Awesome Haunted Cruise!
I went here with my family for the Pittsburgh Haunted Cruise. The cruise was very fun. Our tour guide’s name was Ron Zombie. He was very scary. The myths about the Monongahela monster do still exist today. The stories about Haunted Pittsburgh were very well told. It is fun for all ages.
I am an avid fan of the Gateway Clipper Fleet, and now having the full experience (did a sightseeing cruise, a dinner cruise, and a lock and dam cruise), I can safely say that I redid this review so I can point everything out! Pros: - All the boats are unique in their own way. - Staff was very friendly. - The buffet style of the dinner cruise (when I went during COVID-19) was organized and didn't feel too crowded. They had plentiful food so if you want seconds or thirds... go right at it! - The food in the Sunset Dinner Cruise was amazing, the pork was a knock-out, and while I despise cooked carrots... the carrots with glaze and pecans were very good! Go for a dining cruise if you want good food in big quantities (they're not absolutely fancy but they're great for what they are). - The sightseeing cruise is an abbreviated version of the dinner cruise but you can still take in on the sights. I'd say they are much better at night. - COVID procedures are being met. - I love the horns honestly, the Princess has the best (most beautiful sounding) one. Cons: - The seats are a little uncomfortable for plus size on the outside decks - The smell is rather weird inside all the vessels. - The Majestic (their biggest ship) was hit by a barge so instead of either fixing it or scrapping it, they leave it to rot. - I wish they sell merchandise of their boats (like shirts, toys, etc.) Caution For Those With Sensory Issues: - Some captains do warn you about the horn, some don't, and the music is pretty loud. Overall, I'm a big fan! This place is what made me like river/steamboats, and I'll be coming for years to come. Definitely stop at Station Square before/after your cruise (and either eat at Joe's or Hard Rock if you are not at a dinner cruise).
In town for a conference which had a fascinating Bridge and Waterway tour today covering each of Pittsburgh's three rivers. Only city in the world which has more bridges is Venice, Italy. The Gateway Clipper ship had everything we needed.
I took my wife and daughter on the Clipper dinner cruise last night. It was an awesome experience. Beautiful sunset, food and drinks.
We took the one-hour sightseeing cruise and, even though I have lived in Pittsburgh my whole life, I learned something new. The Grant Building is considered a lighthouse because of the light on top of it. It was not intended to keep boats safe but rather planes. Our excellent guide, Andrew, told us a funny story about the construction of the Highmark Building. The architect had designed it so that the building itself was supposed to be as tall as the spire is now, but the City changed its mind and wouldn't let him build that high. So, he changed his plans and added the pointy spire as a message to the City. The tour started up the Monongahela toward Oakland a short way, then back down to the Point and up the Allegheny towards Heinz, then back to the Ohio. The weather was iffy, but it didn't actually rain until we had debarked. In addition to the narration on the boat, there is plenty of history to be learned from the timeline murals that line the tunnel down to the dock. This is a nice way to spend an hour and it's super-cheap if you're a veteran. With proof of service, vets ride free and can purchase up to 8 additional tickets for half-price. My husband and I both rode for $10.50. This special price is for the sightseeing cruise only, not for the Lock and Dam cruise or any of the dinner or specialty cruises.
No pun intended but they do run a tight ship. Easy ticketing and personable service, they were also conscious of the current pandemic so they insured passengers were safe with distancing, smaller crowds, and a mandatory temperature check. Masks were mandatory inside but optional on the deck. With the breeze, fresh air, and distancing, we were not concerned. Note, however, smoking is allowed on deck but not inside, but again, it is easy to avoid any smoke. Aaron, our guide, was informative and an hour was perfect. Plenty of places to eat afterwards and parking is simple.

Gateway Clipper Cruises – A Tour Perfect for Visitors

The Gateway Clipper is an iconic Pittsburgh attraction. No matter the time of day, odds are good you can look to the rivers near downtown Pittsburgh and see these iconic blue, gold, and red riverboats ferrying passengers or giving a water-level city tour.
As Pittsburgh residents, we've seen these boats for many years but oddly enough had never taken one. Naturally, since founding this site we wanted to change that and finally made the trip down to Station Square to take a sightseeing cruise at the end of peak season.
But in being honest, I have to say that there are two very different experiences you can have on the Gateway Clipper fleet- one as a resident and one as a visitor. Depending on what category you fall into, this may change your approach to this tour significantly.
The Gateway Clipper Fleet – For Visitors
For visitors to Pittsburgh, a trip on the Gateway Clipper is one of the top attractions you can do in the city. This 60-minute tour traverses the three rivers and is narrated to highlight the city's unique history, beautiful architecture, and other facts you may not hear anywhere else (excluding this blog, of course).
During each tour the guides ask who is a visitor and who is a local, and we were some of the only residents who were out for the day- something the guide suggested was fairly common.
The tour plays out much like you'd expect a 60-minute boat cruise to do. You do a quick loop around the rivers, learn a few facts about the city (some of which were sadly, incorrect), receive a few bad restaurant recommendations, and go on about your day. A typical tourist boat cruise , and in Pittsburgh one that has a fairly incredible backdrop to enjoy.
If we were from out of town and took the trip, we would have enjoyed it immensely; however, in being locals to Pittsburgh and making it our mission to go explore as much as possible, we were a bit let down as the tour fell short of what we think is its full potential.
Gateway Clipper Cruises – For Residents
The reason for our lackluster response to the hour-long sightseeing cruise on the Gateway Clipper stems from the fact that it offer residents little to no new experiences or knowledge other than enjoying the view of the city from the water.
At some point, listening to the narrator talk is not so much a treat, but a distraction from why you're taking the tour in the first place (which for us was to simply experience the views).
This disconnect is where the problem of the Gateway Clipper comes into play. If you sign up for their standard sightseeing cruise, you're going to have a fairly typical sightseeing experience. As a visitor, 60 minutes out on the water is a pretty great tourist activity. But as a local who knows the waterways around Pittsburgh inside and out, we simply wanted more.
That being said, those who live in the city may want to take a trip out on the longer dinner cruises instead (many at sunset, for an added bonus) to appreciate the city we all know and love the way it should be enjoyed- for a very long time .
Looks like another Gateway Clipper cruise is in our future to try it out!
The Gateway Clipper fleet is docked at 350 W Station Square Drive right next to the Sheraton Station Square hotel . Cruises are offered multiple times per day; however, starting in late October the frequency of departures decreases for the winter.

For frequently asked questions about the Gateway Clipper, check out the following.

The Gateway Clipper is a historic riverboat cruise on Pittsburgh's three rivers. A general sightseeing tour lasts approximately one hour.
