You Haven’t Lived Until You’ve Experienced This One Incredible Riverboat Ride In North Dakota

The Missouri River is one of the largest and most important rivers going through North Dakota. The history surrounding it is extensive to say the least. The river brought many of the state’s cities to life, including the capital city Bismarck. The river is naturally beautiful and deserves to be seen, and by far one of the best ways to see it is by riverboat.

This is definitely one for the ND bucket list! Check it out:

If you've ever passed by the Missouri River in Bismarck, North Dakota, you may have spotted this riverboat cruising the waters.

That historic riverboat is called the Lewis & Clark Riverboat and all through May to September it runs daily cruises.

Starting from the Riverboat Landing, anyone of all ages can enjoy daily public cruises as well as set up private events. You can even have a wedding on the boat!

The boat offers cruises from brunch to dinner, simple one hour rides, themed cruises, and more. All with beautiful views of the river right from your table or the decks.

Take in the sights of the natural river and parts of Bismarck and Mandan from the upper deck for the best panoramic views.

Other than the breathtaking sights, you will be able to learn about the history of the river, its surroundings, and the boat itself. Tickets for these cruises start as low as $10 and happen every single day.

Catch a ride on one of the sunset cruises to experience an unforgettable scene like this. It's definitely one of the best ways to see the river!
