Board your riverboat to the delightful tunes of the Steam Calliope. Experience the sights and sounds of river life that enchanted characters of history and literature - like Mark Twain's Huck Finn and Tom Sawyer - and see the bustling activity of America's second-largest port!

Please note, the boat boards at 11:00am and departs promptly at 11:30am. We offer two seating times for lunch - 11:00 and 12:15pm. If you select the first lunch seating, please arrive around 10:45am and go straight to the dining room when you board the vessel.

Enjoyed the narration but difficult to hear at points. Not exactly a beautiful tour given you are going down the very commercial part of the Mississippi, but very interesting factoids! Great drinks. Music was great but get there early if you have any hopes of sitting near it.
