"This was an amazing event to go to"
This was an amazing event to go to. The food was delicious and the show was absolutely out of this world. I definitely suggest sitting through the entire show before roaming the boat since you have plenty of time after the show's done. The singers are very polite and let you take pictures with them at the end and then they have an amazing second show up on the top of the boat afterwards that is comical and fun. Definitely recommend doing this.

"The show was fabulous."
The show was fabulous. The service was amazing. And the food was ok. Not sure what i was expecting, but i didn't’t leave hungry. It was a bit crowded in the dining room so my advice is to go to the restroom and get your drinks before you get seated. The servers will get your drinks for you if you’d like. The stage was small but the cast used it well. Not boring at all.
Tip: Enjoy!!!

"Would recommend this experience to all and hope that it will become your family tradition."
The general jackson cruise at christmas has been a family tradition for the last several years. We are hoping to be there again this year. I love to see the glow on my daughter's face when we board the boat. We have never left the boat without the christmas love and full bellies from the show. The food is always wonderful and my two grandsons are always ready to eat. Would recommend this experience to all and hope that it will become your family tradition.

"This was the best by far."
This was the best by far. We were seated at table #2 which was right by the corner of the stage. We got to see the entire show without anyone being in front of us and it was great. The entertainment was great and the dinner was fantastic. This was a special trip for my nephew who has been in a wheel chair since birth. He is now 42 years old and this was his first visit to tennessee. I wanted to do something special for him while we were there since his parents gave him the trip as a christmas present. I could not have asked for a better time nor could he. It was a surprise up until 10 minutes before we pulled into the parking lot. He had no clue what we were doing. So from the mongeau and labare family, thank you for making that day special for him.

"This was a very fun evening."
This was a very fun evening. The food was very good and the servers for drinks, etc were also outstanding. Everyone got a table number when you get your tickets which works very well. The hour of entertainment was also outstanding. The alcohol drinks are more costly but not out of line for resort areas. We highly recommend this showboat for a fun evening of entertainment. One comment would be when food is ready dismissed a few tables at one time so the wait time in line is not so long. Also, provide a tray for someone who may be getting food for another person in a wheel chair so they don’t have to wait in the food line twice.

I loved the general jackson show boat tour! There were two seatings that day and we were second. So we got a drink on the top level and headed downstairs and enjoyed the cumberland river. We then had our meal at 1:30 and the show was great! Loved the music performance and the variety of songs they chose. Staff were helpful and friendly! I would recommend anyone to partake in this experience!

First, we were blessed with magnificent weather for out august 10th outing on the general jackson dinner cruise! We arrived early, since we were unsure of how the traffic would treat us. Gratefully, we were able to find a great parking place, for free, which seems to be almost unheard of in nashville. I picked up our tickets and we sat at a table outside the gate and enjoyed a nice breeze under the trees. After going through the gate we had our picture taken, which is a great souvenir. We mad our way on to the general and sat at a table on the rail and waited to get underway. After getting turned around and heading towards downtown, dinner commenced. Now here i will say a very small thing that could be improved. Calling for dinner said victorian guests and i didn't know that meant dinner guests. My wife and cousin straightened me out on this. Dinner was great and luckily, i didn't have an hour to eat, or i would have stuffed myself. I could have eaten a pound of the glazed carrots alone! After dinner we went out on the deck to enjoy even more great weather, and gazed on the river lights and bridges leading to downtown. I was able to get several good shots of the downtown lights and the lighted bridges. After the call to dessert and the show we went back in. The dessert tasted great and the show very entertaining. I applaud you on the talent you have been able to get for these shows. Special shoutout to brandon martin and douglas waterbury-tieman! All four of us agreed we would do another trip on the general jackson! I am thinking heavy coat and december would be awesome!

"Absolutely wonderful evening."
Absolutely wonderful evening. A first class musical production and delicious food. We sat a table with several groups of people from all over and had great conversations before the show and during the meal. I’m a vegetarian and there was a wonderful selection for me as well as my meat loving husband. The musicians were top notch and every minute was entertaining. We did not take the opportunity to see nashville from on deck but had great views through the windows and did not feel we missed out on anything (although next time we might head up for a bit). You will have a night to remember and i would 100 recommend this cruise to locals and visitors alike.

What a great dinner cruise ot was worth every penny the food was really good along with the drinks were surprisingly good. There were some specialty drinks that looked really good i stuck with my wine but i was tempted to try something different. The band that played while we were having drinks waiting to be seated for dinner was excellent, and the dinner shoe was fabulous. I highly recommend this cruise.. A fun time was had by all.

Service was excellent. Dinner was mediocre. Show was okay. Been on the branson belle several times. Belle would get a 9. General jackson gets a 5. Expect much more in the “home of country music” and the grand ol opry. Kind of sad. For the price there’s no way i would recommend this “attraction”.

They had us laughing and enjoying the evening from the get-go. Absolutely one of the best shows we've ever seen anywhere, and we've seen alot of shows! Unbelievably talented musicians and singers with an equally skilled sound crew! The energy of that show is off the chart! One thing that could improve the experience would be to allow passengers more time to enjoy the night views before the show starts. That part was a bit too rushed. Highly recommend you to add this ezperience to your bucket list!

To much dead time. After the dinner and show their is no more crew and guest relations. It seems the main and only objective is to get the guest fed. More entertainment, a tour guide of what the guest are seeing on the ride, dancing, a live dj. The guest seen to me very uninterested after meal. Maybe a magician hell i don't know something to peak the interest of the guest.

Only suggestion would be to somehow coordinate timing of show with timing of the good views of nashville from the boat? When show was over, seems like we had missed all the good stuff to see on deck. Also, please do not allow smoking on the boat. This isn't 1980 any more.

General jackson showboat was very nice. I have only one complaint. We were at table 15. There was several women in a group and we were seated with some of them at our table and was asked by them if we were at the right table and the leader of that group if we would move. We didnn't want to move because we would have had to lose our close stage seats so we didn't so we felt very out of place. I would suggest not doing that if there are other seats available. Very uncomfortable because we were not wanted.

We really enjoyed our lunch cruise on the general jackson. Living just outside the nashville area since june 2020, we wanted to experience all nashville has to offer. Loving to photograph the nashville skyline was a great incentive for me to take this cruise. The day was sunny, warm, & clear for november! The boat was so big and beautiful with multiple levels to enjoy the outdoors. Talking to guests from all over the us at the dining table was so much fun. Not to mention the food was very good as well as the service. The country music show after lunch was very good. There is so much talent in nashville and one of the vocalist was the niece of a couple at our lunch table from sc. I, jill, left the show a little early to go on deck and take some photos of the city when we reached the foot bridge at nissan stadium. I stayed on deck until we reached our destination back at opryland and just enjoyed the river and the big red paddle. I would highly recommend this cruise to add to your list while visiting nashville.
