Seeing the Riverwalk on a dining cruise is a great way to have fun with friends and enjoy the sights. There are a couple of ways you can do it. Many people have a group that wants to go so they want to do a private/chartered dinner cruise. To do that you first contact a Riverwalk restaurant and then they assist you in chartering the barge and cater the event for you. A barge configured for dining holds a maximum of 20 people but most recommend 16-18 for comfort. Lots of restaurants will do a dining cruise but some are much better at it than others. If you are interested in doing one, just send us an email at info@sanantonioriverwalk.com. We will be happy to answer your questions, and send your information out so restaurants can contact you directly to go over your options.
The other option is to do a “community” dining cruise where you join others on a boat. They are done of Friday and Saturday nights. For more information on Riverwalk dining cruises just visit the link below.

Some groups prefer to do a cocktail or a cruise with drinks and appetizers. Those of course can be done as well but only on a private/charter basis. There are no “community” cocktail cruises. We frequently get asked if people can just bring their own food and drinks on a barge and do their dinner cruise that way. The answer of course is no, it has to be done through a restaurant or catering company. A dining cruise is a really fun way to see the river and have a great time. If you still have questions just email us and we will help you out. You will love it!
