How long is the cruise?
        Public cruises last 1 to 1 1/2 hours depending on route taken. 

Why do I need a reservation?
        Public cruises fill up quickly. By completing a reservation online or by phone, you know your spot is saved. Reservations are required for lunch or dinner cruises and inform the amount of food prepared. 

Can I ride the riverboat if I didn't make a reservation?
        Maybe. You will need to check availability by stopping in the ticket office (1700 River Road N, Bismarck, ND).    
Can I ride a lunch or dinner cruise without purchasing a meal?
        Yes. You are not required to purchase a meal to ride the riverboat.

Why isn't there a cruise every day?
        Public cruises are scheduled around private chartered events. These events vary daily. Since it is updated on the fly, please feel free to check in with available public cruises here.

What happens if there is bad weather?
        Our guest's safety is most important. In the event of high winds or extreme weather, the U.S. Coast Guard-trained master of vessel will determine whether it is safe enough for the cruise to commence. For the safety of all passengers, private charters and public cruises may be rescheduled or cancelled, in the event of reschedule or cancellation a voucher will be offered.

Can I bring food or drink on the riverboat?
        No personal outside food or drinks are allowed. Snacks and beverages are available for purchase on all cruises. A cash bar is available for private and public cruises.

When should I show up?
        The boat will start loading approximately 20 minutes prior to departure. The top deck fills fast so come early.

Can I smoke on the boat?
        No. The riverboat is a smoke-free environment.

Is the boat handicap accessible?
        Yes, the main deck is handicap accessible.
