Full description

This dinner cruise takes guests on a journey up the Hillsborough River, passing under Tampa’s historic low bridges with just inches to spare, while the city’s skyline and waterfront landmarks create a stunning backdrop. Inside the vessel’s open exhibition kitchen—the first of its kind on an American river cruiser—the Executive Chef prepares a seasonal three-course dinner designed to impress. From the first bite to the last, every course is crafted to complement the experience of dining on the water.
As the Bow & Stern Bar mixes craft cocktails and the captain steers through the heart of Tampa, guests can relax in the comfort of indoor seating and watch the city drift by. On select Sunday evenings, the cruise is timed with the sunset, creating an even more memorable setting as the sky glows over the river. Whether celebrating a special occasion or simply enjoying an elevated night out, this dinner cruise combines exceptional cuisine, polished service, and Tampa’s most iconic sights into one seamless experience.

Returns, exchanges and cancellation

Unused Experience Vouchers can be returned within 15 days for a full refund to the original purchaser, no questions asked.

If you have any unused Experience Vouchers, you can exchange them for anything else in our marketplace, no matter when. If you choose an experience that's more expensive, you'll need to pay the difference, but if you choose one that costs less, you'll receive a credit towards your next booking.

No refunds are allowed once the experience is booked, but you can reschedule up to 24 hours before your experience, for a date within a year of the original booking. To reschedule, contact the experience provider directly. No-shows or rescheduling less than 24 hours in advance means losing the value of your experience.
