The Natchez Pilgrimage Tours (NPT) in Natchez, MS is your best source for planning a perfect trip to Natchez.  We assist individuals and groups of all sizes in planning a Natchez visit, including historic mansion tours, private guides, special events, and more. Natchez Pilgrimage Tours — an arm of the Pilgrimage Garden Club — is the only full-service receptive tour operator in Natchez. We customize your trip, free of mark-ups or fees for our direction and expertise. Let us guide you to the perfect Natchez experience! Founded in 1716, Natchez is the oldest city on the Mississippi River. The first route into Natchez was the Natchez Trace, originally a buffalo trail and later used by Native Americans and early settlers. With the advent of steamboat travel in the early 19th century, the Trace fell into disuse. But now the trail is administered by the National Park Service, it runs 450 miles between Nashville and Natchez, a green and peaceful route dotted with interpretive exhibits, 18th-century inns, and picnic sites. Natchez is also home to dozens of African-American heritage sites, including historic churches, neighborhoods established by freedom after the Civil War, the boyhood home of internationally acclaimed author Richard Wright, and the Forks of the Road, site of the second-largest slave market in the South. While here explore downtown Natchez, which offers great shopping — antiques, unique gifts, and bookstores — plus an exceptional number of casual and fine dining restaurants and a cooking school. In Natchez, where Native American, African-American and European cultures have blended to make Natchez a unique place, we’re proud that progress is a neighbor of the past. We’re easy to find at the lower end of the Trace on the bluffs of the Mississippi River. To capture the full extent and feeling of Natchez, MS visit us soon for an unforgettable experience taking you back in history to experiencing today’s southern charm!
