Cruise the Mississippi River on a paddleboat |
800 North First St St. Louis, MO 63102 United States +1 314 621 4040 |
The Mississippi River has long beckoned adventurers to ride its mighty currents. Here you can board a paddle wheeler, the Tom Sawyer or the Becky Thatcher and take a step back in time to the era of Mark Twain. The slow-moving vessels offer perfect vantage points for sightseeing, while the riverboat captain narrates the tour and points out attractions and historic sights as they steam past. Take the less expensive daytime cruise ($9.00 for adults, $4.00 for children) or spend a little more for the dinner cruise or the helicopter tours. Review © 2007, Wcities |
