Name: Riverfront Canal Cruises
Address: 139 Virginia Street, Richmond, VA, 23219

The 40-minute, historically narrated tours of the James River and Kanawha Canal operate throughout the season, seven days a week from May through October, and with varying hours in April and November. The boat tours travel along downtown Richmond's Canal Walk and review centuries of Richmond’s history, from Powhatan’s Chiefdom to the first commercially successful electric streetcar in the world, all while traveling in authentically styled boats. Tours depart on the hour from the canal’s Turning Basin at 139 Virginia Street, in Downtown Richmond. Boats can accommodate up to 25 passengers and are handicap accessible. Tickets are sold on a first come, first served basis at the Turning Basin’s ticket kiosk and online 18 hours in advance by visiting RiverfrontCanalCruises.com. Canal Cruise private charters are also available as one- or two-hour private boat tours that are a favorite for reunions, birthdays, engagements, corporate retreats, churches, clubs, and so many more group outings. Private charters may be scheduled for any day and time during the season but must be reserved a minimum of two weeks in advance at RiverfrontCanalCruises.com.
