BB Riverboats is one of Cincinnati's top attractions and has served the Greater Cincinnati area for over 4 decades. We specialize in lunch, sightseeing, and dinner cruises on the beautiful Ohio River. Both of our authentic riverboats are available for private charter and each boat has smaller private rooms to accommodate groups of all sizes.

Don’t forget: catch BB every third inning on Redzilla!

Xavier University Sister Rose Ann is always up for a side quest ⚾️⚔️

Not only did the Xavier legend serve as the Captain of the Game on the field pregame at Xavier Night at the Reds, but she also got the opportunity to ride along with Redzilla during the game.

🔍🚢 The Great Steamboat Race is back… but not everyone may make it to the finish line.

Our Murder Mystery Cruise returns with a 1927 whodunit on the Ohio River—and the May 29 cruise is officially sold out. With only six dates available all year, these cruises are expected to sell out quickly.

Eat, drink, question suspects, and see if you can crack the case before the night is over… 🕵️‍♀️🕰️ If you missed this one, keep an eye out for future dates. 👀
