Designed and built in Sunbury on Thames, this colourful Mississippi style stern wheeler brings a flavour of old New Orleans to the River Thames. The lower deck features deep carpets and rich upholstery with original mahogany tables.

Placed at either end of the vessel, two grand period spiral staircases lead to the large upper deck with its attractive wooden flooring.

The open plan deck is suitable for a sit down meal, dance floor or simply as an area for guests to socialise with one another.

With a fully equipped galley this vessel can serve any style of menu. The open foredeck provides an ideal space for guests to take in the sites of the passing Thames. There is easy access from all levels to the bar which is fully licensed and open for the entirety of the cruise.

The largest vessel in the Turks fleet, the New Southern Belle can accommodate up to 150 guests in total or 86 for a sit-down dinner.
