark the ship. American Cruise Line The American Cruise Line (ACL) currently has four (4) vessels; they are the America, Queen of the Mississippi, Harmony, and the Song. Since 2017, at least one and often two of these vessels have docked in Natchez approximately forty-six (46) weeks a year. The docking schedule may vary due to weather or river conditions, but usually the vessels are here on Monday (or Tuesday) every week except during the middle of our hot, humid summertime and at Christmas. The ACL vessels have an average capacity of 195 passengers. During high season, October through May, the vessels are usually close to full capacity. During colder and warmer months, the vessels are usually just over half-capacity. ACL vessels historically dock at Natchez around 8:00 AM, having come from either Vicksburg to the north or St. Francisville from the south. The vessels will remain in Natchez for the entire day, customarily leaving around 4:30 pm. While the ACL vessels boats are in Natchez, their passenger have a choice of activities which include touring of our many historic home, tour of Frogmore Plantation, utilizing the Hop-On, Hop Off Shuttle, playing a round of golf, enjoying a beer at The Natchez Brewery, or strolling through our historic downtown.

Riforgiato In the nineteenth century the archbishopric of Baltimore held a special position within the American church. As the first diocese and metropolitan see, its archbishop was accorded a position of honor among the hierarchy, despite the fact that by mid century other cities had eclipsed it as centers of American Catholicism. The death of Samuel Eccleston, fifth archbishop of Baltimore on 22 April 1851 set in motion a struggle for the succession to the premier see that reveals much about the divisions among the hierarchy in antebellum America. Archbishop Eccleston's death was not unexpected. He suffered a nervous disorder of sorts in 1843 which caused "hallucinations of persecution." Two years later he was thrown from his carriage and suffered severe head injuries."2 At best Eccieston was never a strong leader.

  • 6 European Colonization in Mississippi
    6 EUROPEAN COLONIZATION IN MISSISSIPPI1 JACK D. ELLIOTT, JR. INTRODUCTION The purpose of this report is to identify the cultural resources of Mississippi pertaining to the Period of European Colonization. The cultural resources include both sites and buildings. The term “sites” is the more inclusive of the two terms. Sites are the places at which past activities occurred and consequently include sites on which are located historic building, sites with archaeological remains, and even sites which were the scenes of past activities, yet at which there are no extant physical remains other than the physical landscape, associated with those events. The Period of European Colonization is separated from the preceding Period of European Exploration by the beginning of permanent European settlement. Permanent settlement is particularly important for the aspect of historic preservation programs that deal with Euro-American culture in that it marks the inception of a time period in which we first find significant numbers of sites and other remains of occupation. Prior to the beginning of permanent European settlement in Mississippi the European presence was confined to merely sporadic expeditions and wanderers that seldomed on the same site for more than a season at most. Such sites have typically been difficult if not impossible to identify. It has only been with the inception of permanent European settlement that we first have settlements that were sufficiently permanent that they can be identified through maps, written sources, and archaeological remains. Consequently, the distinction between the periods of exploration and colonization is more fundamental than that between the period of colonization and the succeeding periods under American jurisdiction.

  • Coy's House, Natchez, Mississipi
    THE SOUTH EAST: COY’S HOUSE, NATCHEZ, MISSISSIPI. Tukufu: We flew almost 700 miles west for our next investigation in Natchez, Mississippi. The South before the Civil War was home to a slave-owning white aristocracy, who were some of the richest people on Earth. Natchez, Mississippi, was their crown jewel and playground. So was it possible that their neighbor who owned this house was an African American? I’m Tukufu Zuberi, and I’ve come to Natchez to unravel this perplexing story. The owners of this beautiful Natchez house are Jim and Ruth Coy. Ruth Coy: The house seems to be alive, much like a tree, the bark on a tree. It’s been here awhile and it’s to be respected. Jim Coy: Well, I love houses that have a history because I like the feeling of being somewhere that other people have lived their lives. Tukufu: The Coys know a bit about their house, but there’s one part of its history that nobody’s been able to explain. Jim Coy: An African American named Robert Smith built the house in 1851. Tukufu: An African American built this house? What else do you know about him? Jim Coy: Well, the other interesting mystery is that we know that he traveled South on a slave ship. My wife and I would like to know, how does a slave traveling on a slave ship come to owning this beautiful home? Tukufu: So Robert Smith went from traveling a slave ship to owning this beautiful home. I don’t see how that’s possible.
