This boat features three climate controlled dining rooms, three bars, and a top deck snack shop. The Savannah River Queen has two large dining areas perfect for large groups and an open air, covered third deck patio space. The third deck also features a VIP room capable of accommodating 36 people.For the past 25 years, the company has expanded, developed and established itself as an anchor among historic River Street’s icons.Street.
