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.

There is something to do or see everywhere. You can walk to almost anything you want to see. The trolley is a great option when wanting to go check things out that are outside of the city. There is a beautiful park and art museum at the end of the trolley line and is well worth the trip. Some great restaurants outside of the city as well.

The boat was nice, but the scenery wasšŸ‘ŽšŸ¼. To many insects on board, it was so bad we couldnā€™t stay outside

The "insects" and not really on board - they are around the city right now. They come in this time of year, stay a short while and they are gone. Although pesky, there is nothing we can do with them flying by, and they do not bite or cause any harm. We are sorry they hampered your cruise.

It was pouring rain with thunder and lightning on the day of our cruise. We were told we were sailing anyway. Unfortunately the rain precluded us from going to the top deck for the best views. Also the jazz was minimal for a jazz cruise and there was more history from the captain than jazz. And the cruise was at least:0 minutes too long. All with bad food and overpriced drinks. A disappointment.
