Enjoyable and peaceful boat ride. Jimbo is very knowledgeable and Captain Terri is a lot of fun. Highly recommend this boat tour!! I would certainly do it again.

The Captain and First mate did an awesome job! They provided some interesting history of the river and region, they took music requests, took pictures for us, and most importantly got us safely up the river and back. A fun time had by all in our group!

What a great adventure in the middle of a great day touring Nashville. You are still right I'm the heart of the city off of Broadway, but enjoy some quite on the Cumberland! The ride was the break we needed on our trip! Don't do the street bike/bar tour do this! You don't really need to peddle if you don't want! Captain Levi and Second in Charge Elliott were incredible tour guides!

Excellent trip on the River boat pontoon cruise. Our guides were extremely friendly and extremely knowledgeable. Highly recommend to anyone coming to Nashville for a visit and want to do something other than listen to music!

The pontoon was so memorable. Peaceful background, fun yet educational history, good music, wonderful people, it was great vibes all around! It was so worth it! Turn on your smart watch to track the activity ;)

I booked this during my boyfriend’s birthday weekend trip and it was awesome! It was so much fun! Most definitely glad I chose this over the bike pedal bars. Elliott and the Captain/owner (can’t remember her name, sorry!) were great! They took our song requests and gave a tour of things we would see along the River! I would HIGHLY recommend booking this experience!

So much fun! Elliott & Virginia were great! They provided microphones for singing and had ice for our drinks. They shared just the right amount of info about the area and kept things light and fun.

5/5 Stars, 100% recommended. We had the absolute best, most fun late-morning pedal pontoon cruise with our group. Lots of laughter, great music, dancing and enjoying city views from the water. Our captain and host were super fun and made sure we had a great experience.

We had a great time on the pedal pontoon celebrating my husband's birthday. The Captain arrived on time, and had the coolers packed with ice and ready for us. They were very knowledgeable on the history of the river and the city. They also had us stop for a great photo opportunity. I highly recommend for a small group!

We had a phenomenal time on the boat! We were singing, dancing (even though we were supposed to be peddling lol), and enjoying cold drinks on a hot sunny day! The boat it BYOB and they provided coolers with ice. Our 2 captains (the lady from Miami and the guy with the long hair, I’m so so sorry I cannot remember your names) were wonderful! They were very friendly and so informative about the history of the river and Nashville! I would definitely recommend this as a must do activity if you’re in Nashville!

Captain V and Eliot were so awesome! They made the ride very entertaining, we’re extremely accommodating and great photographers. Highly recommend the sunset cruise for a beautiful view of Nashville on the water.

We had an amazing time! We booked a private pontoon for a birthday party. Everyone really enjoyed themselves! Levi and Elliott were amazing! They were kind and took pictures for us. They played the best music and gave us a little history lesson! I was really the best time we could have asked for. Can’t wait to do it again!

Captain Annie & Elliott were fantastic on our pedal pontoon ride earlier this week! Super fun, helpful, and inclusive. Along with dj'ing some great tunes, they gave us a few fun facts along the river ride. We had originally tried to book a different time slot, but unfortunately, not enough people signed up for that one. They worked fast to get us on a different cruise the same day, so it all worked out great! I booked this for my cousin who was getting married, and they made her feel very special. She had a great time, so thank you again! Two items to note for anyone looking to book with them (which you should!): *They provide the coolers and ice onboard in the center of the pedal seats, but it's BYOB. Dont forget to bring yourself a drink! *Make sure you take the opportunity to use the Bridge Building restroom prior to the cruise. There's only an emergency toilet onboard (no enclosed bathroom). It's completely unrelated, but i recommend walking across the pedestrian footbridge for some great views of downtown Nashville before or after your pedal pontoon cruise!

We really debated between going with the pedal boat or the pedal bikes on Broadway. So glad we went with the boat! We had a great group of people, the captain & the guide kept the music going with all-requests playlists! We had a great time!

We had the most fun time for our joint bachelor/bachelorette party! Virginia and Elliot kept us entertained and having fun the whole time! We highly recommend using River Queen Voyages if you want to have the best time!!

One of the absolute highlights of our group trip to Nashville! Virginia and Elliot were fabulous and went above and beyond to help our group have an enjoyable 1.5 cruise on the Cumberland River. They cued up a playlist of songs our group wanted to sing along to, took a fabulous group picture , provided a microphone for those who needed to feel like they were getting their Nashville solo on, sold me a shirt - after an unfortunate shotgunning incident :), told us some interesting facts about the local area, and even tried really hard to book us a dinner reservation for 15 (**book early if this is how big your group is!).

Captain Levi and Elliot were both great. We had a relaxing cruise on the Cumberland River and saw the beautiful Nashville skyline. Both Levi and Elliot were extremely knowledgeable about the river and we enjoyed seeing a blue heron during our cruise. We highly recommend this cruise
