The sunset cruise was beautiful and peaceful! Our captain, Jesse, was accommodating and fun as well! Definitely recommend it for anyone here!

This was hands down our favorite part of the entire Nashville bachelorette trip. Jesse was the best captain, the setup was excellent, and our trip around the lake was phenomenal! Highly recommended!

Kyle was our captain and he was so friendly and fun to talk to. He even let us stop to put our feet in. 10/10 would recommend. This was the perfect experience to add to our trip.

Our boat driver, Kyle, was the best! They conveniently provided a cooler with ice and we even got free drink koozies and flower leis that made the experience so special! We will definitely be coming back for more good times !

Reviews From Our Guests

It’s a great way to get off Broadway and still have some good ‘ole Nashville fun!!! Seriously so much fun! Beautiful views, awesome crew, clean bathroom and great music.

My bridesmaids surprised me with the boat cruise for my Nashbach! It was the best time ever! Highly recommend this event for any group looking to spend an evening partying on the river!

Went on the pontoon saloon for my bachelorette party. We had a blast!! There were multiple parties with us and we all danced together. At one point we were playing limbo with a broomstick. I do recommend getting there earlier to secure a good spot on the boat. Plus, having the bathroom on board made life so much easier.

We had a team meeting (12 people) in Nashville and took an evening cruise on the pontoon saloon. It was the perfect choice for a group activity as they had dinner and beer as we cruised the Cumberland River. Awesome views of the Nashville skyline!! Andrew was great!

Pontoon Saloon was a great experience! The owner and staff are super cool, the boat was clean and roomy! It was a beautiful day on the Cumberland River even in November! We had a big group, so did the private tour! Highly recommend!
