Thank you to the Volunteer Princess team for making our wedding day and anniversary so special. We no longer live in the area but would gladly travel back to Tennessee for anniversaries to come. Knoxville peeps, whether you’re tying the knot or just looking for a fun and unique night out, look no further!
I had such a fun time on the Valentine’s Day cruise! Me and my friend had a gal’s day and this was the perfect spot for brunch! The staff was so sweet, the drinks were delicious, and I really enjoyed floating down the Tennessee River and looking at all the nature! I highly recommend going on one of the Cruises offered by the Volunteer Princess!
I came here for my husband’s business party, and what an amazing time we had. Food was good, the boat was beautiful, and the drinks were amazing and not overly priced. Staff all had great attitudes and services, and the captain is definitely full of jokes. They’ll let you drive the boat and go anywhere you want. If you have time and are looking for a couple hour stress free adventure, here is a good spot to come.
I had been searching around for a venue for my rehearsal dinner, and found the Volunteer Princess to be exactly what I needed. I reached out to them and got all of the information I needed (prices, packages, etc) immediately. Over the few months of planning and preparation, Tori communicated with me on updates, and answered all of my questions. She took care of everything I needed, and made my night so wonderful. My guests commented on how memorable riding that boat was. Highly recommend!
Ya’ll! Let me tell you about this man I’m dating!! He surprised me for Mother’s Day and brought me out on this fantastic cruise and we had an amazing afternoon! The food and the service were so good. The bartender was the very best ever. The views from the boat were so perfect – the weather was on point, so we got to go out and experience the wind and views. We got some great pictures and had a wonderful time mingling with the other families. The Captain even let us drive, which made it that much more memorable. Thank you, Volunteer Princess, for helping my man make my Mother’s Day so very special!
I have been on 5 different cruises and had a great experience every time. The boat is spacious, comfortable, and perfectly maintained. I found the crew to be very friendly and they always worked hard to accommodate any request. I have never had a bad meal, the appetizers and entrees are always hot and well prepared. I especially like how there is variation between the meals served on different cruises. My most recent cruise was on game day and it was the perfect place to go out before the game, especially since it is just a short walk to the stadium. I definitely recommend VPC.
My wife and I had a date night aboard the Volunteer Princess. It was amazing! The cruise at sunset is gorgeous, the food was delicious, and the staff is top notch. We enjoyed having dinner in the glass enclosed area and then relaxing on the comfy back deck. We will definitely be cruising with Volunteer Princess again! Thank you for the wonderful experience!
We surprised my mother in law with a sunset dinner cruise for an early bday present. It was AWESOME! Great food, great service and great views. Everything was very clean ad organized. Captain Chris was awesome as well as the rest of the staff. For what you get, it is really a great value. We did the dinner with the birthday package add on. Me and my wife are Knoxville locals and we’ll definitely be doing this again.
We rented the upper deck for a family reunion and it was a highlight! Lunch was great and the staff were Uber friendly and helpful! Soooo glad I called instead of assuming there were no dates available for our weekend!! The rain was an added treat to watch it roll in, cooled everything and finished by the time we reached the dock!!Thanks a million Tennessee Princess!
I had a great time last weekend on the Volunteer Princess Sailgate cruise! I was in Knoxville for parents weekend and booked this as an activity to do with my son before the game. They provided a delicious buffet (bar food) and drink tickets for 2 drinks per person (beer, wine, soda). We had our own private table by the window and it was great to see all of the sights along the Tennessee River (especially Neyland stadium and the Vol Navy!) . There was also plenty of outside space and an upstairs deck. I would definitely recommend this as a fun activity while in Knoxville!
Best dinner cruise! This is a very nice cruise, even if you choose not to have dinner! The staff are kind and wonderful, the beauty of the scenery is breathtaking! I highly recommend doing this during a full moon.Do this ride, it’s worth it and so affordable. This was my second time I brought a friend along to experience!
Great Christmas dinner cruise. Second time in a row that my family preferred to enjoy a holiday dinner cruise rather than a dinner show or other option. Wonderful, professional staff. Good food and superb beverages were served. Loved the holiday decorations on the ship. Already planning on next year’s voyage! Thanks so much.
Did this for my 21st birthday and had an absolute blast. The service was incredible and went above and beyond to ensure that our dinner was exceptional. The food was delicious and they offered a vegetarian option which my mother loved. The views were beautiful, the bar was great, and everyone had an amazing time. I definitely plan on doing this again. Truly a fabulous evening.
We booked a sunset dinner cruise with several of our friends. What a nice evening on the Tennessee River. We were celebrating 3 birthdays. The crew was polite, funny and efficient. They did a great job with everyone. The meal was delicious. We all enjoyed it very much.
My significant other and another family member enjoyed our brunch cruise on the Volunteer Princess Memorial Day weekend, and we really enjoyed the experience! The captain was friendly, and the staff was very welcoming, attentive, and helpful. The brunch was excellent – honestly, far better than what we had expected. Pancakes, bacon, salad, granola and yogurt, and many other options from the buffet proved to be a delicious meal, plus the option for alcoholic drinks was fabulous. The scenery was nice, and riding by the Volunteers’ sports facilities was really cool. Overall, highly recommend the cruise and it’s definitely a great value!
I shared this dinner cruise with some colleagues and we had a blast! We had a large group and the staff took great care of us. The scenery was beautiful and the food & drinks were divine! I had the salmon and it was perfection. I enjoyed every bite of every course served! I don’t think the staff was prepared for the number of drinks we ordered on such a short cruise but they made it work. We had a delightful time and I would definitely do the cruise again. Kudos to the staff for an amazing evening!
Took my father on the Father’s Day Lunch Cruise and we had an amazing time! From the ease of booking the reservation to the friendly, professional crew, to the excellent steak lunch, everything was perfect! Throw in the relaxing stroll down the Tennessee River and the great views of Neyland Stadium and it was a day that my dad and I will never forget! Thank you Volunteer Princess crew for a great day! Would highly recommend to anyone looking for a true first class experience in the Knoxville area!
We spent our Valentine’s Day/evening cruising the Tennessee River on the Volunteer Princess and what a pleasant experience it was! From the time we arrived and received greetings from the captain and a complementary red rose for my lady, until we were seated, the staff and arrangements were as I had imagined and planned, no disappointments at all! Dinner and drink service was exceptional, and there was plenty of staff members to attend to it all. The ship was very clean and well kept for its age and use. The food was served hot and it was very tasty! Price on drinks was very reasonable. All in all a great experience and highly recommended!
We thoroughly enjoyed our cruise on the Tennessee River. We thought the price was reasonable considering the cruise was two hours long and we were served a delicious lunch. The food was much better than I expected. The ride was smooth. Fun sightseeing. Sweet, attentive young woman served our drinks and meal. Chris, who took our phone reservation and piloted the boat was friendly and professional. I highly recommend this cruise for anyone looking for something fun and different to do in Knoxville.
