A wonderful spiritual experience and the food was also delicious. We’ll do it again at every visit to Savannah.
Great show. I plan to go again with friends.
The food was unbelievably good, the staff was really nice, the ride was smooth and scenic. The music was off the charts great.
People with a physical disability may need to bring their own walking support. It was difficult for a person in our group to manage the ramps.
Our group of 17 absolutely enjoyed the dinner cruise. The music host was wonderful and there were several back up singers that sung and it was a blessing to hear. The food was good and what you’d expect from buffet. Our menu was southern fried chicken, green beans, macaroni, collard greens ( they were too spicy, but good) shrimp ands grits, bbq and desserts. Cruise passengers were allowed to sing along on mic and that part was fun. The birthday, anniversaries were celebrated and a great time was had. The music selections were engaging. We didn’t want it to be over.
These are real people giving God the Glory, Honor,and the Praise.Enjoying a physical meal and a spiritual meal at the same time. Relieving what you need from God through praise and worship. 20 years ago I came and was blessed. Customer Service was absolutely amazing..They took care of us on the first deck.The presence of God was felt this evening.
Fantastic! I wanted to hear gospel music. God did not disappoint. (He never does.) Listening to the choir was so much fun and they could really sing. The dinner was good too. The servers did a wonderful job making sure that everyone had enough food and beverage. $45 for the individual pictures was a bit pricey, but many seemed to happily purchase them. Not sure what entertainment occured on the 2 or 3 floors above. Again, I'm so glad to have chosen this adventure. Thanks! 🥳 Oh, at the last minute I was told about a FREE "Uber"-like company that takes people from point A to point B. It's an APP called downtowner. "Downtowner" is written on the cars. The gov't pays the driver. I was so blessed by the free and peaceful ride to the Riverboat that I gladly gave my driver a reasonable tip.
The show was full of energy and sounded wonderful! Great views down the river. Everyone, including the kids loved it. Highly recommend it.
Awesome time! Felt God’s presence on the boat! Singing was great and the joy was infectious! Bonus was great food!
The gospel singers were amazing. The views from the boat ride were great. Our server was not attentive at all and rarely came to check on us. We saw the other tables had buttermilk biscuits, but we never got any so we had to flag him down and ask him and then he said he’d go get us some. We couldn’t get him to come back to give us refills on our drinks and at the end of the experience he was standing back by the bar the entire time and I had to go back and find him just to cash out and pay so that we could leave. Also saw him outside on the deck taking photos of the sunset instead of attending to the customers. Dirty dishes stayed on the table long after we were done eating. The food was very good except the mashed potatoes were super watery almost like a soup. It was extremely cold inside and us and other tables near us said they were freezing and could not wait to get off the boat.
