Learn Our Story
In 1986, a group of dreamers in Northern Kentucky, inspired by the timeless beauty of the Ohio River, embarked on a journey to create something extraordinary. Their vision was simple but profound: to provide unique and memorable experiences for those who wanted to explore the river's majesty. Thus, Queen City Riverboats was born.
The early days were challenging. Marketing in a pre-digital era required grassroots efforts—flyers on local bulletin boards, word of mouth, and partnerships with nearby businesses. However, the team's commitment to excellence and personal touch soon earned them a reputation as the go-to company for private riverboat charters.
Today, Queen City Riverboats continues to thrive under the leadership of Manhattan Development Group. Although we embrace modern technology and amenities, we remain committed to the same principles that launched our journey in 1986: creating unforgettable experiences on the Ohio River.
From humble beginnings to now, Queen City Riverboats is a testament to the power of vision, hard work, and a deep love for the river. For us, the Ohio River isn’t just water—it’s a source of connection, celebration, and endless memories.
