Golden Pipes

Once upon a time, the sounds of a calliope would echo out across New Orleans – drawing those near and far to the city’s riverfront.

One hundred years later, the call remains the same.

Three times a day for the past 25 years, Debbie Fagnano has climbed atop the Steamboat NATCHEZ to play the 32-note steam pipe organ – signaling that another cruise will soon begin.

The NATCHEZ celebrates its 40th anniversary in April 2015. In 2013, the iconic steamboat carried 304,000 passengers – a number expected to have increased significantly in 2014.

Are you “in that number?” With special Christmas Eve and New Year’s Eve cruises, a steamboat cruise is sure to add a little local flair to your holidays. SteamboatNatchez.com
