The Riverboats at the Gateway Arch—replica 19th-century paddle-wheel riverboats Becky Thatcher and Tom Sawyer—transport riders back in time to when steamboats ruled the mighty Mississippi and fueled the nation’s westward expansion, making St. Louis truly the Gateway to the West. This year is the 55th anniversary of the riverboats on the St. Louis Riverfront.
The Riverboats at the Gateway Arch offer daily St. Louis Riverfront Cruises; evening Skyline Dinner Cruises; specialty cruises such as Sunday Brunch Cruises, Blues Cruises, Oktoberfest Cruises, PJs and Pancakes with Santa Claus Cruises, and more; as well as private event charters.
