Part of our annual newport trip.
We chose the Mimosa tour and it exceeded our expectations. Buying tickets online was a breeze, as was the check-in. Captain and crew were professional. Brian who narrated our tour answered questions with great detail and enthusiasm. The skies opened up before we left the dock. While passengers on sailboats got drenched, we remained comfortable under a canopy. —Diana S., 2021 Google review (photo courtesy of D.W)
The Lighthouse and Mimosa Cruise
We did the mimosa and lighthouse cruise and it was great!! Knowledgeable tour guides and great mimosas (and a cash bar if you want anything else). —J.C., 2023 Email (photo courtesy of J.C.)

This is the second year in a row my friends and I have taken a cruise with the SS Tiki Tours. As usual, we had a blast this year! Captain Greg is so fun and accommodating, as well as his 2 deck hands he had this time around. I love that there's a bathroom on board that was a big plus for me. He let us sing a little karaoke this trip which was fun. It's a very easy process to book and the instructions are clear on where to go to board and everything. You can even hit up Hooters for a beer before you get on. With 18 guests on 1 boat, it could get a little hectic but everything turned out to be orderly and simple to understand. We will be back next summer!
Josh was amazing! Thank his daughter for teaching him how to take awesome pictures. Will book this anytime we have friends coming into town. BOOK NOW you won't regret it!!! Thanks again, Josh!
Captain Greg and fist mate Claire were awesome - most fun I've had in awhile! Would definitely recommend!
Great tour. Perfect service, very safe. Fun environment. Pricing was reasonable, highly recommend.
A friend of ours booked another tiki outing 2 weeks after her first time on it, and luckily I scored an invite! It didn't take long to see why she was so hooked. Captain Kenton took us on a relaxing yet fun filled evening cruise to downtown and back. He periodically checked in to see if we needed bathroom stops and any special destination/photo stop requests. The highlight was venturing to the Licking River for the best view of the skyline. It was a fun escape from daily lockdown life. Can't wait to go on again when fireworks and concerts are back!
This is a great experience! Probably the best we've ever had in Cincinnati. Captain Kevin was an all star and told us all kinds of interesting facts about the city and the sights we came across. This is an absolute blast and a fun way to see the city like you've never seen it before. Sunset cruise at the end of the summer was a perfect time to do it. Can't recommend this enough! Thanks Kevin!
See all photos from Brett A. for SS Tiki Tours
I booked a Tiki Tour as a team-building activity and we are already talking about making this an annual tradition. Such a great experience! We took the four-hour cruise so we could see the sunset. We ordered food that had already been made, so we didn't need to use the grill, but it was nice to have that option. I could see that being a great thing to do during a Reds game or concert. Our captain, Kenton, was awesome. Super laid back and very fun. He even stopped at the dock in Newport so that we could use the restroom at one of the restaurants (I recommend doing this vs. the on board camper toilet, which smelled a little towards the end of our tour.) My only wish: We had to carry our cooler to the dock ourselves. (As 3 small ladies, it was a very steep ramp If they could supply a cooler/ ice that would've been super helpful (Not sure if it's feasible but just a suggestion.) Also, pro tip: Be dropped off or have a car come and get you. :) Either way, we would absolutely book another outing. Great times were had by all!
Perfect night for our 15 year anniversary all thanks to Kevin of the SS tiki tiki boat tour. We had a very magical night with the most amazing view and awesome captain. Kevin was a wonderful tour guide between his enjoyable knowledge of the area to his fantastic help with getting beautiful photos. (Unfortunately I am only able to share photos on this app that I took with my phone.)
This business is such a great addition to the area! If you are looking for a laidback, no hassle day out on the water this is absolutely the way to go! Our captain was Kenton, a delightful guy who ensured we have nothing to worry about beyond the umbrellas in our drinks. Booking was easy and haste free with the owner over the phone. If you go the last minute rate there are even same day deals you may be able to take advantage of. I highly a recommend a trip, it certainly won't be our last!
This guy ROCKS. He is definitely the captain you want on your trip with you. 5 stars!

The Best River Cruises In North America You Have To Try
Posted: December 11, 2023 | Last updated: December 11, 2023
Rolling on the river
Viking Mississippi Holiday Season cruise, USA
It’s never too early to start planning a Christmas markets cruise, and as much as we love the ones in Germany and Austria, nothing beats a festive float down the Mississippi. Highlights on this cruise , which snakes from Memphis to New Orleans, include stop-offs at Natchez, whose many historic buildings are festooned with Christmas lights, and Vicksburg, whose independent boutiques are great places to pick up presents. This is also a great cruise for twitchers – a huge number of bird species flock to this stretch of the Mississippi for winter.
Love this? Follow us on Facebook for more travel inspiration
M.S. Dixie II Lake Tahoe cruise, California, USA
Say hello to one of America’s most spectacular lake cruises. Your mode of transport for this sail across Lake Tahoe will be the M.S Dixie II – the lake’s biggest boat. The sunset dinner cruises are popular with couples, although we recommend the scenic daytime tours, which are a great way to explore North America’s largest alpine lake. This high-altitude body of water spreads into two states (California and Nevada), contains enough water to cover California with 14 inches of water and is deeper than the Empire State Building is tall.
