Starting this weekend, there will be more options for visitors to enjoy the Riverboats at the Gateway Arch.

The daily, one-hour riverboat cruises reopened to the public in early June, following weeks of closure due to the COVID-19 pandemic. In addition to the daily cruises, the weekly blues and dinner cruises, as well as brunch cruises have returned.

“We remain committed to the health and safety of our visitors and staff as we carefully reintroduce some of our most popular cruises,” said Robert Hopkins, Riverboats at the Gateway Arch director of operations. “We are excited to continue to welcome visitors back to the St. Louis Riverfront to experience the magic of the Mississippi River.”
