Amazesballls - I have never been on a boat before. But ginger our host for the evening made it very relaxing. She offered me some things to help settle my stomach. Making it easier for me to enjoy my dinner with love of life. Who also really enjoyed it. The tour itself was also amazing the views of all the river was amazing.

While we thoroughly... - While we thoroughly enjoyed the views, music, and meal, we were seated near a group of incredibly loud and foul mouthed women which really detracted from the experience. I also feel the tab could be broken into 2 components: cruise and dinner. I only felt that I needed to leave a tip for the meal portion but wasn’t sure what it cost. Just a thought!
