Great music

There is a viewing window for the engine and paddle wheel on the lower level. The music was wonderful. Be prepared to suggest a song for the musicians to play.

Response from ViatorJuly 25, 2026

We are so glad you enjoyed the live music and the views of the engine room. Thank you for your feedback, and we hope to welcome you back on board again soon.
