efore it was Music City,
it was a River City.

Nashville’s roots run deep-and they run right through the Cumberland River. Long before the neon lights and honky-tonks, the river carried the stories, sounds, and spirit of this city. Now, it’s time to let the river sing again.

Introducing

Nashville Riverboats

A new way to experience Music City. Our sightseeing and dining cruises blend Nashville’s iconic soundscape with panoramic views of its historic riverfront. From the calliope whistles to live music on deck, every cruise is a celebration of the city’s rhythm, heritage, and hospitality. Every turn of the wheel carries over a century of riverboat history.

Built on five generations of riverboating tradition, we’re creating a river of memories, right in the heart of downtown Nashville. 

Come aboard and discover a side of Nashville you’ve never seen.

Set sail aboard one of the last operating steam-powered paddlewheelers in America, where every cruise offers a unique blend of Nashville history, Southern hospitality, and unforgettable river views.

Whether you’re looking for a sightseeing adventure, a romantic dinner on the water, or a