Le Petit Navire Lachine Canal tour, Québec, Canada
If crowded cruise liners and transatlantic crossings don’t appeal, consider this leisurely sail along Canada’s 14-kilometer Lachine Canal, which slices through the southern section of Montréal, a city famous for its historic architecture. Don’t know your dingle from your dewater? You’ll gain a wonderful insight into the construction of this historic waterway as you pass through its locks, and you’ll also enjoy fantastic views of Montréal’s skyline. Your mode of transport is rather special too – a carbon-neutral, zero-pollution electric propulsion boat.
American Cruise Lines Alaska Inside Passage cruise, Alaska, USA
Alaska’s Inside Passage is an inland route weaving between islands on the Pacific Northwest coast and along glacier-lined fjords. Inside Passage cruises offer a different perspective on Alaska to coastal cruises, relying on smaller ships to reach more remote ports of call. Highlights of this cruise include the Strait of Georgia, where you’ll sail between Vancouver Island and British Columbia, and the glacier-fed waters of Frederick Sound – a brilliant whale watching spot.
Now check out the fabulous cruising facts you won't believe
Northwest Pioneers Cruise, Oregon and Washington, USA
As much as we love the mighty Mississippi, this brilliant river cruise , which wiggles through Oregon and Washington, is a fantastic reminder that there are plenty of other breathtakingly beautiful waterways to explore. On this adventure, you’ll sail along the Columbia River – the largest in America’s Pacific Northwest – and Snake River, which is the Columbia River’s largest tributary. It’s a great way to see some of America’s most underrated destinations, including the town of Astoria, which is the oldest American settlement west of the Rockies.
American Cruise Lines Puget Sound and San Juan Islands Cruise, Washington, USA
This seven-day cruise provides a brilliant insight into one of America’s most wildlife-rich regions: Washington state’s Puget Sound, America’s second largest estuary; and the San Juan Islands, a cluster of 172 islands and reefs where you’re likely to spot wildlife including whales and eagles. Don’t miss the chance to explore Port Townsend, sandwiched between Puget Sound and the Strait of Juan de Fuca, and famous for its Victorian-era architecture.
Viking America’s Heartland cruise, Upper Mississippi, USA
This is one of the best Mississippi cruises for anyone keen to learn about the people who shaped this part of the US, whether it’s the Norwegians who migrated here during the 1800s or the farmers who made this region one of America’s top culinary destinations. Stops include the Missouri city of St Louis, once known as the Gateway to the West; Hannibal, which was the setting for Mark Twain’s Adventures of Huckleberry Finn; and the Iowan city of Dubuque, home to the National Mississippi River Museum & Aquarium.
Viking Heart of the Delta cruise, USA
An eight-day cruise between Memphis and New Orleans, Viking’s Heart of the Delta cruise takes in the Mississippi’s best bits, including many listed monuments and buildings. For history buffs, highlights will include St Francisville, where there’s a whopping 140 buildings listed on the National Register of Historic Places, and Natchez, which has more listed buildings than any other American city. If you’re short on time, put Stanton Hall, which was built in the 1850s, at the top of your list – this Greek revival-style property is famous for its ornate mirrored parlors.
James River Batteau Company Batteau River tour, Virginia, USA
Short on time? Opt for this scenic river tour . Your mode of transport for this float along Virginia’s James River will be one of the beautiful wooden boats which have sailed this waterway for years. The two-hour tour along the river, which is Virginia’s longest, is a great way to see its wildlife – bald eagles, river otters and ospreys are regularly spotted. It’s a rather relaxed affair, and passengers are encouraged to cool off with a swim in the river.
Discover the beloved cruise ships that will never sail again
American Queen Voyages Clarkston to Portland cruise, USA
A brilliant cruise for history fans, this 10-day Snake River and Columbia River cruise starts in Clarkston and finishes in Vancouver, Washington – the route undertaken by explorers Captain Meriwether Lewis and Lieutenant William Clark in the early 1800s. It’s also a route lined with natural wonders, including Columbia Gorge, which slices through the Cascade Mountains, and Idaho’s Hell’s Canyon, which is deeper than the Grand Canyon and can be explored on a high-speed boat ride. The Columbia River stretch is where you’re most likely to see bison, elk and deer too.
American Queen Voyages Memphis to Nashville cruise, USA
This nine-day Memphis to Nashville cruise is a fantastic way to check out some of the southern state’s prettiest towns, whether it’s Paducah in Kentucky, famed for its arts and craft museum or Clarksville, Tennessee. The latter is famous for its breweries, distilleries and wineries, while historic sites include the Customs House Museum & Cultural Center, where you can learn about the town’s famous former residents, including Wilma Rudolph – the first American woman to win three gold medals in a single Olympic Games.
