    One end
    Mouf K.

    The Savannah Riverboat cruise is a "one and done" experience that I wouldn't repeat for the price. The two-hour ride is scenic, and the four-level boat is impressive, but bring a jacket--it was freezing both on deck and inside the cabin this April. While we had a nice window seat, the real dealbreaker was the food. The buffet looks great, but the quality is just not there. It was edible, but honestly, it was not good at all. It completely failed to deliver on taste. You're paying for the views, not the meal, and because the food was such a letdown, I seriously doubt I'll be back.

    We had such a fun time on the Savannah Riverboat! The surprise cannon blast definitely caught us off guard (in a good way ). The tour went farther than we expected -- we got to cruise under the bridge and learn some cool history along the way. Bonus: we even spotted a few dolphins swimming nearby, which made it extra special. Overall, a really relaxing and scenic way to see Savannah from the water. Would recommend if you're visiting! $40 was worth is for a first timer

    Had a wonderful dinner and enjoyed the atmosphere. Great service from our beautiful server, De'Asia. She was attentive, ensured we had drinks and all we needed thru dinner service so we could enjoy our anniversary.

    The boat ride narration is mind numbing! Unbelievable boring. Get a beer and bring sandwiches to enjoy the ride.

    Dinner Rolls and salad

    Experienced the Savannah Riverboat Cruise for dinner recently on a birthday trip for my BFF. The menu included Roasted Potatoes, Squash Casserole, Mixed Vegetables, Lemon & Artichoke Chicken, Prime Rib carving station, Shrimp & Grits, Fish, Salad, Dinner Rolls, & Dessert. Tea, Lemonade, Soda, Water & Coffee included. We missed the dessert because we went walking around, and didn't know it was coming later. They had a full bar with a nice selection of wines. We ordered a bottle of Prosecco for the table. The food was seasoned well and filling. There was entertainment on 2 levels of the boat. The duo on our floor was great, performing a mixture of R&B and pop songs. The 2nd level had the line dance songs rocking after everyone finished dinner. The view from the boat was beautiful & relaxing. It was chilly, but it was a great night to be on the water. They also offer a brunch cruise that looks appealing as well.

    We took this cruise on our 1st year anniversary celebration on Nov 18th, 2025. Me and wife enjoyed their food, detailed and guided tour by the captain during the cruise explaining the history of the port and the city of Savannah. Their on board bar and restaurant is very nice as well. Overall we had a very nice relaxing cruise afternoon. I highly recommend this tour while you're in Savannah !!!

    Savannah riverboat cruise located riverfront Savannah, GA One of the main attractions in Savannah is the River Boat cruise .They offer a Lunch and dinner cruises up and down the Savannah River. Tickets may be purchased online, or with event vendors at most hotels on or surrounding the riverfront. We chose the dinner cruise (buffet style) with live entertainment (one man band). The buffet consisted of Prime rib, baked chicken and grouper for the protein and salad, mix vegetables, squash casserole and potatoes. The live entertainment was a gentleman... pretty good singer and guitarist. The crew was super friendly and accommodating... appreciated that, they made the experience worthwhile.

    We loved this and had such a nice time. The boat was gorgeous and we were able to learn so much about Savannah and the port.

    Sunset cruise

    I did the sunset cruise with my husband. Here are some details rapid fire. Bottom two decks are reserved for the "dinner cruise" ticket holders. The top two decks are reserved for the "sunset cruise" ticket holders. After the dinner is over people can go to other decks. The scenery was ok. A lot of industrial sights since you're on the river with the use of cargo ships. Sunset cruisers have access to apps and sandwiches and fountain and alcoholic drinks. (That you pay for of course) They had things like potato wedges, fries, phillys, etc. In my opinion you could definitely do dinner with those options available. Restrooms available on board on levels 1-3. They take one of those touristy photos in front of the boat before you board if you're into that. You have to get your boarding pass from the red shop across from the boat (across the street) before getting on. Parking is iffy if you want something close. There ARE public lots close but they are always full so use your judgment. There are several parking garages within walking distance also.

    This tour was ok. I think the boat looks much cooler than actually being on it. We took a sightseeing cruise on a rainy day which I don't recommend. It's better when you can be on the outdoor areas of the boat. Tips: If you want to sit by a window, show up to board at least 1:30 hours ahead of time. There is an elevator to floors 2 and 3. You can order snacks on the third floor. The guide narrates the first portion of the tour and then turns off the mic for the last 30 min. If you are inside, I recommend going outside during the narration. It's easier to see and hear.

    What are the vegetarian options on the lunch cruise?

    Is the moonlight cruise a decent experience? I've been on a similar "moonlight cruise" in Pittsburgh but instead of romantic and enjoyable it was loud, overloaded with drunks, and sweaty.

    I don't think they have a "moonlight cruise" but they do have a sunset cruise that is very nice

    On the sunset cruise can you order food?

    I think it's always buffet style.

    Where is the best place to sit? Upper or lower desk?

It was about $45 per person which might sound a little steep but they take you to 16 stops all over the city and you can get on and off as many times as you like (just show your ticket!) They run about every 15-20 minutes and if you stay on for the entire ride, it's about a 90 min tour. Joey was our first guide and he was so awesome that we decided to stay on 2/3 of the way through (we only got off for a "pit stop".) He was hilarious and had dad jokes for days. We really enjoyed him. They also gave us some good info...if you're interested in the squares, sit on the left, churches on the right. Every seat near the window was excellent for taking photos. I'm glad I brought an external battery, I was taking so many pictures! There is no AC but they did give us fans! And there are a lot of good coupons included in their handouts. AND a really good map of Savannah. A lot of good info. I highly recommend!

They incorporated material from guests on the bus and peppered laughs throughout the tour. It was irreverent, a little raunchy in just the right way to make you blush. One of the highlights include Danny existing the bus and taking the show to the street with innocent bystanders becoming part of the show, all while narrated inside by Danni. We covered several blocks with Danny running through the streets and squares while we laughed in the air conditioned trolly.

Our guides, Danny and Dannii, were bursting with high energy and delivered non-stop humor throughout the entire experience. They skillfully wove in fascinating historical facts about Savannah while keeping us laughing the whole way around the city. A quick heads-up: the humor does get a little risqué at times, so it's definitely not for the faint of heart! The highlight (or should I say lowlight for my husband's dignity) was when he received an unforgettable "lap dance"--or more accurately, a face dance. I've never seen his face turn quite that shade of red or heard him laugh so hard. It was priceless. If you're looking for a fun, lighthearted break from the everyday routine with a good dose of levity, we highly recommend this tour. It's a hilarious way to see and learn about Savannah!

We were visiting from Florida, so we knew it would be hot, but as it was a very shaded route with plenty of stops it was not an issue. As Dan advices on the website, pack water, and sunscreen. The walk itself is very dog friendly and at a leisurely pace suited to all levels of fitness. Finding dog friendly activities is always high on our list, and plus the wealth of knowledge and passion Dan has it was a no brainer! Due to the heat, some other guests had to reschedule their time, so we were lucky enough to have a private tour, which probably would be worth an additional star on its own! Dan as a host was witty, engaging and brought Savannah to life. We have already recommended Savannah Dan to multiple people and will continue to moving forward.
