Fall Foliage
The most beautiful time of year on the rivers.

Experience the captivating scenery of the Mississippi River, the rolling hills and manicured farmland of the Ohio Valley or the serene beauty of the Tennessee and Cumberland rivers at one of the best times of the year, when Mother Nature puts on her spectacular coat of many colors! And there's no better way to see the fall foliage than from the deck of a majestic steamboat.

Our knowledgeable naturalists, like perennial favorite Jim Williams, will be on hand to help identify the flora and fauna as we steam leisurely along the river. And throughout the cruise, you'll sip and sample the bounty of Heartland America at harvest time, from refreshing apple cider to spiced pumpkin pie.

So come celebrate the change in seasons, the thrill of watching migratory birds heading south, the fun of strolling through the leaves in tiny river towns, the romance of dancing beneath a harvest moon and the pleasure of waking up to a cup of freshly brewed coffee as the sun rises on a mist-shrouded river. And as we cruise along the river, you'll feel a sense of wonder as the brilliant hues of autumn in America unfold before you. Amid all the comfort and hospitality of Steamboatin', your cruise through the heartland at harvest time will be filled with mile after mile of magical moments forming a lifetime of memories.