American Queen Voyages Mighty Mississippi Red Wing to New Orleans, USA
Can’t get enough of the Mighty Mississippi? Take a deep dive on this 16-day cruise between Red Wing and New Orleans. It’s a fantastic way to discover the landscapes which surround America’s second longest river. The Minnesotan city of Winona, for example, is built on a sandbar and dates back to 9,500BC. The excursions on this cruise are fantastic too. Our favorite? In the town of Hannibal, Missouri, you’ll get the chance to make your very own clay pot out of Mississippi mud.
Adventure Life Rivers of Adventure and Wine cruise, Oregon, USA
Your transport for this food and wine-themed cruise along the Columbia River is the Wilderness Legacy, a beautiful vessel designed to resemble a Victorian steamer. During the cruise, which starts and finishes in Portland, you’ll visit some of Oregon’s most important historical sites, but it’s the food and wine-themed stops that really set it apart. In the Hood River Valley, you can sign up for cycle rides between local vineyards, and in the Washington city of Walla Walla, you’ll visit a local chocolatier, olive oil producer, and brewery.
American Queen Voyages St Louis to Cincinnati cruise, USA
Get more bang for your buck from your river cruise by signing up for American Queen Voyages’ exploration of the Mississippi and Ohio Rivers. Stop-offs on this spectacular paddle steamer cruise include the Illinois city of Alton, which has a rich history and became a base for abolitionists in the 1800s, and Henderson in Kentucky. It’s another cruise with fantastic excursions, our favorite of which is a jet boat ride along a stunning section of the Ohio River near Carrollton, Kentucky.
American Queen Voyages Montréal to Detroit cruise, Canada and US
An 11-day cruise between two very different cities, this Montréal to Detroit sailing provides plenty of opportunities for urban explorations – you’ll visit Montréal, Québec City , Toronto and Cleveland, as well as quaint riverside towns such as Gananoque, in the heart of the Thousand Islands archipelago in Eastern Ontario. This particular cruise offers fantastic value for money – the cost of your sailing covers a wide range of excursions, including visits to Toronto’s CN Tower and catamaran tours of Niagara Falls.
St Lawrence Cruise Lines, Canada’s Capital North cruise, Canada
This Ottawa River cruise is a great way to explore two very different regions of Canada – more specifically Ontario and Québec. The six-day sailing is packed with fascinating stop-offs, including the wildlife-filled Thousand Islands, which straddle the border between America and Canada, and Fort Wellington, built in 1812. Love a lock? For many passengers, the highlight of this river cruise is the famous Carillion Lock, an enormous 182-tonne structure which has a flow rate of 2,000 cubic meters of water per second.
Pearl Seas Cruises Great Lakes and Georgian Bay cruise, US and Canada
Sign up for this 11-night cruise from Toronto to Milwaukee and you’ll get the chance to see four of the most beautiful Great Lakes, with time to visit attractions lining the route. For many, the highlight is Georgian Bay, where 30,000 islands form the world’s largest freshwater archipelago, and where you’ll be able to check out destinations such as traffic-free Mackinac Island by horse-drawn buggy. There are plenty of big hitters too – you’ll take a guided tour of Niagara Falls and visit the legendary Henry Ford Museum in Windsor, Ontario.
Le Boat Rideau Canal Cruise, Ontario, Canada
For something completely different, consider hiring your own river boat for a bespoke exploration of Canada’s Rideau Canal. The waterway, which is the oldest continuously-operated canal system in North America, is regarded as one of the world’s greatest engineering feats, and the UNESCO-listed canal is lined with historic sites. Your mode of transport? A luxury river boat kitted out with a kitchen, spacious bathrooms and sun deck. They’re surprisingly easy to drive too, thanks to powerful thrusters which make navigating locks a breeze.
American Cruise Lines Hudson River cruise, New York, USA
This New York round trip takes in the Hudson River’s best bits, busting the myth that its most spectacular section weaves through the Big Apple. You’ll explore it on the American Star, which has room for just 100 passengers and offers several stop-offs in the beautiful Catskill Mountains area. The cruise is especially popular with fans of architecture, who come to admire historic buildings such as the Vanderbilt Mansion (the former home of Franklin D. Roosevelt).
Viking Great River cruise, Mississippi, USA
This is another fantastic option for history buffs – a Mississippi River cruise filled with visits to some of America’s most important historic sites. In Red Wing, Minnesota, you’ll learn how New Englanders joined forces with German and Irish migrants to farm the fertile landscape, and in Burlington, Iowa, you’ll discover how the arrival of both steamboats and the railroad transformed this once sleepy town, filled with listed buildings. Don’t miss the chance to stand under the famous Gateway Arch in St Louis, Missouri – a crossroads for nineteenth-century explorers.
US Mailboat Cruises of Lake Winnipesaukee on the M/V Sophie C, New Hampshire, USA
Another fantastic option for anyone short on time, this cruise takes place on America’s oldest floating post office – a beautiful vessel which launched on Lake Winnipesaukee in 1945. During the two-hour cruise, you’ll visit several of Lake Winnipesaukee’s 253 islands, many of which were once home to indigenous people such as the Pennacooks. Don’t forget to send a postcard home – you’ll be able to post it on the boat, complete with an M/V Sophie C stamp.
