New Orleans Ultimate Getaway

Independent 5-day New Orleans city stay with six included extras

Illustration of New Orleans Ultimate Getaway

Amtrak Vacations packages this 5-day, 4-night independent city stay in New Orleans, called the Ultimate Getaway. Rail travel to and from New Orleans is not included in this price and is booked separately. No day-by-day itinerary is published, so travelers fill in the rest of their own time exploring the French Quarter. This suits travelers who want more included sightseeing and dining than the standard New Orleans Getaway, in a single independent city stay.

What to know before you look closer

  • The included list names a Steamboat Natchez Daytime or Evening Cruise, but the description also mentions a Creole Queen Paddle Wheeler cruise; confirm which vessel is included before booking.
  • The description also mentions a New Orleans Multi-Day Pass covering more than 20 attractions, which is not listed among the official inclusions above; confirm with the operator whether it applies to this package.
  • No hotel name or star rating is given in the evidence, so the specific property is unknown until you book.
