I have fond memories of this from my first ever trip to NOLA, though we did the streetcar out and the boat back, which had us cruising down the river during sunset. Lovely.

But I thought I had heard that the Audubon cruises had been discontinued a few years ago. I'd love to be proven wrong, if anyone has a current link.
