RiverQuest Charters

A scenic river cruise offers an impressive way to entertain clients and out-of-town visitors, enliven family gatherings and energize corporate outings.  View beautiful sights from the air-conditioned comfort of interior cabins, or from the covered observation deck.

We'll help you to plan and host an exciting onboard event that fits your style and suits your budget!

With a capacity of up to 120 guests, RiverQuest's award-winning vessel Explorer is the perfect setting for your next business or social event. Best of all, proceeds from your charter will beneift the exceptional RiverQuest education programs that have served Pittsburgh-region students since 1995.
