Our experience was mediocre at best. We booked the General Jackson, but ended up on the Music City Queen. The table settings were very nice when we walked in, but the food was also mediocre and at around $100 per person you would expect more. For that price one would expect a glass of wine or cocktail to be included... more

My boyfriend and I went on the General Jackson this evening and thought it was a hoot. We have lived in Nashville for about 4 years and have done many of the tourist attractions, but never this one. It was a hoot. We did not have dinner or the show, so I can't comment on either of those except to... more

I was hesitant to book the General Jackson because of the price and wasn't sure if it was going to be cheesy. :-) We're not into dinner shows so we chose the summer outer deck/buffet "party cruise". We're in our late twenties so we still like to party a little bit. We had a great time. It was a much... more

We were in Nashville the first weekend in June and before leaving UK, booked an outer deck lunchtime buffet cruise aboard the General Jackson. It was easy to reserve our tickets over the internet with Ticketmaster and then collect them on arrival at the box office, no problems at all. We thought at first that there was going to be... more

We chose the package sans-meal or show, just basically a three hour boat ride. I was dubious, but it turned out to be an incredible time. A gorgrous, slow ride down the river as late afternoon turns into dusk, then dark. Spectacular views of downtown, and plenty of picture taking opportunity. Nice, chatty bartenders (one gal who was planning a... more

we were in nashville over easter weekend april 6-8, and while we were there we decided to go and take a lunch time cruise aboard the general jackson showboat. the meal that we had was served buffet style, I'm not a big buffet fan but the food was better than you normally get on a buffet, we had this melt... more

We did the 11:30 a.m. cruise with the buffet and entertainment by Tim Watson. The show was absolutely wonderful and so entertaining. I smiled and/or laughed from beginning to end. This is definitely a must if you come to Nashville. Hint: If you purchase tickets over the Internet, when you arrive, make sure you go to the box/ticket office to... more

My husband and I enjoyed a dinner cruise on the General Jackson - 1/27/07- for my birthday. We had a bit of trouble beforehand with our tickets. I ordered tickets from Ticketmaster somewhat reluctantly, because I've had problems with Ticketmaster in the past. Sure enough, I get a call from them a week before the cruise telling me they could... more

Well...we went on the riverboat as part of a package. Check this out-the center tables in the dining hall were special "captains" tables, which cost more. They received their appetizers and salads..etc. very promptly. Thats fine...they paid more. OUR regular table received the goodies 40 min after sitting down! Good Lord! Right before we received the food, our waiter told... more
