Jungle Queen Riverboat Dinner Cruise

Fort Lauderdale, United States of America

Take an old fashioned riverboat cruise on the New River in Fort Lauderdale, where you'll be treated to an all-you-can-eat shrimp and barbecue dinner followed by a hilarious variety review stage show.

The Jungle Queen Riverboat Cruise travels through the tranquil waterways of the New River giving you a chance to view the ever-changing scenery, including plush waterfront homes and downtown Fort Lauderdale.

Then, with a friendly "All Ashore" by the captain, you will be directed to the dining room where a delicious all-you-can-eat dinner of BBQ ribs, chicken, and shrimp with all the trimmings will be waiting for you.

Be prepared for some after dinner laughs as the all new Hilarious Variety Revue, acclaimed by press and public alike, takes center stage, and then enjoy a moonlit return ride.

For the price; for the very entertaining boat trip,_br/_ for the really good food, and for the stage shows after dinner, IT WAS A GREAT EXPERIENCE!!

Review by: SUSAN H	February 2012
It was so cold that the animals were all brought in on the little Island where we were fed. It was open air so we were all freezing and while the show was okay, I think we were too cold to clap. Food was so so and because it was so cold, the plastic sheets that protect passengers from wind and rain were pulled down but frankly, they were not clean and it was hard to see the sights that were pointed out. The captain was nice and funny and the people who worked on the dinner were very nice but if we are supposed to see the homes of the stars and the beauty of the trip is to see the homes, then probably the last boat should leave at 4 and not at 6 when it gets too dark to enjoy the atmospherics. The captain must have said a few times that it was too dark to see some of the sights. Then why point them out? Not very satisfied at all. I would ask for my money back, but I know this is not possible. It is probably a good time during the daylight hours.

Very good food. However, it was a cold evening and they left the doors open and we had to wear our jackets and were still cold.

What a wonderful evening of entertainment! I had booked this dinner cruise six months before the event and was unsure if it would occur without problems. We had no problems with checking in, had excellent seats on the boat, and had a truly enjoyable experience to celebrate my 25th wedding anniversary. Our captain was knowledgeable, funny, and engaging. The tour was interesting, and the food was great. The variety show was entertaining, and the return trip was enjoyable. Overall, we had a 5-star experience. Thank you Jungle Queen and Viator.

Review by: Beverly T	October 2011
This was a wonderful tour. I really enjoyed seeing all the million dollar homes and million dollar yachts. The meal on the island was really good. The ribs were tender and mouth watering.. The steak fries, coleslaw and baked beans were all very good, The variety show was also very good. Especially the ventriloquist. All in all a great tour.

Review by: Kiri105	October 2011
A 3 hour cruise along Fort Lauderdales waterways , complemented by humourous commentry and an All You Can Eat BBQ(ribs are excellent) midway through the trip, followed by a magician/comedian show before the return leg of tour. Worth doing .

Review by: Dianne F	October 2011

Review by: ROXANNE B	February 2011
Loved the canal ride. The dinner was excellent and the entertainment was fun. Well worth the $40.00!!! Do not hesitant to do this.

Review by: Anne M	January 2011
We had a blast! The cruise 'director' was great, adding personal commentary and info along the way. Food was fabulous and the entertainment was top notch-hysterical! The only thing you folks couldn't control was the weather: very windy and then the rain came. But everyone enjoyed themselves anyway. Great fun!

Review by: Ellen D	November 2010
Great tour with a fascinating commentary. Really loved the ribs and baked beans. Magician/comedian was very enjoyable. I will definitely recommend this tour to anyone vacationing in Fort Lauderdale. Because of the boat show there was confusion regarding parking & getting to the boat. I also wish you took American Express.

Review by: Lorraine L	September 2010
Pre paid and was nt allowed acess to the boat. the woman at the counter said there were no reservations had me hanging into the window of the booth talking to another agent who also said no tickets even though i had paper work with me from the site. Be careful purchasing online and good luck we had none!

Review by: Sue N, United States of America	June 2010
Trip was very organized interesting and educational. We all enjoyed seeing homes along the river and learning about certain things we would pass. Dinner was very good and there was plenty to eat. This was also organized. Show afterwards was entertaining. Nice outing for a family. Would recommend it highly if visiting in the area.

We had a great trip and is looking forward doing it again soon, it was fun right fron the start.

Review by: Shaun W	October 2009
A great way to spend an evening. Lovely river cruise with brilliant views, All you can eat hot dinner & drinks & a magic show. The only problem we had was we booked about a month in advance in the UK, then confirmed 1 week before but when we arrived the trip for that day was cancelled so we had to go 2 days later. If we went back with friends we would do it again.

Review by: Ana J, United States of America	April 2009
Absolutely fantastic! Breathtaking views and the narrator makes the trip even better. At the dinner, the barbeque ribs were some of the best I have eaten. It was very relaxing a afternoon to remember.

Review by: Donald H, United States of America	April 2009
The cruise was an excellent evening excursion, traveling the water viewing beautiful homes, yachts, shopping and restaurant areas and people on land were waving while we were passing by on the riverboat. The staff on the riverboat and at the island were very friendly and fun. The food was so good and so plentiful. When they say all you can eat, it is true. Especially the ribs, they just fell off the bone. We would definitely suggest doing this dinner cruise.

Review by: Raymond N	March 2009
Loved the boat trip and the dinner was really good value. The show spoiled it all for our party though. We met some really nice people and the staff were excellent. Great value for money and worth doing for the boat trip alone.

Review by: Naomi D	February 2009
It was something nice and different to do. The food was great, the scenery was nice.

Review by: Susan E, United States of America	January 2009
Wow! What a great time! Absolutely fantastic value for the money. The show is a little hokey, but I didn't even know there was a show, so it was all bonus! Great narrator in the boat, great fun, good for kids - and I don't have any, but the ones on the ship were having fun and not crying or even bored! Wonderful, wonderful time!

Review by: Jessica F, United States of America	May 2008
We had such a great evening on the dinner cruise. The cruise along the river was much more than expected, and the staff at the island were awesome. I highly recommend this dinner cruise to anyone looking for something unique to do while visiting Ft. Lauderdale.
