Perfect Day for a Cruise I was on my own for the day and looking for something to do on a beautiful early autumn day and ended up taking a cruise on the Lake Queen, piloted by Captain Gus. It was a very pleasant and peaceful 90 minute cruise on Lake Taneycomo. Captain Gus regaled us with the unique history of the area and also told us the type of birds and animals we encountered along the way, which included an eagle and some white-tailed deer. Gus has a great sense of humor that was highlighted by sounding the vessel's loud horn as zip-liners were traversing just above us. We stopped briefly at Branson's Landing to watch the music and light show on the shore on our way back to the dock. I keep remembering facts that he shared with us along the way and am just amazed. I was very impressed with the cruise and would highly recommend it.

The ONLY place in Branson to accept the Drag Queens that visited Branson! After several theaters turned them away, and many people who lived in Branson called the police, you’re accepted them with open arms! Thank you!!

Loved this Took a two hour river cruise with dinner tonight on the Landing Princess. Enjoyed everything about it... good dinner, excellent service, beautiful scenery. It was, however, very confusing when we booked through Groupon. We weren't positive our dinner was included or if this cruise provided indoor accommodations in the event of inclement weather (turns out that our concerns were unwarranted). I would do this again.

The lunch cruise was a wonderful relaxing time. The Captain and crew were so friendly and gave lots of history about the area. It is a great way to see the lake and enjoy a comfortable ride!!

Our captain was amazing. Lots of information while also giving us time to enjoy the cruise peacefully. Great break in the afternoon !

Great dinner and so relaxing on the water

The boat ride down the river was very enjoyable, and the Captain was entertaining and knowledgeable. Definitely worth doing.

My wife and I took the lunch cruise. With captain Gus at the wheel it was a very smooth ride. The lunch and drinks were fantastic. The vessel has a fine crew. There was even a great group of veterans and their wives on board which I had the honor of thanking them for their service to our country. We will definitely be taking another cruise in our future.

These folks have a ton of options for enjoying the lake!

Exceeded expectations I read mixed reviews of the daytime cruise on Lake Taneycomo but needed to flesh out an itinerary for my party. I didn't expect much but was pleasantly surprised. We cruised on a beautiful fall day. Our captain ("The Dancing Captain") was interested in her guests, well-informed, personable and capable. One of our party in particular is into bird-watching and the captain made sure folks spotted interesting species and nests. We also learned some history and spotted where rich and famous folk live. We did not do the lunch because the reviews I had read weren't that great, but as the sandwich plates passed us by I have to say they looked rather tasty. We were glad we did this cruise and felt we learned more about the Branson area. We felt we got our money's worth, and would recommend it to other travelers.

Lake Queen Sightseeing cruise with Capt Gus My wife and I took the Lake Queen Paddlewheel cruise around the lake. Captain Gus was in charge and he was informative and funny. Loves to talk to people when you are just cruising. Very interesting, relaxing, smooth boat ride, and things to see.
They do offer drinks at an additional charge. Tour is about 2 hours. Can accomodate around 75 people. Top deck is partially covered and has tables and chairs. The last thing you see from the boat before he docks are the Branson Landing fountains. Very nice to see as they shoot up and spray with music and fire. Really spectacular to see at night!. If you would like a nice relaxing informative smooth boat ride, this is it. You will really enjoy it.

summer trip Trip is about 1.5 hours on paddle boat. Family had a great time. Captain even allowed my kids to drive!! You can also eat for about $10. Very relaxing way to see the lake and also stops at the fountains at Branson Landing to experience the fountains. Well spent trip. AC on bottom floor. Nice canopy on top floor with tables and chairs. Enjoy!!
