The Columbia Queen is a magnificent vessel that was operated successfully for two years, from 2000-2001. We are now pleased to re-introduce this vessel to the Columbia, Snake, and Willamette Rivers, and at the same time we wish to share some of the glowing reports from its past passengers-impressions left behind by the wonderful cruise experience and fond memories created.

This was our 19th cruise, and, in our opinion, was one of the best we’ve ever had. The cabin was spacious, with plenty of closet space and a large bathroom, and was immaculate, thanks to our room steward. The food and service were excellent, and the crew made our cruise special from day one. And we have never been on a cruise that was so well planned and on time…The entertainment was so much fun and in keeping with the theme of the Pacific Northwest.

If you want to know about the Lewis & Clark Expedition and the Oregon Trail, and have fun learning about it, this is a trip we highly recommend. It’s money well-spent!

Everyone contributed to a relaxed, wonderful vacation. The deck hands that helped us on & off the boat were wonderful & truly appreciated.

I felt especially pampered on this trip. It was one of the best cruises I have taken, and the crew was one of the most outstanding I’ve met.
