I'm on a work trip to CVG Airport, so in my free time I'm putting myself out there to see the area. I booked this on my own. I was assigned a table all to myself. I did not want that. So, I share that info with a woman at next table and she invited me to join her and her friend. I was welcomed in their little circle and made great new friends! The food was DELICIOUS! THE DJ played great music. Thank you for a wonderful tour and outting!

What a fantastic time on the Cincinnati River Cruise! The river views were wonderful, offering stunning cityscapes. The musicians were fantastic, setting a perfect mood. I really enjoyed the buffet options too. My only minor suggestion would be for more announcements – like where the musicians are, and clearer instructions for getting off the boat to avoid everyone rushing off like sardines. Still, highly recommend this experience for a great evening out!
