Jazz Boat: Popular LIVE JAZZ cruise
Description
Imagine a small jazz club. The musicians are playing just a few metres away, you’re sitting at your table, perhaps having dinner or a glass of wine. Only instead of city streets outside the window, Prague is slowly drifting by. That’s more or less what an evening on the Jazz Boat feels like. Over the course of two and a half hours, you’ll hear three live jazz sets. In between, there’s time to talk, enjoy your food, or simply look out at the city and the river. You don’t need to know anything about jazz, and there’s nothing much to plan. Just come aboard, take your seat, and let the evening flow with the boat.

Itinerary
Jazz Boat started with a simple idea – to bring live jazz together with a place where people can feel comfortable and be truly close to the music. There’s no rush to the evening. The boat slowly cruises along the Vltava, the band plays three sets, and in between there’s time for dinner, a glass of wine or a conversation. Sometimes it’s the music that draws you in, sometimes the view from the window. And sometimes you simply sit back and enjoy not having to think about anything for a couple of hours. Every evening is a little different. Different musicians, different people, a different mood. And that’s exactly what we like about the Jazz Boat.

It was little confused to find the terminal 18 but everything was perfect except it. They have 3 Jazz session and their playing was awesome.
I booked this for my parents and they absolutely loved it. Had seats right next to the band. Great music, great food and they loved the excursion
Music was great, staff and food were good, and trip up and down the Vltava River was beautiful. We chose to do this tour our last night and are glad we did.
We love Jazz and we love to eat so what could be nicer than eating, drinking, and listening to Jazz on a boat with wonderful views? The views were incredible from the boat at night and the food was amazingly good. There is no choice in what they offer, a nice salmon with a creamy dill sauce and Caprese salad. We added an optional Carpaccio appetizer and a bottle of Chardonnay. The staff was friendly and efficient. After we finished eating we still had 45 minutes to continue listening to the music. I would highly recommend this trip to anyone.
Great way to spend a beautiful evening. I was seated alongside a nice couple from Ireland. We had front row seats to a great three-piece band. The food was great- I had the pork, and it was juicy and perfectly prepared. The appetizer was a caprese salad. The staff was very helpful and accommodating. Drinks were pretty reasonably priced. I had 3 glasses of wine and a bottle of water for about $20. Only thing I would recommend is for there to be some kind of announcement when passing sights- we were inside, so we didn’t know when any landmarks were being passed. Also, when using maps- search for Terminal 18 on the dock. The pin will take you to somewhere on the street, but it’s incorrect. Other than that, well worth the money.
Super Cool! What a fantastic way to see the best views of Prague while listening to an amazing jazz trio! As a bonus, the food was very high quality and service was friendly and attentive. If you like live music, I would highly recommend this excursion! Timing of courses and sets was just right, giving us enough time in between to leave our table and head up to the top deck for some great pictures. We would 100% do this one again on a return trip to Prague!
The experience was nice but the music is way too loud for the small boat. We thought the jazz would be low enough that we could have a conversation with others at our table and it was nearly impossible. The boat is outdated and could use some updating. Food was delicious but portions were small.
Thank you for your review. We'd just like to clarify a few points. Jazz Boat is a live concert experience, not background music during dinner. The music is intentionally the main part of the evening, and thousands of guests visit us specifically to enjoy an authentic live jazz performance. While conversation is certainly possible between sets, we don't advertise the cruise as a quiet dining experience. Regarding the food, our menu and portion sizes are clearly presented before booking, and most guests find them satisfying. We're sorry the evening didn't match your expectations, but it sounds like they were different from the experience we offer.
Nice experience! Food very delicious, staff very friendly, they accommodate requests. Dreamy evening scenery of the city with all its lights from the boat. Plus great live jazz music. The band was great. All in all, a perfect evening, highly recommended.
The music was wonderful and the food was good. It was a very pleasant experience. It was small and cozy.
We were very impressed with this tour and would recommend it to everyone. The boat is lovely. It’s nice and intimate with indoor and outdoor options. It’s not too crowded and feels like just the right size. The service is terrific, and the food was delicious. The drinks were great and very reasonably priced. The tour on the river was beautiful. And the cherry on top is the jazz band. Ours was world class and seeing them in such an intimate environment was wonderful. This one is totally worth it. Do it.
