Queen City Riverboats

News from the River

The Paddlewheel Post

Stories from the deck of the Spirit of Cincinnati: river life, event recaps, cruise guides, and a little Queen City history along the way.

The First Edition Is on Its Way

We're getting the presses warmed up. Soon you'll find stories from the river right here, written by the folks who work it every season.

  • River stories

    Life aboard the Spirit of Cincinnati, from the pilothouse to the galley.

  • Event recaps

    Fireworks nights, themed cruises, and the sailings people keep talking about.

  • Cruise guides

    What to wear, when to book, and how to get the most out of a night on the Ohio.

  • Riverfront history

    The steamboats, bridges, and landings that made Cincinnati the Queen City.

Until then, the best stories are still the ones you make on board.
