Everything is big about the Mississippi River and this includes the great history surrounding it.

Our boat tour of the Mississippi River that launches from Vicksburg Mississippi, travels the same waters that the USS Cairo patrolled during the Civil War.

The USS Cairo was an American warship. It was an ironclad warship built at the beginning of the U.S. Civil War. It was called Cairo and was the lead ship of the gunboats and named for Cairo, Illinois. In 1862, the USS Cairo captured the Confederate garrison of Fort Pillow on the Mississippi River. The capture enabled Union forces to occupy Memphis.
