River Queen Voyages

We live in Nashville and finally decided to take a trip on the Cumberland. We LOVED our kayaking journey with River Queen Voyages! It was easy to book through their website and they had openings the night before we went. They texted us day of to coordinate, and were very flexible with the event at Nissan Stadium that day. All the staff were so kind, informative, and helpful! We will definitely be doing this again.

I drove to Nashville from Canada and wanted to do something fun with my local friend for my birthday on September 6... kayaking on the Cumberland River was awesome! Thanks to Billy and Emily for their professionalism and great service, we loved it!

The whole experience was very good and fun. WEBSITE is deceiving - the seats on the hobie 4 person kayak DO NOT turn so you can be social. And, they do not drive you upstream like the individual kayaks. It was a great time, but website needs to be more accurate.

Emily, our guide, was great! Very friendly, very knowledgeable, and took a bunch of pictures of us. Everyone else on the team was also lovely, the trip was very organized, and the kayaks were great—moved through the water very easily even when half full of water from the pouring rainstorm we got caught in (which was very fun! Made it more of any adventure!). Highly recommend the scavenger hunt option for anyone who wants to check out the Cumberland at greater length. —Paige

Captain Annie & Elliott were fantastic on our pedal pontoon ride earlier this week! Super fun, helpful, and inclusive. Along with dj'ing some great tunes, they gave us a few fun facts along the river ride. We had originally tried to book a different time slot, but unfortunately, not enough people signed up for that one. They worked fast to get us on a different cruise the same day, so it all worked out great! I booked this for my cousin who was getting married, and they made her feel very special. She had a great time, so thank you again! 🥰 Two items to note for anyone looking to book with them (which you should!): *They provide the coolers and ice onboard in the center of the pedal seats, but it's BYOB. Dont forget to bring yourself a drink! *Make sure you take the opportunity to use the Bridge Building restroom prior to the cruise. There's only an emergency toilet onboard (no enclosed bathroom). It's completely unrelated, but i recommend walking across the pedestrian footbridge for some great views of downtown Nashville before or after your pedal pontoon cruise!
