Experiences
Seven ways to spend a night aboard Cincinnati's only charter yacht, from a 30-guest rehearsal dinner to a 100-guest wedding. Every one of them is private.
The Destiny does one thing: private charters on the Ohio River for up to 100 guests. Weddings and corporate events are most of what we sail, so they have their own pages with sample timelines, what's included, and how pricing works. Rehearsal dinners, private parties, moonlight cruises, Greek formals, and drinks-only party cruises round out the calendar. Pick the occasion that looks most like yours and we'll take it from there.
Looking for a ticketed public sailing instead of a private charter? Those sail through our sister brand, Queen City Riverboats, including the nights aboard The Destiny.

Pick the night
Every experience below is a private charter: the whole yacht, just your guests. Start with the occasion and we'll shape the cruise around it.
Tour the yacht

Choose the menu and bar
Chef-crafted buffet menus from the Ultimate Feast to the Cincy Stars Buffet, with bar packages from beer and wine to a full open bar.
Cast off
Board 30 minutes before departure, cruise for 3 hours past the skyline and the Roebling Bridge, and step back onto the dock with the night done.

What It Costs
Catered charters are quoted as one package: the yacht, the crew, your catering menu, and a bar package sized to your guest list. Guest count, menu, bar, day of the week, and season set the number; weeknights, Sundays, and shoulder-season dates leave the most room in the budget. Drinks-only party cruises are the budget-friendly exception.
Send us the date and a rough headcount and we'll build a written quote. The weddings, corporate events, and rehearsal dinners pages explain what moves the price for each.
