Welcome to the Belle of Louisville
From Louisville, KY
The Belle of Louisville has been cruising along since 1914. She looks good for her age, doesn’t she? A National Historic Landmark, the Belle is the only remaining authentic operating Mississippi River-style steamboat from the great American packet boat era. A cruise on the Belle is a chance to explore and enjoy a living, operating museum. The Belle boasts a length of 198 feet and a width of 45 feet with a 5-foot draft, 3 decks are available to passengers: one fully enclosed climate-controlled deck with seating, one open air deck with both covered/uncovered outdoor seating, and the enclosed Main Deck where passengers can tour the boiler and engine rooms of this 110-year-old vessel.
