New Orleans dinner cruises typically return to dock around 9:00 PM. The Steamboat Natchez and Paddlewheeler Creole Queen both schedule their standard evening cruises from 7:00 PM to 9:00 PM, with boarding beginning around 6:00 PM or 6:30 PM. Holiday and special-event cruises have separate departure and return times.
