The river by night is is a magical place and there’s no better way to enjoy it than with this infamous dinner cruise. The Showboat Cruise is not suitable for children.

There is a welcoming glass of fizz to get you in the mood when you arrive. Then listen to hit show songs performed live while you enjoy a delicious four course meal with our complimentary wine.
